A researcher performs a hypothesis test to test the claim that for a particular manufacturer, the mean weight of cereal in its 18 ounce boxes is less than 18 ounces. He uses the following hypotheses: H 0: μ = 18 vs H A: μ < 18 and finds a P-value of 0.01. Draw a conclusion about the cereal box weight at a significance level of 0.05.

We conclude that the mean weight of cereal in its 18-ounce boxes is less than 18 ounces.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that a researcher performs a hypothesis test to test the claim that for a particular manufacturer, the mean weight of cereal in its 18-ounce boxes is less than 18 ounces.

Let = mean weight of cereal in its 18-ounce boxes.

So, Null Hypothesis, : = 18       {mean that the mean weight of cereal in its 18-ounce boxes is equal to 18 ounces}

Alternate Hypothesis, : < 18      {mean that the mean weight of cereal in its 18-ounce boxes is less than 18 ounces}

Also, it is given that the P-value is 0.01 and the level of significance is 0.05.

The decision rule based on the P-value is given by;

Here, clearly our P-value is less than the level of significance as 0.01 < 0.05, so we have sufficient evidence to reject our null hypothesis as our test statistics will fall in the rejection region.

Therefore, we conclude that the mean weight of cereal in its 18-ounce boxes is less than 18 ounces.

the answer would be d

straight away you can eliminate a and c because not all books contain a scientific skill because some may be fiction. c is also wrong because it saids that the only way children can learn is through books which is incorrect.

b is also wrong because reading can be a scientific skill but not always, therefore it is wrong which leaves you with d, the correct answer since it said that it can children learn.

hope this ! : 3
