![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.

Let μ₁ be the population mean for catalyst 1 and let μ₂ be the population mean for catalyst 2.
The confidence interval is ] < H₁ = H₂ < [
