The manufacturer of Pepsi claims that its 2-liter bottles contain, on average, no more than 250 calories. A sample of 20 2-liter bottles, which were checked for calories, containsa mean of 255 calories with a standard deviation of 5.6 calories. Assume that the calorie count has a normaldistribution. Does the sample information indicate that a 2-liter bottle of Pepsi contains more than 250 calories

Answer:

Yes, Sample information does indicate that a 2-liter bottle of Pepsi contains more than 250 calories  

Step-by-step explanation:  

Null Hypothesis [H0] : u < 250  

Alternate Hypothesis [H1] : u > 250 {One Tail}  

t = (x' - u) / [ sd / √n ]  

= (255 - 250) / (5.6 / √20)  

5 / (5.6 /√20)  

= 3.99  

As t ie 3.99 > t value 1.65 ie for one tail 95% confidence level. So, we reject the null hypothesis & conclude that it contains more than 250 calories.
