A new petrol additive is under investigation. Eight cars are tested with 50 litres of petrol without the additive, and then re- tested with 50 litres of petrol with the additive included. The distances travelled (in kilometres) by each car are given in the table below. It is assumed that distance travelled is approximately normally distributed. 1 3 5 6. 7 8 Distance travelled without 505 524 677 582 656 559 635 595 additive Distance travelled with 530 516 695 547 704 571 623 625 additive In testing the hypothesis that the additive increases the distance travelled at the 5% level of significance, which one of the following statements is false?

18.8 NuttyKorn is a snack consisting of caramel popcorn and peanuts. They advertise that the weight of peanuts (in ounces) in a 26-ounce box of snack follows a normal distribution with mean 5 and standard deviation .2. A consumer group has grave fears that NuttyKorn is skimping on the peanuts. They want to test Họ : µ = 5 versus Ha : µ < 5, where µ is the true average weight of peanuts in a 26-ounce box of snack. (Assume that the standard deviation is known to be 0.2.) They will randomly select four boxes and reject Ho if at least three of the boxes have less than 4.8 ounces of peanuts. (a) What is the test size for this decision rule? (Use the 68-95-99.7 rule.) (b) Suppose that the true average weight of peanuts is only µ = 4.6 ounces (and the standard deviation is again .2). What is the power of the test?
