BIG has good reason to believe that the mean amount of coffee dispensed by the machine, u, is greater than 7.2 ounces, and plans to do a statistical test of the claim that the machine is working as designed. Technicians gather a random sample of fill amounts and find that the mean of the sample is 7.6 ounces and that the standard deviation is 0.5 ounces.

He knows that the mean attention span for students with ADD who are not taking the drug is 2.3 minutes long. His sample of 12 students taking the drug yielded a mean of 4.6 minutes. Justin can find no information regarding σx , so he calculated s2x =1.96. a. Identify the independent and dependent variables. b. In a sentence, state the null hypothesis being tested. c. Using symbols, state the null and alternative hypotheses. d. Determine the critical region using a one-tailed test with alpha = .05. e .Conduct the hypothesis test (Do the math and compare the t-critical and t-obtained values). f.
