    Consider the following competing hypotheses and accompanying sample data drawn independently from normally distributed populations. Use the t-table.
     
    H0: μ1 − μ2 ≥ 0
    HA: μ1 − μ2 < 0
       = 249
    = 272

    Calculate the value of the test statistic under the a
ssumption that the population variances are unknown but equal. (Negative value should be indicated by a minus sign. Round your answer to 2 decimal places.)

    Calculate the value of the test statistic under the assumption that the population variances are unknown and are not equal. (Negative value should be indicated by a minus sign. Round your answer to 2 decimal places.)
