Now, let’s assume that the package claims that it contains 1.7 oz. of mustard seed. Some of the customers claim that there isn’t enough mustard seed in the 1.7 oz. economy size; corporate management is worried that there may be too much. Given the sample of 36, assuming that it is adequate, test the hypothesis that the average amount of mustard seed in the package meets the 1.7 oz. standard with, say, 95% confidence. Be sure to state the null and alternative hypothesis and which you support. Include your Excel output. For extra assistance, reference section 9.3 and page 353 > USING THE COMPUTER > Excel > “To perform a T test of a single mean”, etc. Is there anything you would want to note for management?
