Two-sample t-test for equal group meansH = 0; p =0.7459; The logical value 0 indicates the null hypothesis is accepted at the default 0.05 significance level. The p-value for the test is high. There is sufficient evidence that the means are equalH = 0; p =0.8637; There is sufficient evidence that the means are equalH = 0; p =0.9016; There is sufficient evidence that the means are equal
