Step 1:

(left-tailed test)
𝒙=𝟎.𝟗𝟖𝟕,
𝝈=𝟎.𝟎𝟐𝟓,
Step 2: 𝛼=0.05 𝜶=𝟎 . 𝟎𝟓
Step 3: TS is known we use a Z test-statistic:
𝒙 − 𝝁𝟎 𝟎 .𝟗𝟖𝟕 −𝟏
𝒁 𝟎= ¿ ¿ −𝟑 . 𝟐𝟖𝟗
𝝈 𝟎 . 𝟎𝟐𝟓
√𝒏 √ 𝟒𝟎
Step 4: RR 𝜶=𝟎 . 𝟎𝟓
𝒙 − 𝝁𝟎 𝟓𝟎𝟏 . 𝟖− 𝟓𝟎𝟎
𝒁 𝟎= ¿ ¿ 𝟏 . 𝟐𝟕𝟑

Step 5: Conclusion
Since , we reject at a 5% level of significance. There is
sufficient evidence to conclude that that the mean
weights of the can don’t conform to specifications. (i.e.
we conclude ).
