Question

answer 

An efficiency manager is evaluating the quality of sportswear manufactured by two brands - A and B. She wishes to test whether the difference between the mean number of faulty pieces supplied by
the brands in each of their consignments is zero or not. For this, the manager collects data from the two brands. Suppose that the mean number of faulty pieces supplied by the brands are
independent of each other.
Let n denote the number of consignments for which the data was collected, X denote the sample mean of the number of faulty pieces supplied per consignment by each brand, and S denote the
sample standard deviation in the number of faulty pieces supplied per consignment by each brand. The given table shows the data collected.

The manager's null hypothesis would be that the difference between the mean number of faulty pieces supplied per consignment by brands A and B is
The manager's alternative hypothesis would be that the difference between the mean number of faulty pieces supplied per consignment by brands A and B is
The standard error of the difference between the sample means is:
