A reading of 7.0 is neutral; values in excess of 7.0 indicate alkalinity; those below 7.0 imply acidity. In one study, it is mentioned that the best chance of catching bass occurs when the pH of the water is in the range 7.5 to 7.9. Suppose your suspect that acid rain is lowering the pH of your favourite fishing spot and you wish to determine whether the pH is less than 7.5. You obtained 10 samples and got the following data: 7.3, 7.4, 7.2, 7.0, 7.5,7.4,7.3,7.3,7.2 and 7.1. Use 0.05 alpha. a. State the alternative and null hypothesis. b.
