Our environment is very sensitive to the amount of ozone in the upper atmosphere. The level of ozone normally found is 4.7 parts/million (ppm). A researcher believes that the current ozone level is not at the normal level. The mean of 13 samples is 4.9 ppm with a standard deviation of 1.0. Does the data support the claim at the 0.1 level? Assume the population distribution is approximately normal. Step 3 of 3: Make the decision to reject or fail to reject the null hypothesis.
Total plasma volume is important in determining the required plasma component in blood replacement therapy for a person undergoing surgery.
