Paper Details
Let (X1, Y1),...,...,(Xn, Yn) be a random sample from a bivariate normal distribution with parameters ?x,?Y,2x,?2Y> p. We are interested in testing
H0: ?x = ?Y versus H1: ?x ? ?Y.
(a) Show that the random variables Wi = Xi - Yi are iid n(?w,?2w).
(b) Show that the above hypothesis can be tested with the statistic
