A manufacturer claims that his tires last at least 40,000
miles. A test on 25 tires reveals that the mean life of a tire
is 39,750 miles, with a standard deviation of 387 miles.

In performing a hypothesis test where the null
hypothesis is that the μ = 6.9. A random sample of 16
items is selected. The sample mean is 7.1 and the sample
standard deviation is 2.4. It can be assumed that the
population is normally distributed at α = .05.

A fast food outlet claims that the mean waiting time in
line is less than 3.5 minutes. A random sample of 20

outlet's claim.
