A random sample of 100 families from Gotham and a random sample of 150 families in Metropolis yield the following data on length of residence in current homes: ¯X = 35 months, SG= 900, ¯X= 50 months, SM2 = 1050. Suppose that the critical values of the relevant hypothesis test at a level of significance of 0.01 is t = -2.33 and the test statistic for the difference between the sample means is t = -3.69. Which of the following represents the correct conclusion?
