Math Problem Statement
In a current study, a random sample of 10 teachers from Texas and an independent random sample of 10 teachers from Indiana have been asked to report their annual income. The data obtained are as follows.
Annual income in dollars
Texas 48101, 22146, 39822, 31234, 25891, 28252, 38242, 42430, 35588, 34990
Indiana 49626, 44103, 38367, 28728, 29357, 57252, 39064, 38978, 28073, 36660
The population standard deviations for the annual incomes of teachers in Texas and in Indiana are estimated as $6200 and $6000, respectively. It is also known that both populations are approximately normally distributed. Construct a 90% confidence interval for the difference p₁₂ between the mean annual income of teachers from Texas (1) and the mean annual income of teachers from Indiana (4). Then find the lower limit and upper limit of the 90% confidence
interval
Carry your intermediate computations to at least three decimal places. Round your answers to at least two decimal places. (If necessary, consult a list of
