(a) Use a calculator with mean and standard deviation keys to verify thatÂ
 and s2≈ 0.21.
(b) Let μ1be the population mean for x1and let μ2be the population mean forx2. Find a 99% confidence interval for μ1- μ2.
(c) Interpretation Explain what the confidence interval means in the context of this problem. Does the interval consist of numbers that are all positive? All negative? of different signs? At the 99% level of confidence, is the population mean petal length of Iris virginica longer than that of Iris setosa?
(d) Check Requirements Which distribution (standard normal or Student’s t) did you use? Why? Do you need information about the petal length distributions? Explain.
