Er werd hier een goede conclusie genomen van de gegevens. Er moest inderdaad enkel gekeken worden naar de one-sided test omdat we enkel conclusies namen als het vetgehalte hoger lag dan 15% en het nutteloos was om te weten of het vetgehalte onder de 15% lag.

Het antwoord dat ik gegeven heb is correct. De critical value is inderdaad hoger dan het steekproefgemiddelde. Hieruit kunnen we afleiden dat er sprake is van een toevallige afwijking ten opzichte van het contractueel bepaalde vetgehalte. Bijgevolg moeten we de nulhypothese niet verwerpen.

We kunnen hier zowel een eenzijdige als een tweezijdige test gebruiken. Je moet natuurlijk wel kunnen argumenteren waarom je een eenzijdige of een tweezijdige test gebruikt.

Als we zouden kiezen voor een tweezijdige test, kunnen we dit beargumenteren doordat het mis kan gaan in 2 richtingen, namelijk teveel of teweinig vet.

Het zou wel logischer zijn moest je hier een eenzijdige test gebruiken. Want als er 'gefoefeld' wordt, zal dit altijd in een richting zijn, namelijk te veel vet.
