A manufacturer of chocolate chips would like to know whether its bag filling machine works correctly at the 400 gram setting. It is believed that the machine is underfilling the bags. A 9 bag sample had a mean of 397 grams with a standard deviation of 25. A level of significance of 0.025 will be used. Assume the population distribution is approximately normal. Determine the decision rule for rejecting the null hypothesis. Round your answer to three decimal places.

Reject if

Step-by-step explanation:

The decision rule for rejecting the null hypothesis is shown below:-

The machine is thought to be underfilling so that the test is left tailed.

Now the Degrees of freedom is

= 9 - 1

= 8

Critical left tailed value t for meaning level and 0.025 = -2.306

Therefore Decision rule will be in the following way:

Reject if

3.4 pizzas

step-by-step explanation:

given is a scatter plot showing number of pizzas sold during weeks for different issues of coupon

y represents number of pizzas sold and x number of coupons issued

y is marked verticaly and x horizontally

the trend line is given as

y =3.4x+43

this says that even when no coupon is issued pizzas sold will be 43

and rate of change of pizza sold for 1 unit of coupon = slope = 3.4

i.e. when x increases by 1 unit y increases by 3.4 units

hence for each additional coupon issued 3.4 pizzas more will be sold
