Overview
There are many important and meaningful
situations in which it becomes necessary
to compare two sets of sample data.
Definitions
Two Samples: Independent
The sample values selected from one
population are not related or somehow paired
with the sample values selected from the
other population.
If the values in one sample are related to the
values in the other sample, the samples are
dependent. Such samples are often referred
to as matched pairs or paired samples.
Example
Do male and female college students differ with respect to
their fastest reported driving speed?
Population of all male
college students
Sample of n1 = 17 males
report average of 102.1 mph
Population of all female
college students
Sample of n2 = 21 females
report average of 85.7 mph

The difference in the sample means is
102.06 - 85.71 = 16.35 mph
The Question
in Statistical Notation
Let M = the average fastest speed of all male students.
and F = the average fastest speed of all female students.
Then we want to know whether M  F.
This is equivalent to knowing whether M - F  0
All possible questions
in statistical notation
In general, we can always compare two averages by seeing
how their difference compares to 0:
This comparison… is equivalent to …
1  2
1 - 2  0
1 > 2
1 - 2 > 0
1 < 2
1 - 2 < 0
Set up hypotheses
• Null hypothesis:
– H0: M = F [equivalent to M - F = 0]
• Alternative hypothesis:
– Ha: M  F [equivalent to M - F  0]
Inferences about Two Means:
Independent and Small Samples
Pooled Two-Sample T Test
and T Interval
Assumptions:
1. The two samples are independent.
2. Both samples are normal or the two sample sizes are small, n1 < 30
and n2 < 30
3. Both variances are unknown but equal. Assume variances are
equal only if neither sample standard deviation is more than twice
that of the other sample standard deviation.

We compare the density of two different types
of brick. Assuming normality of the two
densities
distributions and unequal unknown
x1
variances, test if there is a difference in the
mean densities of two different types of brick.
