A manufacturer of potato chips would like to know whether its bag filling machine works correctly at the 445445 gram setting. Is there sufficient evidence at the 0.050.05 level that the bags are overfilled? Assume the population is normally distributed. State the null and alternative hypotheses for the above scenario.

Yes there is sufficient evidence.

Null hypothesis; H_o ; μ = 445

Alternative hypothesis; H_o ; μ ≠ 445

Step-by-step explanation:

The null hypothesis states that there is no difference in the test which is denoted by H_o. However, the sign of null hypothesis is denoted by the signs of = or ≥ or ≤.

Meanwhile, the alternative hypothesis is one that defers from the null hypothesis. This therefore implies a significant difference in the test. Thus, the signs of alternative hypothesis is denoted by; < or > or ≠.

Now, the question we have is a two tailed test. Thus;

The null hypothesis is;

bag filling machine works correctly at the 445 gram setting which is;

H_o ; μ = 445

The alternative hypothesis is;

bag filling machine works incorrectly at the 445 gram setting which is;

H_o ; μ ≠ 445

answer: 2 and 1
