When two independent small samples of sizes \(n_1\) and \(n_2\) with means \(\bar{x}_1\) and \(\bar{x}_2\) respectively are drawn from populations with identical population variances, the test-statistic is computed as :

  1. A \(t=\frac{\bar{x}_1-\bar{x}_2}{S_p \sqrt{\frac{1}{n_1}+\frac{1}{n_2}}}\), where \(S_p\) is pooled standard deviation.
  2. B t \(=\frac{\bar{x}_1-\bar{x}_2}{S_p \sqrt{\frac{1}{n_1}-\frac{1}{n_2}}}\), where \(S_p\) is pooled standard deviation.
  3. C t \(=\frac{\bar{x}_1+\bar{x}_2}{S_p \sqrt{\frac{1}{n_1}-\frac{1}{n_2}}}\), where \(S_p\) is pooled standard deviation.
  4. D t \(=\frac{\bar{x}_1+\bar{x}_2}{\sqrt{\frac{1}{n_1}-\frac{1}{n_2}}}\), where \(S_p\) is pooled standard deviation.

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(A) \(t=\frac{\bar{x}_1-\bar{x}_2}{S_p \sqrt{\frac{1}{n_1}+\frac{1}{n_2}}}\), where \(S_p\) is pooled standard deviation.

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

t \(=\frac{\bar{x}_1-\bar{x}_2}{S_p \sqrt{\frac{1}{n_1}+\frac{1}{n_2}}}\), where \(S_p\) is pooled standard deviation.
