Mathematics: The mean potassium content of a popular sports drink is listed as 145 mg in a 32-oz bottle. Analysis of 26 bottles indicates a sample mean of 144.4 mg. (a) State the hypotheses for a two-tailed test of the claimed potassium content. H0: μ = 145 mg vs. H1: μ ≠ 145 mg H0: μ ≤ 145 mg vs. H1: μ 145 mg H0: μ ≥ 145 mg vs. H1: μ 145 mg a b c (b) Assuming a known standard deviation of 2.9 mg, calculate the z test statistic to test the manufacturer’s claim.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that,

Sample size n= 26

Sample mean = 144.4mg

Population standard deviation = 2.9mg

a) Null and alternative hypothesis are

H₀ : μ = 145mg vs H₁ : μ ≠ 145mg

b) Test statistic is

$Z=\frac{\bar x-u}{\sigma/\sqrt{n} } \\\\Z = \frac{144.4-145}{2.9/\sqrt{26} } \\\\=-1.05$

c) the critical values at

$\alpha = 0.10$ are $Z_{\alpha /2}= \pm 1.645$

Since it is two-tailed test

Decision rule: reject H₀

If Z > +1.645 or if Z < -1.645

Here Z = - 1.05 > - 1.645

⇒ we fail to reject H₀

⇒ the sample does not contradict the manufacturers claim

d) P-value = 2* P( Z < -1.05)

= 2 * 0.1469

= 0.2938

⇒ P-value = 0.2938
