Statistical Analysis: Two-Sample t-Test and Simple Linear Regression - Prof. Radu Lazar, Exams of Business Statistics

An overview of the two-sample t-test for comparing the means of two independent groups, with and without equal variances. Additionally, it introduces the concept of simple linear regression, which involves finding the line of best fit for a set of data points and testing for linearity and assumptions.
