Question
The following results come from two independent random samples taken of two populations.
Sample 1
n₁ = 60
Sample 2
n₂ = 25
x₂ = 11.6
1 = 2.4
%₂ = 3
(a) What is the point estimate of the difference between the two population means? (Use x₁-x₂.)
x₁ = 13.6
(b) Provide a 90% confidence interval for the difference between the two population means. (Use ₁ - X₂. Round your answers to two decimal places.)

(c) Provide a 95% confidence interval for the difference between the two population means. (Use x₁ - x₂. Round your answers to two decimal places.)
