2. Using our sample data, construct a 95% confidence interval for the mean salary difference
between the genders in the population. How does this compare to the findings in week 2,
question 2?
Difference
St Err.
T value
Low
to
High
Can the means be equal? Yes or No. Why?
Why is using a two sample tool (t-test, confidence interval) a better choice than using 2 one-
sample techniques when comparing two samples?

Two-sample T for Salary

0 25 52.3 18.6 3.7

Difference = mu (0) - mu (1)
Estimate for difference: 15.06
95% CI for difference: (4.77, 25.35)
T-Test of difference = 0 (vs not =): T-Value = 2.94 P-Value = 0.005 DF = 48
Difference = 15.06
standard error of difference between means = 5.107
T value = 2.94
Low = 4.77

High =25.35
No, The means are not equal . ( since P-value is very low i.e. 0005)
We use two sample t-test to the average salary differences between the two genders. This gives
whether there is truly difference exists between the genders . If we use one sample individual
test, then this test gives the individual averages confidence interval , from which we can't
interpret the difference of their averages.
