Question
11/11
Twenty laboratory mice were randomly divided into two groups of 10. Each group was fed according to a prescribed diet. At the end of 3 weeks, the weight gained I
each animal was recorded. Do the data in the following table justify the conclusion that the mean weight gained on diet B was greater than the mean weight gainec
on diet A, at the a = 0.05 level of significance? Assume normality. (Use Diet B - Diet A.)

(a) Find t. (Give your answer correct to two decimal places.)
(ii) Find the p-value. (Give your answer correct to four decimal places.)
(b) State the appropriate conclusion.
O Reject the null hypothesis, there is significant evidence that diet B had a greater weight gain.
O Reject the null hypothesis, there is not significant evidence that diet B had a greater weight gain.
O Fail to reject the null hypothesis, there is significant evidence that diet B had a greater weight gain.
O Fail to reject the null hypothesis, there is not significant evidence that diet B had a greater weight gain.
