considered safe for agricultural use. A well in Texas is used to water cotton crops. This well is tested on a regular basis for arsenic.
A random sample of 36 tests gave a sample mean of x = 7.1 ppb arsenic, with s = 2.2 ppb. Does this information indicate that
the mean level of arsenic in this well is less than 8 ppb? Use a = 0.01.
