ounces. Charlie would like to conduct a hypothesis test to see if playing music for his chickens increases the weight of the eggs that they produce. What is the null hypothesis? What is the alternate hypothesis? Is this a left tail, right tail, or two tailed test? What is the value of the test statistic? What is the critical t value? What is your conclusion for the hypothesis test at a 5% level of significance?
At Charlie’s Chicken Chappal, Charlie raises chickens and sells the eggs. Since Charlie has run the Chicken Chappal, the average weight of an egg laid by one of his chickens has been 2.05 ounces. His friend, Ernie Egg Eater, suggested that the chickens might lay bigger eggs if Charlie played music for them. A sample of 25 eggs from the chickens that had music, had an average weight of = 2.14 ounces with a sample standard deviation of s = 0.2 ounces. Charlie would like to conduct a hypothesis test to see if playing music for his chickens increases the weight of the eggs that they produce.
