Two major automobile manufacturers have produced compact cars with engines of the same size. We are interested in determining whether or not there is a significant difference in the mean MPG (miles per gallon) when testing for the fuel efficiency of these two brands of automobiles. A random sample of eight cars from each manufacturer is selected, and eight drivers are selected to drive each automobile for a specified distance. The following data (in miles per gallon) show the results of the test. Assume the population of differences is normally distributed.
