Lex be a random variable that represents the pH of arterial plasma (le, acidity of the blood). For healthy adults, the mean of the distribution is - 7.4.1 A new drug for arthritis has
been developed. However, it is thought that this drug may change blood pH. A random sample of 31 patients with arthritis took the drug for 3 months. Blood tests showed that x = 8.6 with
sample standard deviations - 2.7. Use a 5% level of significance to test the claim that the drug has changed (either way) the mean pH level of the blood.
USE SALT
