Nutrition labels. The nutrition label on a bag of potato chips says that a serving of potato chips has 130 calories. A random sample of 37 bags yielded a sample mean of 134 calories with a standard deviation of 17 calories. Test the claim at a 5% level of significance that the nutrition label on a bag of potato chips is correct.

Nutrition labels. The nutrition label on a bag of potato chips says that a serving of potato chips has 130
calories. A random sample of 37 bags yielded a sample mean of 134 calories with a standard deviation of 17
calories. Test the claim at a 5% level of significance that the nutrition label on a bag of potato chips is
correct.
(a) Write the hypotheses for the test:
O Ho: H = 130
H3: μ - 134
O H.: 0 = 17
Hạ: o < 17
Ο H: μ- 130
Hạ: p > 134
Ο H,: μ-
= 130
Hạ: P
* 130
(b) Compute the p-value for the test:
p =
(round to three sig figs)
(c) What is the final conclusion?
O There is sufficient evidence to support the claim that the true average calorie content is 130
calories.
O There is not sufficient evidence to support the claim that the true average calorie content is 130
calories.
O There is sufficient evidence to reject the claim that the true average calorie content is 130 calories.
O There is not sufficient evidence to reject the claim that the true average calorie content is 130
calories.
