### Hypothesis Testing for Lead Concentration in Traditional Medicines#### Problem Statement:Listed below are the lead concentrations in µg/g measured in different traditional medicines. Use a 0.01 significance level to test the claim that the mean lead concentration for all such medicines is less than 15 µg/g. Assume that the sample is a simple random sample.Lead Concentrations (µg/g): 9.5, 9, 7, 2.5, 9.5, 13, 13, 13, 22.5, 13#### Hypotheses:Select the correct hypotheses for the test:- \( \mathbf{C}: \) - \( H_0: \mu = 15 \, \text{µg/g} \) - \( H_1: \mu < 15 \, \text{µg/g} \)Or - \( \mathbf{D}: \) - \( H_0: \mu = 15 \, \text{µg/g} \) - \( H_1: \mu \ne 15 \, \text{µg/g} \)#### Steps to Perform the Hypothesis Test:1. **Determine the Test Statistic:** - Use the sample data provided to compute the test statistic. - **(Round to two decimal places as needed.)** 2. **Determine the P-value:** - Calculate the P-value corresponding to the test statistic. - **(Round to three decimal places as needed.)**3. **State the Final Conclusion:** - Based on the P-value and the significance level (α = 0.01), determine whether to reject or fail to reject the null hypothesis \( H_0 \). - Use the format below to state your conclusion: - " \( H_0: \) There is [sufficient/insufficient] evidence to conclude that the mean lead concentration for all such medicines is 15 µg/g."#### Time Limit for Completion:- **Time Remaining: 01:24:16****Note:** This exercise helps in understanding how to formulate and perform a hypothesis test using sample data.#### Copyright:- © 2022 Pearson Education Inc.
