A sample of 200 sodas filled on a new machine showed that 22 were
over-filled. The factory will get rid of the new machine if the data
indicates that the proportion of over-filled sodas is significantly more
than 7%. At a significance level of 10% does the factory get rid of
the machine or not?
Yes, the factory gets rid of the machine. There is evidence the
machine is over-filling the bottles.
No, the factory does not get rid of the machine. There is not
evidence the machine is over-filling the bottles.
Yes, the factory gets rid of the machine. There is not evidence the
