I hope this is not what u r asking 4 (cuz itīs pretty basic): Upper tail test: Ho: mean <= 32 H1: mean > 32 (this is if the company wants to reject the theory that the machine is filling 32 or less ounce bags) Lower tail test: Ho: mean >= 32 H1: mean < 32 (this is if the company wants to reject the theory that the machine is filling more than 32) the one u choose depends on what u expect to do. If you want to be sure the machine is filling 32 or more, use the upper tail test and see if u can reject Ho. Else, make the other one. U would need to define: an alpha error (the probability of rejecting Ho when Ho is correct), and amount of observations in the sample (in order to see which distribution you should use). In any case, if ur interest is to know whether the company is producing the exact amount, or not (less amount, or more amount) u should use the test "against different". |
