QUESTION:

Suppose that we are to observe two independent random samples:\(Y_{1}, Y_{2} \ldots \ldots . Y_{n}\) denoting a random sample from a normal đistribution with mean \(\mu_{1}\) and variance \(\sigma_{1}^{2}\); and \(X_{1}, X_{2}, \ldots, X_{m}\) denoting a random sample from another normal distribution with mean \(\mu_{2}\) and variance \(\sigma_{2}^{2}\) An approximation for \(\mu_{1}-\mu_{2}\) is given by \(Y^{-}-X^{-}\), the difference between the sample means. Find \(E\left(Y^{-}-X^{-}\right)\) and \(V\left(Y^{-}-X^{-}\right)\).

ANSWER:

Answer:

Step 1 of 1:

Suppose that we are to observe two independent random samples: ${Y}_{1},\ {Y}_{2},.......,{Y}_{n}$ denote a random sample from a normal distribution with mean ${\mu{}}_{1}$ and variance ${\sigma{}}_{1}^{2};$ and ${X}_{1},\ {X}_{2},.......,{X}_{n}$ denoting a random sample from another normal distribution with mean ${\mu{}}_{2}$ and variance ${\sigma{}}_{2}^{2}.$

An approximation for ${\mu{}}_{1}\ -{{\mu{}}_{\ }}_{2}$ is given by $\overline{Y}-\overline{X}$ , the difference between the sample means.

We need to find the value of $E(\overline{Y}-\overline{X})\ and\ V(\overline{Y}-\overline{X}).$

We can write $E(\overline{Y}-\overline{X})$ as,

$E(\overline{Y}-\overline{X})\ =E(\overline{Y})\ -E(\overline{X})$ ……(1)

The mean of a sample of $n\$ measured responses ${Y}_{1},\ {Y}_{2},.......,{Y}_{n}$ is given by

$\overline{Y}\ =\frac{1}{n}\sum\limits_{i\ =1}^{n}{Y}_{i}$
