A sample of 49 past customers shows an average delivery time of 13.2 days with a standard deviation of 4.6 days.  State the null and alternative hypotheses and test the hypothesis at the 99% confidence level.  Compute and test the null hypothesis using the P-value.
  2. A manufacturer of electrical products will not accept a shipment of parts from a vendor if there is reason to believe that the mean resistance is not 100 ohms. A random sample of 25 selected from a large shipment yields a mean of 97 ohms and a standard deviation of 10 ohms.  Should the shipment be accepted?  Use a .02 level of significance to justify your answer.
