The null and alternate hypotheses are:

H0: μ1 ≤ μ2
H1: μ1 > μ2

A random sample of 25 items from the first population showed a mean of 106 and a standard deviation of 12. A sample of 15 items for the second population showed a mean of 104 and a standard deviation of 6. Assume the sample populations do not have equal standard deviations and use the 0.10 significant level.
