The null and alternate hypotheses are: H0: μ1 ≤ μ2 H1: μ1 >μ2 A random sample of 24 items from the first population showed amean of 113 and a standard deviation of 13. A sample of 18 itemsfor the second population showed a mean of 103 and a standarddeviation of 14. Use the 0.05 significant level.

b. State the decision rule for 0.050 significance level. (Roundyour answer to 3 decimal places.)
c. Compute the value of the test statistic. (Round your answerto 3 decimal places.)
d. What is your decision regarding the null hypothesis? Use the0.05 significance level.
