Question

In order to evaluate the performance of the artificial pancreas, a researcher randomly draw 5 rats as a control group, and draw other 5 rats as a treatment group. The control group did not receive the artificial pancreas, the treatment group did. The research wanted to compare the blood-sugar readings for the treatment group with those of the control group. The treatment group has a sample mean blood-sugar reading Y = 400 unit and a standard deviation Si = 80 unit. The control group has a sample mean blood-sugar reading Y, = 200 unit and a standard deviation S2 = 50 unit. Assume the population variances are not equal, calculate the standard error for the difference of the sample means Ý -Y (Round to three decimal places)

Answer 1

Answer: 42.190

Explanation:

From the question, the population variances are not equal. The calculation has been attached in the picture below.

The answer is 42.190 to 3 decimal places.
