A manufacture makes light-weight sneakers, and claim that the average weight of one sneaker is no bigger than 2 pounds. To verify this claim, a sample of 9 sneakers are weighed, and the sample mean is 2.4 pounds with the sample variance of 0.25 pounds^2. Assuming the weights of sneakers are normally distributed, we would like to test the claim of the manufacture at 10% level of significance.  Please select the correct statement from below:

Question 19

A manufacture makes light-weight sneakers, and claim that the average weight of one sneaker is no bigger than 2 pounds. To verify this claim, a sample of 9 sneakers are weighed, and the sample mean is 2.4 pounds with the sample variance of 0.25 pounds^2. Assuming the weights of sneakers are normally distributed, we would like to test the claim of the manufacture at 10% level of significance. 

Please select the correct statement from below:

 

O None of the other answers
O The alternative hypothesis H1 is u > 2 pounds. Since p-value < 0.10, HO is rejected and the manufacture's claim is false.
O The null hypothesis H0 is p > 2 pounds. Since p-value < 0.10, HO is rejected and the manufacture's claim is true.
O The null hypothesis H0 is ps 2 pounds. Since p-value > 0.10, H0 is accepted and the manufacture's claim is true.
O The null hypothesis H0 is p > 2 pounds. Since p-value > 0.10, HO is accepted and the manufacture's claim is true.
