A survey of 300 students at 2 year colleges found that students work an average of 20.2 hours per week with a standard deviation of 3.2 hours. A survey of 225 students at private universities found that students work an average of 19.8 hours per week with a standard deviation of 1.7 hours. At a 0.05 level of significance, does this data show that 2 year college students and private unversity students work an equivalent amount of time?
