A researcher believes a new diet should improve weight gain in laboratory mice. If ten control mice on the old diet gain an average of 4 ounces with a standard deviation of 0.3 ounces, while the average gain for ten mice on the new diet is 4.8 ounces with a standard deviation of 0.2 ounces, what is the P-value? (Assume that all conditions for inference are met.)
