Engineers also commonly assume that characteristics of materials vary Normally. Suppose that the strength of pieces of wood like these follows a Normal distribution, with standard deviation 3000 pounds. Is there statistically significant evidence at thea = 0.10 level against the hypothesis that the meanis 32,500 pounds for the two-sided alternative? Is there statistically significant evidence at thea = 0.10 level against the hypothesis that the meanis 31,500 pounds for the two-sided alternative?
