23. A real estate agent in the coastal region of Georgia wants to sell to the change in sale prices of houses by the sea with two fifty nine blocks from the sea A sample of 21 houses on the beach during the year compared to the latter showed the deviation of the selling price was $ 45,600. A sample of 18 firms, were also sold last year, showed one to three blocks from the sea, that the standard deviation is $ 21,330.

This is what I expected --

n1 = 21, S1 = 45.600, n2 = 18, S2 = 21,330

H0: S1 ≤ S2 vs. Ha: s1> s2

High-test z = 0.01
The critical z-score-= 2.3263

Decision rule: Reject H0 if the test Z-score> 2.3263

SE = sqrt [(S1 ^ 2 / 2N1) + (S2 ^ 2 / 2N2)] = sqrt [(45600 ^ 2 / 2 * 21) + (21330 ^ 2 / 2 * 18)] = 7883.31

S1 z = (- S2) / SE = (45.600-21.330) / 3.0786 = 7883.31

Since 3.0786> 2.3263 reject H0 and accept Ha
Conclusion: It seems more variation in the prices of the ocean, houses drudgery.
