The​ quality-control manager at a compact fluorescent light bulb​ (CFL) factory needs to determine whether the mean life of a large shipment of CFLs is equal to
7520
hours. The population standard deviation is
980 hours.
A random sample of
49
light bulbs indicates a sample mean life of
7,310
hours.
a. At the
0.05
level of​ significance, is there evidence that the mean life is different from 7520 hours?
 
a. Let
μ
be the population mean. Determine the null​ hypothesis,
