Interpret the following three sets of data using two sample t-testing. Each of these columns of data represent a different soda bottling line, with the values representing the amount of soda per bottle in ounces. The business question being asked for each of the three comparisons is "do the two bottling lines bottle the same volume of soda on average, bearing in mind that the sample difference that you may observe could just be coincidence."

Data sets:

  1. C7 v C9
  2. C7 v C8
  3. C7 v C3

(Hint: always check for homogeneity before conducting 2 sample t-tests.)
