... For a mathematician it helps to introduce some more notation. I’ll refer to the envelopes as A and B, and the amounts in them as A and B. Let me introduce X to stand for the smaller of the two amounts and Y to stand for the larger. I think of all four as being random variables; but this includes th ...

... P-value is smaller than 2(0.0005) = 0.0010 since t = 14.594 is greater than t* = 5.041 (upper tail area = 0.0005) (Table C) Conclusion: Since the P-value is smaller than a = 0.001, there is very strong evidence that the mean pollution levels are different for the two areas of the city. ...

Simulation of the Sampling Distribution of the Mean Can Mislead

The first of these properties often is thought to be obvious to students, which perhaps it is for symmetric populations, s ...

Chapter 8 Comparing Two Means
... First consider a situation where the only difference between the population distributions of two continuous variables, X1 and X2 , is their location on the number line. In other words, suppose that the density curve for X2 is identical to the density curve for X1 except for its location on the numbe ...

This chapter will look at methods of confidence intervals and hypothesis testing for two populations. Since t ...
