[Step-by-Step] The quality-control manager at a light bulb factory needs to determine whether the mean life of a large shipment of light bulbs is equal to 375 hours.


Question: The quality-control manager at a light bulb factory needs to determine whether the mean life of a large shipment of light bulbs is equal to 375 hours. The population standard deviation is 100 hours. A random sample of 64 light bulbs indicates a sample mean life of 350 hours.

  1. At the 0.05 level of significance, is there evidence that the mean life is different from 375 hours?
  2. Compute the p-value and interpret its meaning.
  3. Construct a 95% confidence interval estimate of the population mean life of the light bulbs.
  4. Compare the results of (a) and (c). What conclusions do you reach?
