11 Large-Sample Confidence Interval for (μ 1 μ 2 ) 2 x 1 x 2 z 2 x1 x 2 x x 1 2 z n 1 n 2
12 Large-Sample Test of Hypothesis for (µ 1 µ 2 ) One-Tailed Test H 0 : (µ 1 µ 2 ) = D 0 H a : (µ 1 µ 2 ) < D 0 [or H a : (µ 1 µ 2 ) > D 0 ] where D 0 = Hypothesized difference between the means (the difference is often hypothesized to be equal to 0) Test statistic: z x 1 x 2 D 0 x1 x 2 Rejection region: z < z [or z > z when H a : (µ 1 µ 2 ) > D 0 ] n 1 x1 x 2 n 2 s 2 1 s 2 2 n 1 n 2
13 Large-Sample Test of Hypothesis for (µ 1 µ 2 ) Two-Tailed Test H 0 : (µ 1 µ 2 ) = D 0 H a : (µ 1 µ 2 ) D 0 where D 0 = Hypothesized difference between the means (the difference is often hypothesized to be equal to 0) Test statistic: z x 1 x 2 D 0 x1 x 2 Rejection region: z > z n 1 x1 x 2 n 2 s 2 1 s 2 2 n 1 n 2
14 Conditions Required for Valid Large-Sample Inferences about (μ 1 μ 2 ) 1. The two samples are randomly selected in an independent manner from the two target populations. 2. The sample sizes, n 1 and n 2, are both large (i.e., n 1 30 and n 2 30). [Due to the Central Limit Theorem, this condition guarantees that the sampling distribution of x 1 x 2 will be approximately normal regardless of the shapes of the underlying 2 probability distributions of the populations. Also, s and s 2 will provide good approximations to 1 and when the samples are both large.] 2 2

77 7.5 Determining Sample Size
78 Determination of Sample Size for Estimating µ 1 µ 2 To estimate (μ 1 μ 2 ) with a given margin of error ME and with confidence level (1 ), use the following formula to solve for equal sample sizes that will achieve the desired reliability: n 1 n 2 z (ME) 2 You will need to substitute estimates for the values of 2 and 2 before solving for the sample size. These 2 2 estimates might be sample variances s 1 and s 2 from prior sampling (e.g., a pilot sample) or from an educated (and conservatively large) guess based on the range that is, s R/4. 1 2
79 Determination of Sample Size for Estimating p 1 p 2 To estimate (p 1 p 2 ) with a given margin of error ME and with confidence level (1 ), use the following formula to solve for equal sample sizes that will achieve the desired reliability: n 1 n 2 z 2 2 p 1 q 1 p 2 q 2 (ME) 2 You will need to substitute estimates for the values of p 1 and p 2 before solving for the sample size. These estimates might be based on prior samples, obtained from educated guesses, or, most conservatively, specified as p 1 = p 2 =.5.
