"Example 7.17 : Below are given the gain in weights in (kgs) of pigs fed om two diets A
and B.
Diet A :25, 32, 30, 34,24, 14, 32, 24, 30,31, 35, 25, Gain in weight
Diet B : 44,34, 22, 10,47, 31, 40, 30, 32,35, 18, 21, 5, 29, 22, | Gain in weigh
Test if, the two diets differ significantly as regards their efect on increase in weight.
Solution: Null hypothesis, Hy : sy=ny. Le. there is no significant difference
between the mean increase in weight due to diets A and B.

And ny =12, ng =15.
Under null hypothesis (Ho) :

Clearly calculated value of It! is less than tabulated value of t, Hy may be accepted at
5% level of significance.
