3. An ice-cream vendor installed a new automated ice-cream machine. The machine


is designed to dispense 500 mL of ice-cream on the medium size setting. The owner
suspects that the machine may be dispensing too much in medium size. They
decided to take a sample of 20 medium sizes to see if the average amount is
significantly greater than 500 mL. What are the appropriate hypotheses for their
significant test?

4. An online seller in Loreto regularly receives large shipments of fruits. For each
shipment that is received, the seller takes a random sample of 500 fruits to see
what percent of the sample is bruised and performs a significance test. If the
sample shows convincing evidence that more than 15% of the entire shipment of
fruits is bruised, then she will request a new shipment of fruits. Let p represent the
proportion of fruits in a shipment that are bruised. What are appropriate hypotheses
for the company's significance test?
