A Garden Seed Wholesaler Wishes to Test the Claim That $\begin{array}{rrrrrrr}\hline \text { Pelletized: } & 9 & 9 & 9 & 8 & 7 & 8 \\\text { Control: } & 9 & 10 & 11 & 13 & 9 & 11 \\\hline\end{array}$

question 28

True/False

A garden seed wholesaler wishes to test the claim that tomato seeds germinate faster when each individual seed is "pelletized" within a coating of corn starch. The table below shows the germination times, in days, of six pelletized seeds. The table also shows the germination times in days of six un-coated seeds (the controls).
$\begin{array}{rrrrrrr}\hline \text { Pelletized: } & 9 & 9 & 9 & 8 & 7 & 8 \\\text { Control: } & 9 & 10 & 11 & 13 & 9 & 11 \\\hline\end{array}$
Can you conclude that the mean germination time for pelletized seeds is less than the mean for the un-pelletized seeds? Use the $\alpha = 0.05$ level of significance.
