Er is hier naar de verkeerde waarden gekeken voor het interval.
Het betrouwbaarheidsinterval ligt hier tussen 0.1107 & 0.1933.
Aan het right one sided confidential interval zien we dat we H0 niet moeten verwerpen. De kritische waarde bedraagt hier 0.187, het bekomen gemiddelde is kleiner.

Het antwoord op deze vraag is incorrect, hoewel de berekeningen juist uitgevoerd zijn.
We gebruiken hier een one-sided confidence interval omdat deze nauwkeuriger is. Wanneer we een two-sided test gebruiken, wordt de 5% foutmarge verdeeld over de linkse en rechtse staart. Dit maakt de resultaten extremer.
Aangezien we er vanuit moeten gaan dat het werkelijke vetgehalte 15.2% is, zullen we deze veronderstelling dus moeten beschouwen als de nieuwe nulhypothese.
Het nieuwe betrouwbaarheidsinterval bedraagt nu 0.186 en de sample mean van 0.1546 valt zeer duidelijk binnen dit betrouwbaarheidsinterval. We kunnen dus besluiten dat het gemiddelde van 15.46% consistent is met het vetpercentage van 15.2%.
