The manufacturer of a popular soft drink claims that cans of this drink contain 12 ounces. A consumer group is suspicious of this claim and believes the amount in each can is less than 12 ounces. A random sample of 18 cans is selected and the amount in each can is measured. The results are as follows: 11.9 11.9 12.0 11.9 12.0 11.7 11.6 11.5 11.6 12.0 11.8 11.7 12.2 11.5 12.1 11.8 12.1 11.8 1.
