According to the U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA), cartons of 12 large eggs should have a minimum weight of 24 oz; that's an average egg weight of 2 oz or more. You suspect that a certain producer sells eggs of inferior caliber (lower weight) in its cartons labeled large eggs. What parameter is your inference about? A) is the mean carton weight for all eggs from that producer. B) μ is the number of eggs in a carton of large eggs. C) μ is the mean egg weight for all eggs from that producer. D) μ is the mean egg weight for a certain carton. State H0 and Ha for a test to assess your suspicion. A) H0: μ = 12 oz; Ha: μ > 12 oz. B) H0: μ = 12 oz; Ha: μ < 12 oz. C) H0: μ = 2 oz; Ha: μ < 2 oz. D) H0: μ = 2 oz; Ha: μ ≠ 2 oz.
