Soft Drink Consumption A researcher claims that the average yearly consumption of soft drinks per person is 52 gallons. In a sample of 48 randomly selected people, the mean of the yearly consumption was 52.4 gallons. The standard deviation of the population is 3.5 gallons. On the basis of the P-value, is the researcher's claim valid at a = 0.10? compute the test value - z test find the p value make a decision
