Assume that we have observations from two different populations. The data collected have sample sizes n1=25 and n2=29. The mean of sample 1 is 18 and the mean of sample 2 is 16. Furthermore, the sample standard deviations are s1=5 and s2=6. For these data, the estimated standard error of the difference of the two means is:
A. 11 B. 0.4 C. 1.5 D. 61 E. none of the preceding

Step 1
It is given that s1=5,s2=6,n1=25 and n2=29.
Step 2
The estimated standard error of the difference of the two means is obtained as follows:
Estimated standard error =s12n1+s22n1
=5225+6229
1.5
Thus, the correct option is C) 1.5.
