Question

The research around Leona’s Tacos has created quite a buzz and business is great. Leona is planning on expanding her menu and she’s going to start with a new taco filling. She is considering her own black bean mix “Savor” and Hadey’s famous braise of seitan “Praise”. She naturally performs a blind taste test with randomly selected judges from Avocado Park. Each judge is served a taco filled with either “Savor” or “Praise” and asked to assess the experience using a rubric that results in a score from 0-100. The results can be found in the Excel file “Savor v Praise.xlsx” on MyLab.

1. Identify the populations of interest.

2. Identify the variable of interest.

3. What type of variable is being studied here?

4. What would be a suitable parameter for determining if the taco

   filling receive different scores?

5. Write a null hypothesis for Leona’s study.

6. Write an alternative hypothesis for Leona’s study.

7. Explain what a Type II Error would look like in this context.

8. What conditions will need to be met in order for Leona to

   calculate a P-Value?

9. Are any assumptions necessary to meet the conditions in question

   7?

10. Calculate the P-Value for the hypotheses you wrote in

questions 5 and 6.
11.What should Leona’s decision be?
12. Write a detailed summary of Leona’s conclusions.
