(1 point) Samples were collected from two ponds in the Bahamas to compare salinity values (in parts per thousand). Several samples were drawn at each site.
Pond 1: 37.02, 36.72, 37.36, 37.71, 37.01, 37.45, 37.54
Pond 2: 39.21, 38.51, 38.66, 38.24, 40.08
Use a 0.05 significance level to test the claim that the two ponds
have the same mean salinity value.
