Tahir is a shift manager at a local fast food place and is responsible for quality management. Tahir wants to ensure that all the frozen hamburger patties that get delivered by the supplier weigh three ounces on average. Tahir tells one of his employees that as a shipment arrives, select 21 patties at random and find the average weight for the 25 patties. The average weight is 2 ounces and the standard deviation is 0.1 ounces, test the claim that the average is different from the stated by using a=0.03 through the traditional approach.

Expert Solution
Step 1

Given:

Population size = 25

Number of samples, n= 21

Level of significance, α=0.03

Sample mean, x=2

Sample standard deviation, σ=0.01

Population mean, μ=3

Degrees of freedom will be:

d.f = n - 1 = 21 - 1 = 20
