Question: what is the fastest you have ever driven a car? ___ mph.� The summary statistics are: Females: n = 102, mean = 88.4, standard deviation = 14.4 Males: n = 87, mean = 107.4, standard deviation = 17.4 Assuming that these students represent a random sample of college students, test whether the mean fastest speed driven by college men and college women is equal versus the alternative that is higher for men.

Answer: Assuming separate variances for men and women (you could test for whether this is true), the test statistic is (107.4 - 88.4)/sqrt[(17.4)^2/87 + (14.4)^2/102] = 8.09 std dev, which exceeds any reasonable standard, and we conclude the fastest speed is different for men and women
