The label on a 200 gram chocolate bar says the chocolate bar has exactly 370 calories. However, it is believed that the company selling the chocolate bar is intentionally misrepresenting the caloric information to be smaller than it actually is. We would like to check whether the calorie information is correct as labelled or if the company is putting a smaller number on the label. Let µ be the average number of calories in a bar. Which option in the picture tests is most sensible test for µ?
