question 145

Short Answer

How many tissues should the Kimberly Clark Corporation package of Kleenex contain?Researchers determined that 60 tissues is the mean number of tissues used during a cold.Suppose a random sample of 100 Kleenex users yielded the following data on the number of tissues used during a cold: $\bar { X } = 52$ , S = 22.Suppose the test statistic does fall in the rejection region at $\alpha$ = 0.05.Which of the following conclusion is correct? a) At $\alpha = 0.05$ , there is not sufficient evidence to conclude that the mean number of tissues used during a cold is 60 tissues.
b) At $\alpha = 0.05$ , there is sufficient evidence to conclude that the mean number of tissues used during a cold is 60 tissues.
c) At $\alpha = 0.05$ , there is insufficient evidence to conclude that the mean number of tissues used during a cold is not 60 tissues.
d) At $\alpha = 0.10$ , there is sufficient evidence to conclude that the mean number of tissues used during a cold is not 60 tissues.
