10. A drink vending machine is adjusted so that, on average, it dispenses 200ml of fruit juice with a
standard deviation of 13ml into a plastic cup. However, the machine tends to go out of adjustment
and periodic checks are made to determine the average amount of fruit juice being dispensed. The
operator thinks that the amount dispensed is less than 200 ml. So to verify, a sample of 25 drinks is
taken to test the adjustment of the machine and a mean of 195 is obtained. For α = 5%, an
appropriate decision rule would be _________________________________.
a. retain the null hypothesis
b. support the null hypothesis
c. reject the null hypothesis
d. fail to reject the null hypothesis
