An investigator wanted to construct a 92% confidence interval estimate for the difference of the means of  population A and population B. He took a simple random samples from each population, made the histograms above,  and computed a confidence interval of ( 5.8 , 15.7 ) according to the methods indicated in class. What was the ( approximate ) probability  that the investigator's procedure would produce an interval that would capture/surround the difference of the means of the given populations?   If it is not possible to answer this, enter -1. c07.p067.q008Short answer
