Interval Estimate of Population Mean with Known Variance

The Mean score of random sample of 49 Grade 11 students who took the first periodic test is
calculated to e 78 the population variance is known to be .16. 95% confidence interval is assumed.

Confidence Interval for the difference between two population mean

A group of 15 students was taught using the Modern way of teaching English. A second group of
12 students was taught using the traditional way of teaching English. At the end of the grading period the
teacher gave the two groups exactly the same written test. The average of the first group was 95 and a
standard deviation was 9 while the average of the second group was 87 and the standard deviation was
6. Assuming that 95% confidence interval must be satisfied find the Following:
