An investigator would like to conduct an independent samples t-test to compare means between two samples.The sample size for each sample is 10.Upon initial evaluation it is found that both samples are not likely to be drawn from normally distributed populations.Further,investigation resulted that the population variances are unknown and are quite different.Should the investigator continue with the analysis? Why or why not?
