A machine that fills cereal boxes is supposed to be calibrated so that the mean fill weight is 12 oz. Let μ denote the true mean fill weight. Assume that in a test of the hypotheses H0 : μ = 12 versus H1 : μ ≠ 12, the P-value is 0.33. Should H0 be rejected on the basis of this test? Explain. Check all that are true.

Answer:

H0 cannot be rejected based on this test

Step-by-step explanation:

the rule in statistical hypothesis testing is for the null hypothesis to be rejected whenever the p value is calculated and found to be ≤ the level of significance.

if p-value ≤ 0.05.

we reject h0

but in this question the p value is = 0.33

this p value is high so we cannot reject the null hypothesis

0.33 is greater than 0.05

so the decision is to fail to reject the null hypothesis.
