Given two independent random samples with the following results:
n1=8x‾1=89s1=15n1=8x‾1=89s1=15 n2=8x‾2=126s2=20n2=8x‾2=126s2=20
Use this data to find the 98%98% confidence interval for the true difference between the population means. Assume that the population variances are equal and that the two populations are normally distributed.

Step 3 of 3 :
Construct the 98%98% confidence interval. Round your answers to the nearest whole number.
Since , the population variances are equal.
Now , df=degrees of freedom=n1-n2-2=8+8-2=14
The polled estimate is ,
Now , ; From t-table
Therefore , the 98% confidence interval is ,
