Unfortunately, arsenic occurs naturally in some ground water†. A mean arsenic level of μ = 8.0 parts per billion (ppb) is 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 31 tests gave a sample mean of x = 7.1 ppb arsenic, with
s
= 2.3 ppb. Does this information indicate that the mean level of arsenic in this well is less than 8 ppb? Use ? = 0.05.

What is the level of significance?
