Two samples from the same population both have n = 10 scores with M = 45. If the t statistic is computed for each sample, then what is the relationship between the two t values?
a. the two t statistics will be identical
b. the sample with the larger variance will produce the larger t statistic
c. the sample with the smaller variance will produce the larger t statistic
d. There is no way to predict the relationship between the two t statistics
