Pecan Peanuts makes packets of nuts in its factory in the UK and currently uses two machines to fill the packets. A sample of 30 packets from the first machine has a mean weight of 180 g and a standard deviation of 40 g. A sample of 40 packets from the second machine has a mean weight of 170 g and a standard deviation of 10 g.

State the six-point procedure for hypothesis testing and test if the two machines are comparable in terms of putting the same amount in packets?

Insert six-point procedure, calculation and summarise result approx. 300 words - use cell for calculation( excel formulas to get the results).

A factory that produces screws sells its products in packets of 100. A packet is considered defect if more than 10 screws (out of the 100) are defect. To test whether a packet is defective, 5 screws are picked at random and checked. If at most two of the five are defect, we say that the packet is not defective. Take Ho: the number of defect screws in a given packet is 10 and Ha : the number of defect...
