Assume that there are two different brands (A and B) producing chocolates. The variance of chocolates are assumed to be different. One chooses 10 chococaltes of brand A and 20 chocolates of brand B and observes that the average weight of brand A sample is 56 gr and brand B is 54 gr. The sample variances for A and B are 1 and 2 gr respectively. What will be the t-statistic and can we conclude that the weights of these brands are different at 0.05 significance level?
Doğru Cevap: E) t=4.47, weights are different
