The average expenditure in a sample survey of 41 male consumers was $135.67, and the average expenditure in a sample survey of 37 female consumers was $68.64. Based on past surveys, the standard deviation for male consumers is assumed to be $33, and the standard deviation for female consumers is assumed to be $20.What is the point estimate of the difference between the population mean expenditure for males and the population mean expenditure for females (to 2 decimals)?
At 99% confidence, what is the margin of error (to 2 decimals)?
Develop a 99% confidence interval for the difference between the two population means (to 2 decimals). Use z-table.
