Question 99

Multiple Choice

Apply the nonpooled t-interval procedure to obtain the required confidence interval. You may assume that theassumptions for using the procedure are satisfied.
-A researcher was interested in comparing the heights of women in two different countries. Independent simple random samples of 9 women from country A and 9 women from country B
Yielded the following heights (in inches) .
 Country A  Country B 64.165.366.460.261.761.762.065.867.361.064.964.664.760.068.065.463.659.0\begin{array}{r|r}\text { Country A } & \text { Country B } \\\hline 64.1 & 65.3 \\66.4 & 60.2 \\61.7 & 61.7 \\62.0 & 65.8 \\67.3 & 61.0 \\64.9 & 64.6 \\64.7 & 60.0 \\68.0 & 65.4 \\63.6 & 59.0\end{array}

Determine a 90%90 \% confidence interval for the difference, μ1μ2\mu _ { 1 } - \mu _ { 2 } , between the mean height of women in country AA and the mean height of women in country BB .
(Note: xˉ1=64.744,xˉ2=62.556,s1=2.192,s2=2.697.\bar { x } _ { 1 } = 64.744 , \bar { x } _ { 2 } = 62.556 , s _ { 1 } = 2.192 , s _ { 2 } = 2.697 . )


A) 0.170.17 to 4.214.21 inches
B) 0.150.15 to 4.234.23 inches
C) 0.140.14 to 4.244.24 inches
D) 0.160.16 to 4.224.22 inches
