The brand-name ointment is known to deliver a mean of 3.5 micrograms of active ingredient to each square cm of skin. As part of the testing, seven subjects apply the ointment. Six hours later, the amount of drug that has been absorbed into the skin is measured. The amounts, in micrograms, are 2.6 3.2 2.1 3.0 3.1 2.9 3.7 How strong is the evidence that the mean amount absorbed differs from 3.5 micrograms? Use the 0.05 level of significance.
