DDT is an insecticide that accumulates up the food chain. Predator birds can be contaminated
with quite high levels of the chemical by eating many lightly contaminated prey. It is believed that
this causes eggshells to be thinner and weaker than normal and makes the eggs more prone to breakage. A studywas conducted of eggs laid by contaminated birds. A “normal” eggshell has a mean thickness of 0.2 mm, but the researchers wanted to investigate the claim that the eggshells were thinner than normal. What would be an appropriate null and alternative hypothesis?Decreasing the confidence level, while holding the sample size the same, will do what to the
length of your confidence interval?
