Question

Consider the following:

In general, when people diet they typically lose 10 lbs. (?σ = 2).

A random sample of 16 people on the keto diet lost 15 lbs.

Do people on the keto diet lose more or less weight than people on diets in general?

3. What is the Null Hypothesis?

a)On average, weight loss in the keto diet sample does not differ from weight loss in the population of dieters in general. (H0: X-bar = Mu))

b)On average, weight loss in the keto diet sample does not differ from weight loss in the population of dieters in general. (H0: X-bar does not equal Mu)
 
c)On average, weight loss in the keto diet sample differs from weight loss in the population of dieters in general. (H0: X-bar does not equal Mu)
 
d)On average, weight loss in the keto diet sample differs from weight loss in the population of dieters in general. (H0: X-bar = Mu)
