To construct a confidence interval for the difference between two population means μ₁-H₂, use the formula shown below when both population standard deviations are known, and either both populations are normally distributed or both n₁ ≥ 30 and n₂ ≥30. Also, the samples must be randomly selected and independent. 0² 0²/ (x₁-x₂) -Zc ₂
