Answer:

The pvalue of the test is 0.177 > 0.02, which means that at α=0.02, you cannot reject the company's claim.

Step-by-step explanation:

A company that makes cola drinks states that the mean caffeine content per 12-ounce bottle of cola is 35 milligrams. You want to test this claim.

At the null hypothesis, you test that the mean caffeine content is of 35 milligrams, that is:

$H_o: \mu = 35$

And at the alternate hypothesis, you test if the content is different from 35, so:

$H_a: \mu \neq 35$

The test statistic is:

$z = \frac{X - \mu}{\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}}$

In which X is the sample mean, $\mu$ is the value tested at the null hypothesis, $\sigma$ is the standard deviation and n is the size of the sample.

35 is tested at the null hypothesis:

This means that $\mu = 35$

During your tests, you find that a random sample of thirty 12-ounce bottles of cola has a mean caffeine content of 36.8 milligrams. Assume the population is normally distributed and the population standard deviation is 7.3 milligrams.

This means that $n = 30, X = 36.8, \sigma = 7.3$

Value of the test statistic:

$z = \frac{X - \mu}{\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}}$

$z = \frac{36.8 - 35}{\frac{7.3}{\sqrt{30}}}$

$z = 1.35$

Pvalue of the test and decision:

The pvalue of the test is the probability of the mean caffeine content differing from the mean by at least 36.8 - 35 = 1.8, which is P(|z| > 1.35), which is 2 multiplied by the pvalue of z = -1.35.

Looking at the z = -1.35 has a pvalue of 0.0885

2*0.0885 = 0.177

The pvalue of the test is 0.177 > 0.02, which means that at α=0.02, you cannot reject the company's claim.
