It is claimed by the makers of Kellogg's Raisin Bran that in each value-sized box of Raisin Bran, there are "two scoops of raisins." It turns out that "two scoops" of raisins is equivalent to 10 ounces of raisins. If each value-sized box of raisins should have two scoops, or 10 ounces, of raisins, this means that if we could look at the population of value-sized boxes of Raisin Bran, the average amount of raisins in the boxes would be 10 ounces. Suppose there is concern that the machines responsible for filling the value-sized boxes might be putting more than 10 ounces of raisins in each box. A sample of 100 value-sized boxes is inspected by a quality assurance engineer, and he finds the boxes contain an average of 10.2 ounces of raisins, with a sample standard deviation of 0.8 ounces. If a hypothesis test is conducted in order to test the claim that H,: u = 10 , what will the P-value be?
