Researchers are interested in the effect of a certain nutrient on the growth rate of plant seedlings. Using a hydroponics grow procedure that utilized water containing the nutrient, they planted six tomato plants and recorded the heights of each plant 14 days after germination. Those heights, measured in millimeters, were 55.3, 59.4, 60.1, 62.7, 65.4, and 69.2. Complete parts a through d below. a. Using technology, find the 95% confidence interval for the population mean ÎĽ.

In a study of investigating the effectiveness of a new fertilizer to speed up growth in plants, 32 plants were given the new fertilizer. Their average height was 20.00 inches with a variance of 13.00. In addition, 32 other plants in a control group were given the standard fertilizer. Their average height was 11.75 inches with a variance of 11.00. Evaluate whether or not the fertilizer increased growth at the .05 level of significance.
