A real estate company is interested in testing whether the mean time that families in Peoria have been living in their current homes is different than families in Rockford. Assume that the two population variances are equal. A random sample of 100 families from Peoria and a random sample of 150 families in Rockford yield the following data on length of residence in current homes. Peoria:                               X̅G = 38 months                SG2 = 900      Rockford:                          X̅M = 49 months                SM2 = 1050 In this case what type of test would be most appropriate to see if the population mean months in the current home in Peoria and Rockfordis different?
