New Orleans' Coca Cola bottling center wants to determine whether the mean amount of product in a 12 oz can of Coke is actually 12 ounces. Thus, the null and alternative hypotheses are
Ho: mu is equal to 12 ounces Ha: mu is not equal to 12 ouncesYou want to be extra sure that you aren't underfilling (which would open you up to a lawsuit). Being risk averse, you set out to conduct a hypothesis test at a stringent 99% level. Fill rates are distributed Normally. You take a sample of 50 different Coke cans and carefully measure the amount of product. From this sample, you calculate an avg fill of 12.3 ounces, with a standard deviation of 0.75 ounces.
Do you reject or not-reject the null hypothesis?
