You are the supervisor of quality control at the bakery, and you are concerned that new employees are producing loaves that are too light. Suppose you weigh an SRS of bread loaves and find that the mean weight is 0.975 pound. What are the appropriate hypotheses for performing this significance test? Ho : x = 1; H. : x < 1 where i = the sample mean weight (in pounds) of bread loaves produced at the bakery. Ho : u = 1; H. : µ < 1 where u = the true mean weight (in pounds) of bread loaves produced at the bakery. Ho : µ < 1; H, : H = 1 where u = the true mean weight (in pounds) of bread loaves produced at the bakery. Ho : u = 1; H. : p = 0.975 where u= the true mean weight (in pounds) of bread loaves produced at the bakery. Ho : u = 1; H. : u # 1 where u= the true mean weight (in pounds) of bread loaves produced at the bakery.arrow_forward
