We Are Interested in Comparing the Average Supermarket Prices of Two

We are interested in comparing the average supermarket prices of two leading colas. Our sample was taken by randomly selecting eight supermarkets and recording the price of a six-pack of each brand of cola at each supermarket. The data are shown in the following table: $$\begin{array}{l}\begin{array} { c | c c | c } &\text { Price }\\\text { Supermarket } & \text { Brand 1 } & \text { Brand 2 } & \text { Difference } \\\hline 1 & \$ 2.25 & \$ 2.30 & \$ - 0.05 \\2 & 2.47 & 2.45 & 0.02 \\3 & 2.38 & 2.44 & - 0.06 \\4 & 2.27 & 2.29 & - 0.02 \\5 & 2.15 & 2.25 & - 0.10 \\6 & 2.25 & 2.25 & 0.00 \\7 & 2.36 & 2.42 & - 0.06 \\8 & 2.37 & 2.40 & - 0.03 \\\hline & \mathrm { x } _ { 1 } = 2.3125 & \mathrm { x } _ { 2 } = 2.3500 & \mathrm {~d} = - 0.0375 \\& \mathrm {~s} _ { 1 } = 0.1007 & \mathrm {~s} _ { 2 } = 0.0859 & \mathrm {~s} _ { \mathrm { d } } = 0.0381\end{array}\end{array}$$ Find a 98% confidence interval for the difference in mean price of brand 1 and brand 2.

A) $0.0375 \pm 0.0347$
B) $0.0375 \pm 0.1393$
C) $0.0375 \pm 0.0404$
D) $0.0375 \pm 0.0471$
