35. Sodium Chloride Measurements of water intake, obtained from a sample of 17 rats that had been injected with a sodium chloride solution, produced a mean and standard deviation of 31.0 and 6.2 cubic centimeters

a. Do the data indicate that injected rats drink more water than noninjected rats? Test at the 5% level of significance.
