Answer:

SE= \sqrt{\frac{\sigma^2_1}{n_1}+\frac{\sigma^2_2}{n_2}}

And for this case if we have the same sample size we got the minimum value when we have the higher value fo n for each one and for this case would be the answer:

b. 120

Step-by-step explanation:

For this case we have the following info given:

n_1 = n_2 = 100

\mu_1 = 85.6

\mu_2 = 82.1

\sigma_1 =12.4

\sigma_2 = 8.9

We assume that the variable of interest is the linear combination of the two means and for this case the standard error would be given by:

SE= \sqrt{\frac{\sigma^2_1}{n_1}+\frac{\sigma^2_2}{n_2}}

And for this case if we have the same sample size we got the minimum value when we have the higher value fo n for each one and for this case would be the answer:

b. 120

liraira [26]

Answer:

n = 23

Step-by-step explanation:

if 1/2 (n-5) = 1/2 (23-5)

that must mean that n=23.

and if you are just looking for 1/2 of 23-5 that is just 9. (23-5) = 18 and half of 18 is 9
