4 Estimating the Difference Between Two Population Means Let m 1 equal the mean of population 1 and m 2 equal the mean of population 2. The difference between the two population means is m 1 - m 2. To estimate m 1 - m 2, we will select a simple random sample of size n 1 from population 1 and a simple random sample of size n 2 from population 2. x 1 x 2 Let equal the mean of sample 1 and equal the mean of sample 2. The point estimator of the difference between the means of the populations 1 and 2 is. x x 1 2 Slide 4

5 Sampling Distribution of x Expected Value E( x x ) m m Standard Deviation (Standard Error) s x s1 s2 x n n x 1 2 where: s 1 = standard deviation of population 1 s 2 = standard deviation of population 2 n 1 = sample size from population 1 n 2 = sample size from population Slide 5

Interval Estimation of m 1 - m 2 : s 1 and s 2 Known Par, Inc. is a manufacturer of golf equipment and has developed a new golf ball that has been designed to provide extra distance. In a test of driving distance using a mechanical driving device, a sample of Par golf balls was compared with a sample of golf balls made by Rap, Ltd., a competitor. The sample statistics appear on the next slide. Slide 7

44 Inferences About the Difference Between Two Population Means: Matched Samples With a matched-sample design each sampled item provides a pair of data values. This design often leads to a smaller sampling error than the independent-sample design because variation between sampled items is eliminated as a source of sampling error. Slide 44

Slide 45

46 Inferences About the Difference Between Two Population Means: Matched Samples Example: Express Deliveries In testing the delivery times of the two services, the firm sent two reports to a random sample of its district offices with one report carried by UPX and the other report carried by INTEX. Do the data on the next slide indicate a difference in mean delivery times for the two services? Use a.05 level of significance. Slide 46
