9.2.13 A random sample of 35 SEC Division I football defensive
lineman have an average weight of 359.133 pounds with a standard
deviation of 33.436 pounds. A random sample of 32 Big 12 Division I
defensive lineman have an average weight of 357.467 pounds with a
standard deviation of 33.084 pounds.
a. Construct a 90% confidence interval for the difference
between the average weight of a football defensive lineman in the
SEC versus the Big 12.
b. Are Division I football defensive lineman bigger in the SEC than
in the Big 12? Use a significance level of 0.10.

This is for option 1. I wanted to know if the average weight of
Stanford’s starting offensive line is the same as the average
weight of my favorite professional football team the Los Angeles
Raiders. My hypothesis is the Raiders average would be higher since
they are a professional team. Stanford’s linemen weigh 305, 325,
300,319, and 295. Los Angeles lineman weighs 315, 315, 295, 305,
and 310. Assume a random sample was drawn.
