Determine whether carpeted rooms have more bacteria than uncarpeted rooms at the
alpha equals 0.05α=0.05
level of significance. Normal probability plots indicate that the data are approximately normal and boxplots indicate that there are no outliers.
State the null and alternative hypotheses. Let population 1 be carpeted rooms and population 2 be uncarpeted rooms.
 
 
A.
Upper H 0H0​:
mu 1 less than mu 2μ1<μ2
Upper H 1H1​:
mu 1 greater than mu 2μ1>μ2
 
B.
Upper H 0H0​:
mu 1 equals mu 2μ1=μ2
Upper H 1H1​:
mu 1 greater than mu 2μ1>μ2
Your answer is correct.
 
C.
Upper H 0H0​:
mu 1 equals mu 2μ1=μ2
Upper H 1H1​:
mu 1 less than mu 2μ1<μ2
 
D.
Upper H 0H0​:
mu 1 equals mu 2μ1=μ2
Upper H 1H1​:
mu 1 not equals mu 2μ1≠μ2
Determine the​ P-value for this hypothesis test.
 
​P-valueequals=nothing
​(Round to three decimal places as​ needed.)
