How much training time does it take to become a world-class breaststroke swimmer? A survey published in The American Journal of Sports Medicine reported the number of meters per week swum by two groups of swimmers-those who competed only in breaststroke and those who competed in the individual medley (which includes breaststroke). The number of meters per week practicing the breaststroke swim was recorded and the summary statistics are shown below.

Is there sufficient evidence to indicate a difference in the average number of meters swum by these two groups of swimmers? Test using α = .01.
