Since the interval is partly negative, it is also possible that the mileage with the discount gas is better. 3. TWO-SAMPLE t . Let μ 1 = Nitrites, μ 2 = Control, Hypotheses: H o : μ 1 = μ 2 H a : μ 1 < μ 2 Sample sizes are large enough that normality is not an issue. We also expect that the samples are chosen randomly. ( 29 2 2 7880 8112 1115 1250 30 30 t-= + = -.759 and p = .226 Conclusion: Since the p-value is not very low, we fail to reject the null hypothesis. It does not appear that nitrites can significantly reduce the amount of bacteria in meat....
