Question
A company is claiming that the lifetimes of the certain aluminum alloy parts they manufactured is more than 750 days. In an experiment to measure the lifetimes of parts, 73 parts were loaded cyclically until failure. The mean number of kilocycles to failure was 783, and the standard deviation was 120. Let μ represent the mean number of
kilo cycles to failure for parts of this type.
a.Please state the null and alternate hypotheses.
b.Find the P-value.
c. Please state your conclusion of the hypothesis testing

- An IQ test is designed so that the mean is 100 and the standard deviation is 24 for the population of normal adults. Find the sample size necessary to estimate the mean IQ score of statistics students such that it can be said with 90% confidence that the sample mean is within 8 IQ points of the true mean. Assume that o = 24 and determine the required sample size using technology. Then determine if this is a reasonable sample size for a real world calculation. ... The required sample size is. (Round up to the nearest integer.) Would it be reasonable to sample this number of students? O No. This number of IQ test scores is a fairly small number. Yes.
