Two-sample t-test
A two-sample t-test is used to test if the means of two populations equal.
The examples of analyses that quantify the impact of a factor include testing a pharmaceutical drug on patients or a marketing campaign on demand.
Recall that few assumptions need to be met to carry out a two-sample t-test:
- Random samples
- Independent observations
- Normally distributed underlying data
- Homogeneity of variances
The former two assumptions need to be met at the stage of designing the experiment. The latter two assumptions can be tested using the Shapiro-Wilk test and Bartlett's test respectively.
A company provided you with the df data frame. The sample column indicates the sample, and the value column contains numerical data. The dplyr package is available in your environment.
