Assuming normal populations with equal standard deviations


Using independent random samples, a researcher is comparing the number of hours of television viewed last week for high school seniors versus sophomores. The results are shown here.

Assuming normal populations with equal standard deviations, does it appear that the average number of television hours per week could be equal for these two populations? What is the most accurate statement that could be made about the p-value for the test?

seniors : x1 = 3.9 hours
s1 = 1.2 hours
n1 = 32

Sophomores : x2 = 3.5 hours
s2 = 1.4 hours
n2 = 30
