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)

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
