Find probability that confidence intervals are disjoint Given $X_1, \ldots, X_{100}$ and $Y_1,\ldots,Y_{50}$ which are independent random samples from identical distribution $N(\mu,1)$. Each of two statisticians is trying to build confidence interval for $\mu$ on a confidence level of $0.8$ ($1-\alpha=0.8$). You have to find probability that those intervals are disjoint. I know i have to find $P(|\overline{X}-\overline{Y}|>
\frac{1\cdot1.28}{\sqrt{50}} + \frac{1\cdot1.28}{\sqrt{100}})$ which is $1-P(-0.309 \le \overline{X}-\overline{Y}\le 0.309)$ 
Question is what should i do next how to calculate this probability?
EDIT: Thus the solution is $1-(\phi(1.28)-(1-\phi(1.28)))\approx0.2$?

One interval has endpoints $\bar X \pm 1.28 \dfrac 1 {\sqrt{100}}$ and the other $\bar Y \pm 1.28 \dfrac1 {\sqrt{50}}.$
The intervals are disjoint if $\bar X + 1.28 \dfrac 1 {\sqrt{100}} < \bar Y - 1.28 \dfrac 1 {\sqrt{50}}$ or $\bar Y + 1.28 \dfrac 1 {\sqrt{50}} < \bar X - 1.28 \dfrac 1 {\sqrt{100}}.$
That happens if $\bar Y - \bar X < 1.28 \left( \dfrac 1 {\sqrt{100}} + \dfrac 1 {\sqrt{50}} \right)$ or $\bar X - \bar Y > 1.28 \left( \dfrac 1 {\sqrt{100}} + \dfrac 1 {\sqrt{50}} \right).$ In other words
$$
|\bar X - \bar Y| > 1.28 \left( \dfrac 1 {\sqrt{100}} + \dfrac 1 {\sqrt{50}} \right).
$$
This is equivalent to
$$
\frac{|\bar X - \bar Y|}{\dfrac 1 {\sqrt{100}} + \dfrac 1 {\sqrt{50}}} > 1.28.
$$
You have $\bar X - \bar Y \sim N\left(0, \dfrac 1 {100} + \dfrac 1 {50} \right) = N\left( 0, \dfrac 3 {100} \right),$ so that
$$
\frac{\bar X - \bar Y}{ \sqrt{3/100} } \sim N(0,1).
$$
\begin{align}
& \operatorname{standard deviation}\left( \frac{\bar X - \bar Y}{\dfrac 1 {\sqrt{100}} + \dfrac 1 {\sqrt{50}}} \right) = \frac{\operatorname{standard deviation}\left( \bar X - \bar Y \right)}{\dfrac 1 {\sqrt{100}} + \dfrac 1 {\sqrt{50}}} \\[10pt]
= {} & \dfrac{\sqrt{\dfrac 3 {100}}}{\dfrac 1 {\sqrt{100}} + \dfrac 1 {\sqrt{50}}} = \frac{\sqrt 3}{1 + \sqrt 2} = \sqrt 6 - \sqrt 3.
\end{align}
So
\begin{align}
& \Pr\left( \frac{|\bar X - \bar Y|}{\sqrt{\dfrac 1{100}} + \sqrt{\dfrac 1 {50}}} > 1.28 \right) = \Pr\left( \left. \frac{|\bar X - \bar Y|}{\sqrt{\dfrac 1{100}} + \sqrt{\dfrac 1 {50}}} \right/ (\sqrt6-\sqrt3)  > \frac{1.28}{\sqrt6-\sqrt3} \right) \\[10pt]
= {} & \Pr\left( |Z| > \frac{1.28}{\sqrt6-\sqrt 3} \right) \text{ where } Z\sim N(0,1).
\end{align}
If the variance were unknown but the variances of the two populations were equal then we would be working with a t-distribution.
