Step 1: Calculate the mean, median, and standard deviation for ounces in the bottles.
Answer:
Mean 14.87
Median 14.8
Standard Deveiation 0.55033
For the full calculation, refer to Appendix #1 at the end of the essay.

Step 2: Create a 95% Confidence Interval for the ounces in the bottles.
Answer:
x ̅=14.87 ,s=0.5503 , n=30 , α=0.05
The level of confidence is at 95%.
Use the following formula to determine the confidence interval:
(x ̅-t_(α/2) (s/√n),x ̅+t_(α/2) (s/√n)) t_(α/2)=t_0.025=2.045 Substitute the values into the formula:
(14.87-2.045(0.5503/√30),14.872.045(0.5503/√30))
= (14.665,15.075)
The calculation above clearly states that the confidence interval at 95% confidence is approximately 14.665 - 15.075 ounces.

Step 3: Crete a hypothesis to test the claim that a bottle contains less than sixteen ounce is correct. Be sure to clearly state the logic of the …show more content…

Therefore, the null hypothesis H0: µ ≥ 16 ounces is rejected, leading to the mean being less than sixteen ounces.
Step 4: The following is discussion based on the conclusion of the test: If it is concluded that there are less than sixteen ounces in a bottle of soda, create a hypothesis on three possible causes. Followed by the suggestions of the strategies to avoid the deficit in the future.
Answer: When analyzing the test, one can conclude that the complaint about the bottles not containing sixteen ounces tends to be correct.
