Question

A materials engineer is working in a research project to evaluate the effect of one type of admixture on the compressive strength of concrete. He tested eight mortar cubes made with admixture and eight others without admixture after 28 days of curing. The compressive strengths of cubes in psi with and without admixture are shown in Table P6.40.
Using the statistical t-test, is there a significant difference between the means
of the compressive strengths of the two cement mortars at a level of signifi-
cance of 0.10?
