Dissolved Oxygen Content The observationsin the table are dissolved oxygen contents in water.The higher the dissolved oxygen content, the greaterthe ability of a river, lake, or stream to support aquaticlife. In this experiment, a pollution-control inspectorsuspected that a river community was releasingsemitreated sewage into a river. To check this theory,five randomly selected specimens of river water wereselected at a location above the town and another fivebelow. These are the dissolved oxygen readings (inparts per million):Above Town 4.8 5.2 5.0 4.9 5.1Below Town 5.0 4.7 4.9 4.8 4.9a. Use a one-tailed Wilcoxon rank sum test witha .05 to confirm or refute the theory.b. Use a Students t-test (with a .05) to analyzethe data. Compare the conclusion reached inpart a.
