A manufacturer claims that the mean weight of flour in its 1 kg bags is 1.025 kg.A t-test is performed to determine whether the mean weight is actually less than this.The hypotheses are 
The mean weight for a sample of 45 bags of flour was 1.011 kg.Suppose that the P-value corresponding to this sample data is 0.001.What does the P-value tell you?
A) We should fail to reject the null.The bags contain an average of 1.025 kg.
B) If the null hypothesis were false,the probability of observing a sample mean of 1.011 kg would be 0.001.
C) If the mean weight of the bags were really 1.025 kg,the probability of getting a sample mean of 1.011 kg or below would be 0.001.
D) If the null hypothesis were true,the probability of having a sample mean of 1.011 kg or above is 0.001.
E) Not enough information is given.
