Two catalysts in a batch chemical process are being compared for their effect on the output of the process reaction. A sample of 11 batches was prepared using catalyst 1 and gave an average yield of 94 with a sample standard deviation of 4. A sample of 15 batches was prepared using catalyst 2 and gave an average yield of 89 and a sample standard deviation of 5. Find a 99% confidence interval for the difference between the population means, assuming that the populations are approximately normally distributed with equal variances. Click here to view page 1 of the table of critical values of the t-distribution. Click here to view page 2 of the table of critical values of the t-distribution. Let μ, be the population mean for catalyst 1 and let μ₂ be the population mean for catalyst 2. The confidence interval is (Round to two decimal places as needed.)
