(Round all intermediate calculations to at least 4 decimal places.)

A machine that is programmed to package 1.20 pounds of cereal in each cereal box is being tested for its accuracy. In a sample of 36 cereal boxes, the mean and standard deviation are calculated as 1.22 pounds and 0.06 pound, respectively. Use Table 2.

a.Select the null and the alternative hypotheses to determine if the machine is working improperly, that is, it is either underfilling or overfilling the cereal boxes.

a.)   H0: µ ≥ 1.20; HA: µ < 1.20

b.) H0: µ ≤ 1.20; HA: µ > 1.20

 c.) H0: µ = 1.20; HA: µ ≠ 1.20

b.Calculate the value of the test statistic. (Round your answer to 2 decimal places.)

  Test statistic ___________

c-1.Approximate the p-value. 

a.)  p-value < 0.01

b.) 0.01 ≤ p-value < 0.025

c.) 0.025 ≤ p-value < 0.05

d) 0.05 ≤ p-value < 0.10

e.) p-value ≥ 0.10

c-2.What is the conclusion at a 5% level of significance?   

a.) Reject H0 since the p-value is greater than α.

b.) Reject H0 since the p-value is smaller than α.

c.) Do not reject H0 since the p-value is greater than α.

d.) Do not reject H0 since the p-value is smaller than α.

d-1.Calculate the critical value(s) at a 5% level of significance. (Round your answer to 3 decimal places.)

  Critical value(s) ±  _______

d-2.Can you conclude that the machine is working improperly?   Yes or No ?
