Test t

The document discusses the use of t-test probabilities to determine the likelihood that the null hypothesis is correct when comparing two sample means. It explains that a probability of 0.05 is commonly used as a critical value, indicating a 5% confidence level. Additionally, it provides a table of t values for various degrees of freedom and significance levels.
