Task 4b

Table showing the average age of the survivors and the average age of the people who died.

table1<-aggregate(Age~Survived,data = titanic.df,mean)
table1
##   Survived      Age
## 1        0 30.41530
## 2        1 28.42382

Task 4c

t-test to test the following hypothesis: H2: The Titanic survivors were younger than the passengers who died.

t.test(Age~Survived,data=titanic.df)
## 
##  Welch Two Sample t-test
## 
## data:  Age by 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

The p-value is 0.00613

Since p<0.01,the hypothesis is true. Therefore, the Titanic survivors were younger than the passengers who died.
