An engineer suspects that a power plant in the city is increasing the air pollution in the vicinity of the plant. A
sample of measurements of carbon monoxide (in mg/m3 of air) in the vicinity of the plant (Group 1) is obtained
for comparison with another sample obtained from other locations (Group 2) in the city.
Dataset is available at pollution.txt↓
Assume that the measurements for both groups follow a normal distribution and the populations' variances are
equal. By the 95% confidence interval for the difference between the means of the first group and the second
group. i.e., ₁-2, we can conclude that
A: With 95% confidence, we have evidence to indicate that there is a difference between the amount of
carbon monoxide in the vicinity of the plant and other places.
B: With 95% confidence, we have NO evidence to indicate that there is a difference between the amount of
carbon monoxide in the vicinity of the plant and other places.
