Use R to create a table showing the average age of the survivors and the average age of the people who died.
a=aggregate(Age~Survived,data=titanic,FUN = mean)
a
## Survived Age
## 1 0 30.41530
## 2 1 28.42382
Average age of Survivors of Titanic: 28.42382
Average Age of people who died: 30.41530
Use R to run a t-test to test the hypothesis: “The Titanic survivors were younger than the passengers who died.”
Let us consider Null Hypothesis as:The is no significant difference between the ages of Survivors and ages of people who died
t.test(titanic$Age ~ titanic$Survived)
##
## Welch Two Sample t-test
##
## data: titanic$Age by titanic$Survived
## t = 2.1816, df = 667.56, p-value = 0.02949
## alternative hypothesis: true difference in means is not equal to 0
## 95 percent confidence interval:
## 0.1990628 3.7838912
## sample estimates:
## mean in group 0 mean in group 1
## 30.41530 28.42382
Since p-value of the test is 0.02949, p<0.05, we rejest the Null Hypothesis.
So, we can conclude that there is a signicant difference between ages of survivors and the ages of people who died, ie, the titanic survivors are younger than the passengers who died.
