A stress analysis was conducted on random samples of epoxy-bonded joints from two species of wood. A random sample of 120 joints from species A had a mean shear stress of 1250 psi and a standard deviation of 350 psi, and a random sample of 90 joints from species B had a mean shear stress of 1400 psi and a standard deviation of 250 psi. Find a 98% confidence interval for the difference in mean shear stress between the two species.
