Assume that the weights of filled bags are approximately normally distributed. A random sample of 10 bags yields the following data (in oz): 15.87 16.02 15.78 15.83 15.69 15.81 16.04 15.81 15.92 16.10 On the basis of these data, can you conclude that the mean fill weight is actually less than 16 oz?

Perform an experiment by placing a container under a leaky faucet and actually measure the amount of water accumulated in an hour (you can simulate a leaky faucet by just partially closing the faucet). You are to design the experiment. Think about the parameters that you need to measure. Express and project your findings in gallons/day, gallons/week, gallons/month, and gallons/year. At this rate, how much water is wasted by 10,000,000 households with leaky faucets. Write a brief report to discuss your findings.arrow_forward
