Q2

The heat-producing capacities of coal from two different mines are measured in millions of calories
per ton. Eleven and nine samples of each mine were recorded as in the following table.
Mine A 8520 8320 8480 7990 8500 8090 8270 7860 7750 7450
Mine B 7720 7170 7980 7290 8360 7680 7750 8820 7660
Assume the distribution of the heat-producing capacities follow normal distribution.
