A. The point estimate of μ1 − μ2 is calculated using the value of x1 - x2, therefore:
μ1 − μ2 = x1 – x2 =
7.82 – 5.99
μ1 − μ2 = 1.83
B. The formula for
confidence interval is given as:
Confidence interval
= (x1 –x2) ± z σ
where z is a value
taken from the standard distribution tables at 99% confidence interval, z =
2.58
and σ is calculated
using the formula:
σ = sqrt [(σ1^2 /
n1) + (σ2^2 / n2)]
σ = sqrt [(2.35^2 /
18) + (3.17^2 / 15)]
σ = 0.988297
Going back to the
confidence interval:
Confidence interval
= 1.83 ± (2.58) (0.988297)
Confidence interval
= 1.83 ± 2.55
Confidence interval
= -0.72, 4.38

Problems of normally distributed samples can be solved using the z-score formula.
In a set with mean and standard deviation , the z-score of a measure X is given by:
Z = x - μ / σ
Z-scores are used to measure how far a measure is from the mean. We find the p-value associated with this Z-score by looking at the z-score table after finding the Z-score. The p-value represents the probability that the measure is smaller than X, which is the percentile of X. The probability of the measure being greater than X is calculated by subtracting 1 from the pvalue.
μ = $55,000 σ = $6,000
This is the pvalue of Z when X = $39,600. So
z = 39600 - 55000 / 6000
z = -2.5
z = -2.5 has a o value of 0.0084

1/4 or .25 because 6 * 4 = 24 so 6 would be a quarter of 24
