8.2.3 A research engineer for a tire manufacturer is investigating
tire life for a new rubber compound and has built 16 tires and
tested them to end-of-life in a road test. The sample mean and
standard deviation are 60,139.7 and 3645.94 kilometers. Find a
95% confidence interval on mean tire life.
8.2.4 Determine the t-percentile that is required to construct each of the following one-sided confidence intervals:
a. Confidence level = 95%, degrees of freedom = 14
b. Confidence level = 99%, degrees of freedom = 19
c. Confidence level = 99.9%, degrees of freedom = 24
8.1.6The yield of a chemical process is being studied. From previous experience, yield is known to be normally
distributed and σ = 3. The past 5 days of plant operation have
resulted in the following percent yields: 91.6, 88.75, 90.8, 89.95,
and 91.3. Find a 95% two-sided confidence interval on the true
mean yield.
8.1.7 .A manufacturer produces piston rings for an automobile engine. It is known that ring diameter is normally distributed
with σ = 0.001 millimeters. A random sample of 15 rings has a
mean diameter of x = 74.036 millimeters.
a. Construct a 99% two-sided confidence interval on the
mean piston ring diameter.
b. Construct a 99% lower-confidence bound on the mean
piston ring diameter. Compare the lower bound of this confi-
dence interval with the one in part (a).
