Question 42

Essay

Scrubbers A factory recently installed new pollution control equipment ("scrubbers") on its smokestacks in hopes of reducing air pollution levels at a nearby national park. Randomly timed measurements of sulfate levels (in micrograms per cubic meter) were taken before (Set C1) and after (Set C₂) the installation. We believe that measurements of sulfate levels are normally distributed. Write a complete conclusion about the effectiveness of these scrubbers based on the statistical software printout shown below.  SET C1 10.08.08.07.06.09.011.58.09.57.55.010.0 SET C2 5.07.01.09.01.55.02.54.09.06.0\begin{array}{llllllllllllll}\text { SET C1 } & 10.0 & 8.0 & 8.0 & 7.0 & 6.0 & 9.0 & 11.5 & 8.0 & 9.5 & 7.5 & 5.0 & 10.0 \\\text { SET C2 } & 5.0 & 7.0 & 1.0 & 9.0 & 1.5 & 5.0 & 2.5 & 4.0 & 9.0 & 6.0 & & &\end{array}
