6 Ansal is investigating the wingspans of Monarch butterflies in two different regions, \(X\) and \(Y\). He takes a random sample of 8 Monarch butterflies from region \(X\) and records their wingspans, \(x \mathrm {~cm}\). His results are as follows. $$\begin{array} { l l l l l l l l } 8.2 & 7.0 & 7.3 & 8.8 & 7.8 & 8.5 & 9.2 & 7.4 \end{array}$$ Ansal also takes a random sample of 9 Monarch butterflies from region \(Y\) and records their wingspans, \(y \mathrm {~cm}\). His results are summarised as follows. $$\sum y = 71.10 \quad \sum y ^ { 2 } = 567.13$$ Ansal suspects that the mean wingspan of Monarch butterflies from region \(X\) is greater than the mean wingspan of Monarch butterflies from region \(Y\). It is known that the wingspans of Monarch butterflies in regions \(X\) and \(Y\) are normally distributed with equal population variances. Test, at the 10\% significance level, whether Ansal's suspicion is supported by the data.
