A group of sevèn week-old chickens reared on a high protein diet weigh 12, 15, 11, 16, 14, 14 and 16 ounces, a second group of five chickens similarly treated except that they receive a low protein diet weighted 8, 10, 14, 10 and 13 ounces. Test whether there is sufficient evidence that additional protein has increased the weight of the chickens. (The table value of t for v = 10 at 5% level of significance is 2-33.)
