Case #2 Hypothesis Testing: (50 pts.) The data for Case #2 is a random sample of testing to measure the strength of a manufacturers new trash bag material.

The CEO of Durable Bags Inc. is planning to introduce a new, improved version of the company's current trash bag. The material used to make the new bag utilizes a new formula that the companys scientists believe will prove to be the strongest on the market. This new material was developed to counter the number one brand of bag on the market that claims to hold 50 lbs. of material without breaking.

The CEO of Durable Bags Inc. has asked you to design a research study that will prove that the new Durable bag is the strongest on the market. Your overall approach must follow the Six-Step Process (Version 1) as defined in the reference titled Hypothesis Testing the Six Step Process." This SSP is also discussed (and demonstrated) in the Week 3 PPT slides and the Wk. 3 Study Guide. Your approach should be as follows:

1. Complete the first four steps of the SSP (15 pts.)

2. Using the data from the random sample taken by your staff, run the appropriate test (15 pts.)

3. Finish Steps 5 & 6 of the SSP (20 pts.)
