Question 855581: Imagine for the national college admission test, women had a mean score of 70 and a variance of 16; men had a mean score of 69 and a variance of 25. If we sample 50 scores from women and 50 scores from men, what’s the standard error of the sample distribution of the difference between means?

--------
Ans: sqrt[(16/50)+(25/50)] = sqrt(66/50) = sqrt(33/25) = sqrt(33)/5
