Question

A process that produces bottles of the essence, when operating correctly, produces bottles whose contents weigh, on average, 50 g. A random sample of 25 bottles from a single production run yielded a mean weight of 51.5 g and a standard deviation of 5.5 g. Assuming that the population distribution is normal, test at the 5% level, whether the process is operating correctly.

Which of the following statements about the above hypothesis testing is/are true?


Select one or more:

The appropriate null and alternative hypotheses for the test are H0: μ = 51.5 ; H1: μ  ≠ 51.5

The appropriate sampling distribution for the test is a t-distribution with 25 degrees of freedom

The test statistic for the test is 1.36

There is no enough evidence to reject H0 at 5% level of significance

The process is operating correctly
