Answer to Question #44850 in Statistics and Probability for venotini

Question

A men’s softball league is experimenting with a yellow baseball that is easier to see during night games. One way to judge the effectiveness is to count the number of errors. In a preliminary experiment, the yellow baseball was used in 10 games and the traditional white baseball was used in another 10 games. The number of errors in each game was recorded and is listed here. Can we infer that there are fewer errors on average when the yellow ball is used?

Yellow: 5 2 6 7 2 5 3 8 4 9
White: 7 6 8 5 9 11 8 3 6 10
