Question
Two catalysts may be used in a batch chemical process. Twelve batches were prepared using catalyst 1, resulting in an average yield of 86 and a sample standard deviation of 3. Fifteen batches were prepared using
catalyst 2, and they resulted in an average yield of 89 with a standard deviation of 2. Assume that yield measurements are approximately normally distributed with the same standard deviation.
Is there evidence to support the claim that catalyst 2 produces higher mean yield than catalyst 1? Use a=0.01.
What is the appropriate hypothesis test?
O Right-tailed test
O Middle-tailed test
Left-tailed test
O Two-tailed test
