An article compared the dielectric constants between two types of asphalt, HL3 and HL8, commonly used in pavements. For 42 specimens of HL3 asphalt the average dielectric constant was 5.92 with a standard deviation of 0.15, and for 37 specimens of HL8 asphalt the average dielectric constant was 6.05 with a standard deviation of 0.16. Can you conclude that the mean dielectric constant differs between the two types of asphalt? Find the P-value and state a conclusion.   The P-value is  . Round the answer to four decimal places.   We   (Click to select)   cannot   can  conclude that the mean dielectric constant differs between the two types of asphalt.
