In a two-sample t-test, suppose you obtain sample means equal to 25 in sample 1, and 26 in sample 2. Based on this information only, the following is/are true:   a) since the sample means are obviously different, the null hypothesis will necessarily be rejected b) the mean difference is necessarily statistically significant c) the mean difference of 1 implies the alternative hypothesis is true d) the mean difference of 1 could have arisen due to chance or random variation
