   Question

   From each of two normally distributed populations with equal variances a sample is drawn.______________. Sample 1: n = 19, mean = 55, sd = 3.27 Sample 2: n = 17, mean = 38, sd = 8.58. The pooled variance estimator takes the value 40.3. It is tested whether the population averages are equal. The corresponding test size follows, if the null hypothesis is TRUE,

   
   
   1. FALSE: An F-distribution with 19 and 17 degrees of freedom
   2. FALSE: An F-division with 18 and 16 degrees of freedom
   3. TRUE: A T distribution with 34 degrees of freedom
   4. FALSE: A T distribution with 36 degrees of freedom
   
   
   1. An F-distribution with 19 and 17 degrees of freedom: Incorrect
   2. An F-division with 18 and 16 degrees of freedom: Incorrect
   3. A T-division with 34 degrees of freedom: Correct
   4. A T-division with 36 degrees of freedom: Incorrect
