The number of entrees purchased in a single order at a Noodles & Company restaurant has had a historical average of 2.15 entrees per order. On a particular Saturday afternoon, a random sample of 48 Noodles orders had a mean number of entrees equal to 2.4 with a standard deviation equal to 0.84.

Question

The number of entrees purchased in a single order at a Noodles & Company restaurant has had a historical average of 2.15 entrees per order. On a particular Saturday afternoon, a random sample of 48 Noodles orders had a mean number of entrees equal to 2.4 with a standard deviation equal to 0.84. At the 2 percent level of significance, does this sample show that the average number of entrees per order was greater than expected?
 
(a) Choose the correct null and alternative hypotheses.
 

  1. H0μ ≥ 2.15 vs. H1μ < 2.15
  2. H0μ ≤ 2.15 vs. H1μ > 2.15
  3. H0μ = 2.15 vs. H1μ ≠ 2.15

 

  • a
  • c

 
(b-1) Calculate the t statistic. (Round your answer to 2 decimal places.)
 
tcalc            Not attempted
 
(b-2) Find the p-value. (Round your answer to 4 decimal places.)
 
p-value            Not attempted
 
(c) Choose the correct conclusion.

  • Because the p-value is less than 0.02, we conclude that there is evidence to indicate a significant increase in the average number of entrees per order.
  • Because the p-value is greater than 0.02, we conclude that there is no evidence to indicate a significant increase in the average number of entrees per order.
