Methodology:
In order to test the hypothesis a t test for two means with equal variance was used with a significance level α = .05. The hypothesis is this:
\(H0:\ \ average\ female\ trip\ duration\ =\ average\ male\ trip\ duration\)
\(H1:\ average\ female\ trip\ duration\ne average\ male\ trip\ duration\)
The reasoning for this test is that is has high robustness against non-normality. Figure 1 shows that the distributions are not normal and have a long right tail. An alternative to the t test was a z-test however the biggest issue was non-normality with the dataset.
Conclusion:
The value of the t test is is 0. The t test shows that we cannot reject the null hypothesis that there is no difference between the trip durations of males and females.
