Answer

$\bar{x}$ =$\frac{∑X}{n}$ =$\frac{1527}{10}$ = 152.7 s^2 = $\frac{ n(∑X^2) - [(∑X)^2] }{n(n-1)}$ = $\frac{2336630- 2331729}{10*9}$ =54.4556 s = $ \sqrt 54.4556 \ $ s =7.3794 a $\bar{x}$ =152.7 calories μ=150 calories,σ=7.3794 calories$σ_\bar{s}$ =$ \frac{7.3794}{$10}$=2.334, n = 10 α = 0.025, df = 10-1=9, critical value=2.262 t=$ \frac{\bar{x}-μ }{σ_\bar{s}}$ = $ \frac{152.7-150 }{2.334}$ =-1.16 Rejection region =z > -2.262 Non rejection region = z <= -2.262 The value z = -1.16 falls within the rejection region, hence we reject the null hypothesis and conclude that 8-ounce low fat-yogurt cups contain on average , more than 150 calories per cup.
