A company claims that the weight per banana it ships is 150 grams with
a standard deviation of 18 grams. Data generated of 49 banana’s
randomly selected from a shipment indicated a mean weight of 153.5
grams per banana. Is the sufficient evidence company’s claim. Test at
a=0.05

A special cable has a breaking strength of 800 pounds. A researcher selects a
sample of 20 cables and finds that the average breaking strength is 793 pounds
with a standard deviation of 12 pounds. Assume that the variable is normally
distributed, test the claim at a= 0.01
22. State the Hypothesis
A. H₀:µ = 800 pounds C. H₀:µ= 800 pounds
Hₐ: µ< 800 pounds Hₐ:µ ≠ 800 pounds
B. H₀: µ = 800 pounds D. H₀:µ = 800 pounds
Hₐ: µ > 800 pounds Hₐ:µ = 800 pounds
