Two gauge pressures P1 and P2 are measured in order to determine the difference pressure across an orifice, Pd. Several measurements are made of each and it is found that P1 = 25 +/- 1.8 mm Hg and P2 = 12 +/- 0.6 mm Hg. What is the estimate of the difference pressure Pd (mm Hg) and its standard deviation?
