To increase egg production, a farmer decided to increase the number of times the lights in his henhouse were on. Ten hens were randomly selected, and the number of eggs each produced was recorded. After one week of lengthened light time, the same hens were monitored again. The data is given here. At α = 0.05, can it be concluded that the increased light time increased egg production?
