3 Why do we eed to compare two populatios? You have just received a job offer i two differet coutries with the same salary. You wat to ivest your moey ito two differet stock markets. A pharmaceutical compay just aouced a ew pai killer that is better tha a old oe. A bak maager itroduced a ew servig policy that reduces the waitig time. You wat to decide betwee two cars 3

4 Ifereces About the Differece Betwee Two Populatio Meas: s 1 ad s 2 Kow Iterval Estimatio of m 1 m 2 Hypothesis Tests About m 1 m 2 4

5 Estimatig the Differece Betwee Two Populatio Meas Let m 1 equal the mea of populatio 1 ad m 2 equal the mea of populatio 2. The differece betwee the two populatio meas is m 1 - m 2. To estimate m 1 - m 2, we will select a simple radom sample of size 1 from populatio 1 ad a simple radom sample of size 2 from populatio 2. x 1 2 Let equal the mea of sample 1 ad x 2 equal the mea of sample 2. The poit estimator of the differece betwee the meas of the populatios 1 ad 2 is. x x 5

6 Samplig Distributio of x Expected Value x x 1 x 2 Stadard Deviatio (Stadard Error) s s s x 1 x where: s 1 = stadard deviatio of populatio 1 s 2 = stadard deviatio of populatio 2 1 = sample size from populatio 1 2 = sample size from populatio 2 6

7 Iterval Estimate Iterval Estimatio of m 1 - m 2 : s 1 ad s 2 Kow s s x 1 x 2 z / where: 1 - is the cofidece coefficiet 7

8 Iterval Estimatio of m 1 - m 2 : s 1 ad s 2 Kow Example: Par Products Par Products is a maufacturer of golf equipmet ad has developed a ew ball that has bee desiged to provide extra distace. I a test of drivig distace usig a mechaical drivig 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 o the ext slide. 8

9 Iterval Estimatio of m 1 - m 2 : s 1 ad s 2 Kow Example: Par Products Sample Size Sample Mea Sample #1 Par Sample #2 Rap 120 balls 80 balls 275 metres 258 metres Based o data from previous drivig distace tests, the two populatio stadard deviatios are kow with s 1 = 15 metres ad s 2 = 20 metres. Let us costruct a 95% cofidece iterval estimate of the differece betwee the mea drivig distaces of the two brads of golf ball. 9

10 Estimatig the Differece Betwee Two Populatio Meas Populatio 1 Par Products Golf Balls m 1 = mea drivig distace of Par golf balls m 1 m 2 = differece betwee the mea distaces Populatio 2 Rap Ltd. Golf Balls m 2 = mea drivig distace of Rap golf balls Simple radom sample of 1 Par golf balls x 1 = sample mea distace for the Par golf balls Simple radom sample of 2 Rap golf balls x 2 = sample mea distace for the Rap golf balls x 1 - x 2 = Poit Estimate of m 1 m 2 10

11 Poit Estimate of m 1 - m 2 Poit estimate of m 1 m 2 = x 1 - x 2 where: = = 17 metres m 1 = mea distace for the populatio of Par Products golf balls m 2 = mea distace for the populatio of Rap Ltd golf balls 11

12 Iterval Estimatio of m 1 - m 2 : s 1 ad s 2 Kow s s (15) (20) x 1 - x 2 ± z a / 2 + = 17 ± or metres to metres We are 95% cofidet that the differece betwee the mea drivig distaces of Par Products balls ad Rap Ltd balls is to metres. 12

At the 0.01 level of sigificace, the sample evidece idicates the mea drivig distace of Par golf balls is greater tha the mea drivig distace of Rap golf balls. 17

At the 5% sigificace level, we coclude that the kilometres-per-litre (kpl) performace of E cars is greater tha the kilometres-per-litre performace of J cars. 32

33 Ifereces About the Differece Betwee Two Populatio Meas: Matched Samples With a matched-samples desig each sampled item provides a pair of data values. This desig ofte leads to a smaller samplig error tha the idepedet-samples desig because variatio betwee sampled items is elimiated as a source of samplig error. 33

34 Ifereces About the Differece Betwee Two Populatio Meas: Matched Samples Example: Express Deliveries A Lodo-based firm has documets that must be quickly distributed to brach offices throughout Europe. The firm must decide betwee two delivery services, UPX (Uited Parcel Express) ad INTEX (Iteratioal Express), to trasport its documets. 34

35 Ifereces About the Differece Betwee Two Populatio Meas: Matched Samples Example: Express Deliveries I testig the delivery times of the two services, the firm set two reports to a radom sample of its Europea offices with oe report carried by UPX ad the other report carried by INTEX. Do the data o the ext slide idicate a differece i mea delivery times for the two services? Use a 0.05 level of sigificace. 35

Before the ew campaig bega, a telephoe survey of 150 households i the test market area showed 60 households aware of the cliet s product. The ew campaig has bee iitiated with TV ad ewspaper advertisemets ruig for three weeks. 44

45 Iterval Estimatio of p 1 - p 2 Example: Market Research Associates A survey coducted immediately after the ew campaig showed 120 of 250 households aware of the cliet s product. Do the data support the positio that the advertisig campaig has provided a icreased awareess of the cliet s product? 45
