Question 133

Multiple Choice

Express the null hypothesis and the alternative hypothesis in symbolic form. Use the correct symbol (μ,p,σ) ( \mu , p , \sigma ) for the indicated parameter.
-A researcher claims that the amounts of acetaminophen in a certain brand of cold tablets have a standard deviation different from the σ=3.3mg\sigma = 3.3 \mathrm { mg } claimed by the manufacturer.


A)
H0:σ3.3mgH1:σ>3.3mg\begin{array}{l}\mathrm{H}_{0}: \sigma \leq 3.3 \mathrm{mg} \\\mathrm{H}_{1}: \sigma>3.3 \mathrm{mg}\end{array}

B)
H0:σ3.3mgH1:σ<3.3mg\begin{array}{l}\mathrm{H}_{0}: \sigma \geq 3.3 \mathrm{mg} \\\mathrm{H}_{1}: \sigma<3.3 \mathrm{mg}\end{array}

C)
H0:σ3.3mgH1:σ=3.3mg\begin{array}{l}\mathrm{H}_{0}: \sigma \neq 3.3 \mathrm{mg} \\\mathrm{H}_{1}: \sigma=3.3 \mathrm{mg}\end{array}

D)
