... Table B in the back of the book gives critical values t* for the t distributions. Each row in the table contains critical values for the t distribution whose degrees of freedom appear at the left of the row. For convenience, several of the more common confidence levels C (in percents) are given at t ...

... Lets first calculate the degrees of freedom. The following formula is appropriate whenever a t score is used to analyze the difference between means. DF = (s21 /n1 + s22 /n2 )2 /[(s21 /n1 )2 /(n1 − 1)] + [(s22 /n2 )2 /(n2 − 1)] In our case this value is approximately 55. 95% CI = 8.8 ±t0.975,55 18.1 ...
