Question

A new material will replace the old material only if there is significant evidence that the mean strength of the new material is more than 2 units higher than the mean strength of the old material.     

 

Sample from new material:     mean  is  98.064   ,     SD  is   5.6     and sample size is 13

Sample from old material:       mean  is  95.282   ,     SD  is   5.8      and sample size is 78

We do not know population standard deviations.

Consider the test

          ?0:????−????=2H0:μnew−μold=2   vs.  ?0:????−????>2H0:μnew−μold>2 

What is the p-value?       (Hint:  best to use software, or else the Desmos Calculator for the 2 sample T and Z test)

 Give as a decimal between 0 and 1 accurate to at least 4 decimal places.
