A taxi company is trying to decide whether to purchase brand A or brand B tires for its fleet of taxis. To estimate the difference in the two brands, an experiment is conducted using 16 of each brand. The tires are run until they wear out. The results are given in the table below. Compute a 95% confidence interval for μA - μB assuming the populations to be approximately normally distributed. You may not assume that the variances are equal. Brand A S₁ = 5000 kilometers X₁ = 34,900 kilometers x2 = 37,600 kilometers Brand B S₂ = 6400 kilometers Click here to view page 1 of the table of critical values of the t-distribution.
