10 Engineers are investigating the speed of the internet connection received by households in two towns \(P\) and \(Q\). The speeds, in suitable units, in \(P\) and \(Q\) are denoted by \(x\) and \(y\) respectively. For a random sample of 50 houses in town \(P\) and a random sample of 40 houses in town \(Q\) the results are summarised as follows.
$$\Sigma x = 240 \quad \Sigma x ^ { 2 } = 1224 \quad \Sigma y = 168 \quad \Sigma y ^ { 2 } = 754$$
Calculate a \(95 \%\) confidence interval for \(\mu _ { P } - \mu _ { Q }\), where \(\mu _ { P }\) and \(\mu _ { Q }\) are the population mean speeds for \(P\) and \(Q\).
Test, at the \(1 \%\) significance level, whether \(\mu _ { P }\) is greater than \(\mu _ { Q }\).
