City A | City B | |
Mean | 38 | 43 |
S.D. | 6.8 | 7.5 |
(a) Do the data provide strong evidence that the mean ages are different in city A and city B? (Test at α = 0.02)
(b) Construct a 98% confidence interval for the different in mean ages between A and B.
(c) Construct a 98% confidence interval for the mean age for city A and city B individually.
