Use a significance level of 0.05 to test for a difference between the weights of discarded paper (in pounds) and weights of discarded plastic (in pounds). In this example, Hd is the mean value of the differences d for the population of all pairs of data, where each individual difference d is defined as the weight of discarded paper minus the weight of discarded plastic for a household.
