Question

According to a report done by S & J Power, the mean lifetime of the light bulbs it manufactures is

months. A researcher for a consumer advocate group tests this by selecting

bulbs at random. For the bulbs in the sample, the mean lifetime is

months. It is known that the population standard deviation of the lifetimes is

months. Can we conclude, at the

0.10

level of significance, that the population mean lifetime,

, of light bulbs made by this manufacturer differs from

months?

Perform a two-tailed test. Then complete the parts below.

Carry your intermediate computations to three or more decimal places, and round your responses as specified below. (If necessary, consult a list of formulas.)

(a)	State the null hypothesis H0 and the alternative hypothesis H1 .
H0:
H1:
(b)	Determine the type of test statistic to use.
	▼(Choose one)
(c)	Find the value of the test statistic. (Round to three or more decimal places.)

(d)	Find the two critical values. (Round to three or more decimal places.)
and
(e)	Can we conclude that the population mean lifetime of light bulbs made by this manufacturer differs from 54 months?
