Question 35

Multiple Choice

A manufacturer claims that the mean amount of juice in its 16 ounce bottles is 16.1 16.1 ounces. A consumer advocacy group wants to perform a hypothesis test to determine whether the mean amount is actually less than this. The mean volume of juice for a random sample of 70 bottles was 15.94 15.94 ounces. Do the data provide sufficient evidence to conclude that the mean amount of juice for all 16ounce bottles, μ \mu , is less than 16.1 16.1 ounces? Perform the appropriate hypothesis test using a significance level of 0.10 0.10 . Assume that σ=0.9 \sigma=0.9 ounces.


A) The z z of 1.49 -1.49 provides sufficient evidence to conclude that the mean amount of juice is less than 16.1oz 16.1 \mathrm{oz} .
B) The z z of 1.49 -1.49 does not provide sufficient evidence to conclude that the mean amount of juice is less than 16.1oz 16.1 \mathrm{oz} .

C) The z z of 0.1778 -0.1778 does not provide sufficient evidence to conclude that the mean amount of juice is less than 16.1oz 16.1 \mathrm{oz} .
D) The z z of 0.1778 -0.1778 provides sufficient evidence to conclude that the mean amount of juice is less than 16.1oz 16.1 \mathrm{oz} . 113
