Question
A researcher wanted to determine if carpeted or
uncarpeted rooms contain more bacteria. The
table shows the results for the number of bacteria
per cubic foot for both types of rooms. A normal
probability plot and boxplot indicate that the data
are approximately normally distributed with no
outliers. Do carpeted rooms have more bacteria
than uncarpeted rooms at the x = 0.05 level
of significance?
