A random sample of size n 1 equals 31 results in a sample mean of 123.3 and a sample standard deviation of 8.5. An independent sample of size n 2 equals 50 results in a sample mean of 129.8 and sample standard deviation of 7.3. Does this constitute sufficient evidence to conclude that the population means differ at the alpha equals 0.01 level of significance?

what are ur choices?

step-by-step explanation:

points a and b are equidistant from the desired line, so the line you find by using them will go through point r.

using points other than a and b will give the desired line only if they are equidistant from r. if they are randomly located, the perpendicular line you create will not necessarily go through point r, hence will not be a solution to the problem.

the answer is a
