Research Question:
A well-known sandwich chain puts 9 grams of protein on its sandwiches. A customer complained to the home office
that a particular outlet was putting "hardly any meat" on its sandwiches. A random sample of n = 16 sandwiches from
the sandwich shop in question were weighed. The results showed a M = 7.9 with s = 2.1. Did the shop put significantly
less protein on its sandwiches? Test at a = .05.

Perform the following:

1. Four steps of HyT (show your solution)

2. Cohen's d

Step 1:
H0 = There is the same amount of protein | μ = 9 grams
H1 = There is less amount of protein | μ < 9 grams

Step 2:

α: 0.05 One tailed test

df = 15

tcrit = +
− 1.753

Step 3:

M = 7.9 n = 16 s = 2.1 μ=9

s M −μ
SM = n
tobt = SM

SM = 2.1
16
SM = 2.1
4
SM = 0.53

tobt = 7.9−9
0.525
−1.1
tobt = 0.525
tobt = −2.08

Step 4:
Reject H0 , t(15) = -2.08, p <0.05
M −μ
Cohen’s d = ∣ s ∣

d = ∣ 7.9−9
2.1 ∣
−1.1
d = ∣ 2.1 ∣

 d = 0.523809
d = Moderate Effect

The shop puts significantly less protein in their sandwiches
