10-2 Inference for a Difference in Means of Two Normal Distributions, Variances Known
Two populations – count them, 1,..2
10-2.2 Type II Error and Choice of Sample Size

The Next Example Louie Lush has collected the following data concerning the number
of ounces of beer consumed per week by the typical UD student and the typical Wright-State student.
Assuming the population variances are equal construct a 90% confidence interval for the difference in mean beer consumption between the two schools.
Data: Ounces per student per week

If you are interested in establishing a tavern near one of the two campus which one would you choose?
On to Excel…then Minitab
These 2-sample tests are great but what
can Excel do for me?
To the Ever Excellent Excel Examples
