The symbol $\mu$ represents the theoretical average of a population. Therefore, option B ($\mu 1$) is the correct choice. Option A ($H _ { 1 }$) represents the alternative hypothesis, which typically states that the population mean is different from a specified value. Option C ($\bar { X } 1$) represents the sample mean, not the population mean. Option D ($H _ { 0 }$) represents the null hypothesis, which typically states that the population mean is equal to a specified value.
