Samples were collected from two ponds in the Bahamas to compare salinity values (in
parts per thousand). Several samples were drawn at each site.
Pond 1: 36.72, 37.71, 37.01, 37.45, 38.85, 37.02, 37.03
Pond 2: 38.66, 38.24, 38.71, 39.05, 38.51
Use a significance level to test the claim that the two ponds have the same mean salinity value.
(a) The test statistic is .
(b) The conclusion is
(c) We should
