- Bacteria are randomly distributed in a river at a rate of 5 per litre of water. A new factory opens and a scientist claims it is polluting the river with bacteria.

Stating your hypotheses clearly test, at the \(5 \%\) level of significance, whether there is evidence that the level of pollution has increased.
