Amanufacturer of potato chips would like to know whether its bag filling machine works correctly at the 433 gram setting. It is believed that the machine is underfilling the bags. A 26 bag sample had a mean of 427 grams with a variance of 324. A level of significance of 0.05 will be used. Assume the population distribution is approximately normal. Is there sufficient evidence to support the claim that the bags are underfilled?

There is not enough evidence to support the claim that the bags are under filled.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given :

Population mean, μ = 433

Sample size, n = 26

xbar = 427

Variance, s² = 324 ; Standard deviation, s = √324 = 18

The hypothesis :

H0 : μ = 433

H0 : μ < 433

The test statistic :

(xbar - μ) ÷ (s/√(n))

(427 - 433) / (18 / √26)

-6 / 3.5300904

T = -1.70

The Pvalue :

df = 26-1 = 25 ; α = 0.05

Pvalue = 0.0508

Since Pvalue > α ; WE fail to reject the Null and conclude that there is not enough evidence to support the claim that the bags are underfilled

with btw u said 100pts but it clearly says

i answerd and just got 10pts

no hate
