A study of bass populations compared the weights of bass in two lakes. Thirty eight randomly selected bass from the first lake had a mean weight of 360 ounces, with a standard deviation of 50 ounces. Thirty-five randomly selected bass from the second lake had a mean weight of 380 ounces with a standard deviation of 45 ounces. At ? = .10, can you support the claim that the weights of bass in the two lakes are the same?     Yes – the claim is the null hypothesis and I failed to reject the null hypothesis. Yes – the claim is the null hypothesis and I failed to reject the null hypothesis. No – the claim is the null hypothesis and I rejected the null hypothesis. No – the claim is the null hypothesis and I rejected the null hypothesis. Yes – the claim is the alternate hypothesis and I rejected the null hypothesis. Yes – the claim is the alternate hypothesis and I rejected the null hypothesis. No – the claim is the alternate hypothesis and I failed to reject the null hypot

Thirty-five randomly selected bass from the second lake had a mean weight of 380 ounces with a standard deviation of 45 ounces. At ? = .10, can you support the claim that the weights of bass in the two lakes are the same?
