A coin-operated drink machine was designed to discharge a mean of 6 fluid ounces of coffee per cup. In a test of the
machine, the discharge amounts in 19 randomly chosen cups of coffee from the machine were recorded. The sample
mean and sample standard deviation were 5.88 fluid ounces and 0.2 fluid ounces, respectively.
If we assume that the discharge amounts are approximately normally distributed, is there enough evidence, to conclude
that the population mean discharge, u, differs from 6 fluid ounces? Use the 0.05 level of significance.
Perform a two-tailed test. Then complete the parts below.
Carry your intermediate computations to three or more decimal places. (If necessary, consult a list of formulas.)
(d) Find the p-value. (Round to three or more decimal places.)
(e) Can we conclude that the mean discharge differs from 6 fluid ounces?
