A company that packages salted and unsalted mixed nuts received a complaint that claimed that the company’s salted packages cont

ain more whole cashews than their unsalted packages do. The quality control department investigated the claim by randomly selecting a sample of 45 of each type of package, counting the number of cashews in each package, and finding the mean and standard deviation for both types of packages. Which of the following are the correct null and alternative hypotheses to test the complaint’s claim, where μS is the mean number of cashews per package of salted nuts and μU is the mean number of cashews per package of unsalted nuts?
A. H0 : mu1 - mu2 = 0; Ha : mu1 - mu2 = 0.
B. H0 : mu1 - mu2 = 0; Ha : mu1 - mu2 > 0.
C. H0 : mu1 - mu2 < 0; Ha : mu1 - mu2 > 0.
D. H0 : mu1 - mu2 = 0; Ha : mu1 - mu2 < 0.
E. H0 : mu1 - mu2 > 0; Ha : mu1 - mu2 = 0.

Answer:

H_0 : \mu_1 - \mu_2 = 0

H_a : \mu_1 - \mu_2 \ne 0

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the salted package be represented with 1 and the unsalted, 2.

So:

\mu_1: Mean of salted package

\mu_2: Mean of unsalted package

Considering the given options, the null hypothesis is that which contains =.

So, the null hypothesis is:

H_0 : \mu_1 - \mu_2 = 0

The opposite of = is \ne. So, the alternate hypothesis, is that which contains \ne

So, the alternate hypothesis is:

H_a : \mu_1 - \mu_2 \ne 0
