Completed 7 out of 12 | Resources Submit All Press esc to exit full screen Question 3 of 12 > An analyst at a state's environmental quality commission has just finished processing salt concentration tests on 60 wells in Washington County to represent the more than 1,000 wells across the state. Water with salinity concentration less than 0.05% is considered fresh. The analyst decides to run a one-sample t test at a significance level of a = 0.03 on this sample of wells to determine if the overall salt concentration of the state's water supply exceeds 0.05%. The shape of the sample data is approximately symmetric with no outliers, and its statistics are x = 0.048% Sz = 0.0366% P-value = 0.0166 where x is the sample mean, s, is the sample standard deviation, and the P-value is the probability that results from the 1 test. The analyst decides that there is enough evidence to conclude that the mean water salinity level exceeds 0.05%. Is this decision valid? To answer this question, complete the following sentence. The conclusion is invalid - because all of the conditions for inference have been met the Normal/Large Counts condition is not met the Random condition is not met
