Summarize the results and analyze the data. The data is Alice's results of whether she knows the difference between Coca Cola from Pepsi. She claims she knows the difference. I hypothesized that she did not know the difference. I used 16 samples of cups of Soda. Eight had Coca Cola and 8 had Pepsi and asked her to taste two at a time: one taste of Coca Cola and one taste of Pepsi and then tell me which one is Coca Cola. Complete the bottom table and:
1)Write the null hypothesis,
2)Decide on the type of test, One tail and Do calculations
3)Determine whether a binomial or normal theory is used to analyze your data?
4) complete chart below
