New Orleans' Coca Cola bottling center wants to determine whether the mean amount of product in a 12 oz can of Coke is actually 12 ounces. Thus, the null and alternative hypotheses are       Ho: mu is equal to 12 ounces      Ha: mu is not equal to 12 ounces You want to be extra sure that you aren't underfilling (which would open you up to a lawsuit). Being risk averse, you set out to conduct a hypothesis test at a stringent 99% level. Fill rates are distributed Normally. You take a sample of 50 different Coke cans and carefully measure the amount of product. From this sample, you calculate an avg fill of 12.3 ounces, with a standard deviation of 0.75 ounces.  Do you reject or not-reject the null hypothesis? Group of answer choices Do not reject the null hypothesis.  Reject the null hypothesis.

New Orleans' Coca Cola bottling center wants to determine whether the mean amount of product in a 12 oz can of Coke is actually 12 ounces. Thus, the null and alternative hypotheses are 

     Ho: mu is equal to 12 ounces
     Ha: mu is not equal to 12 ounces
You want to be extra sure that you aren't underfilling (which would open you up to a lawsuit). Being risk averse, you set out to conduct a hypothesis test at a stringent 99% level. Fill rates are distributed Normally. You take a sample of 50 different Coke cans and carefully measure the amount of product. From this sample, you calculate an avg fill of 12.3 ounces, with a standard deviation of 0.75 ounces.
