Two different box-filling machines are used to fill cereal boxes on an assembly line. The critical measurement influenced by these machines is the weight of the product in the boxes. Engineers are quite certain that the variance of the weight of product is1 ounce. Experiments are conducted using both machines with sample sizes of 36 each. The sample averages for machines A and B are 4.5 ounces and 4.7 ounces respectively. Engineers are surprised that the two sample averages for...
13 A package-filling device is set to fill cereal boxes with a mean weight of 24 ounces of cereal per box. The standard deviation of the amount actually put into boxes is known to be 0.55 ounces. A random sample of 25 filled boxes is taken, and each is weighted, yielding a mean weight of 24.25 ounces. Test at 0.02 significance level to determine whether the device is working properly.
