NUMBER IN POPULATION 1 = SUM OF THE MEASUREMENTS IN POPULATION 1 =
NUMBER IN POPULATION 2 = SUM OF THE MEASUREMENTS IN POPULATION 2 =
Variance of the population 1 = Variance of the population 2 =
Enter standard deviation if variance not available pop 1 pop 2 = Significance level 1% 5% 10%
Z score = Null hypothesis
