u 2-Sample Z Test
This test is used when the standard deviations for two populations are known to test the
hypothesis. The 2-Sample
Z Test is applied to the normal distribution.
¯x1 : mean of sample 1
¯x2 : mean of sample 2
σ
1 : population standard deviation of sample 1
σ
2 : population standard deviation of sample 2
n1 : size of sample 1
n2 : size of sample 2
Perform the following key operations from the statistical data list.

The following shows the meaning of each item in the case of list data specifi cation.
Data..............................data type
μ
1 ................................. population mean value test conditions (“G
μ
2” specifi es
two-tail test, “<
μ
2” specifi es one-tail test where sample 1 is
smaller than sample 2, “>
μ
2” specifi es one-tail test where
sample 1 is greater than sample 2.)
σ
1 ................................. population standard deviation of sample 1 (
σ
1 > 0)
σ
2 ................................. population standard deviation of sample 2 (
σ
2 > 0)
List(1) ........................... list whose contents you want to use as sample 1 data
(List 1 to 26)
List(2) ........................... list whose contents you want to use as sample 2 data
(List 1 to 26)
Freq(1)..........................frequency of sample 1 (1 or List 1 to 26)
Freq(2)..........................frequency of sample 2 (1 or List 1 to 26)
Save Res ......................list for storage of calculation results (None or List 1 to 26)
