After setting all the parameters, use c to move the highlighting to “Execute” and then press
the function key shown below to perform the calculation.
• 1 (CALC) ... Performs the calculation.
Calculation Result Output Example
Left .............................. confi dence interval lower limit (left edge)
Right ............................ confi dence interval upper limit (right edge)
¯ x .................................. mean of sample
x σ n -1 ............................. sample standard deviation
(Displayed only for Data: List setting.)
n .................................. size of sample
u 2-Sample Z Interval
2-Sample Z Interval calculates the confi dence interval for the difference between two
population means when the population standard deviations of two samples are known.
The following is the confi dence interval.
α is the level of signifi cance. The value 100 (1 – α )
% is the confi dence level.
¯ x 1 : mean of sample 1
¯ x 2 : mean of sample 2
σ 1 : population standard deviation
of sample 1
σ 2 : population standard deviation
of sample 2
n 1 : size of sample 1
n 2 : size of sample 2
