Suppose that the starting salaries of MBAS at Wilfrid Laurier University (WLU) are normally distributed with a mean of $62,000 and a standard deviation of $14,500. The starting salaries of MBAS at the university of Westem Ontario (UWO) are nomally distributed with a mean of $60,000 and a standard deviation of $18,300. If a random sample of 50 WLU MBAS and a random sample of 60 UWO MBAS are selected, what is the probability that the sample mean starting salary of WLU graduates will exceed that of UWO graduates?
