The mean tar content of a simple random sample of 35 unfiltered cigarettes is 21.1 mg, with a standard deviation of 3.2 mg. the mean tar content of a simple random sample of 30 filtered cigarettes is 13.2 mg with a standard deviation of 3.7 mg. at a significance level of 0.01, do the results suggest that, on average, filtered cigarettes have less tar than unfiltered cigarettes?

There is significant evidence at 0.01 significance level that filtered cigarettes have less tar than unfiltered cigarettes

Step-by-step explanation:

Let M(f) be the true mean tar content of unfiltered cigarettes

And M(u) be the true mean tar content of filtered cigarettes

Then

: M(f) = M(u)

: M(f) < M(u)

test statistic can be calculated using the formula:

where

Then

≈9.13

p-value of the statistic ≈0 <0.01 (significance level) Thus we can reject the null hypothesis.

step-by-step explanation:

if it takes 8 pounds to make 12 divide 12 by 8 and you get 1.5, 1.5 x 16 = 24
