The manager of a garment factory needs to determine whether the cloth purchased has a mean breaking strength of 50 pounds. The manufacturer specified standard deviation of 5 pounds is believed to be fairly accurate figure. A sample of 100 pieces revealed a mean breaking strength of 65 pounds. (a) Is there evidence to suggest that the cloth purchased is not meeting the required average breaking strength? Use a = 0.05 (10 marks) (b) The general manager of a major...

A financial planner wants to compare the yield of income- and growth-oriented mutual funds. Fifty thousand dollars is invested in each of a sample of 35 income-oriented and 40 growth-oriented funds. The mean increase for a two-year period for the income funds is $1100. For the growth‑oriented funds the mean increase is $1090. At the 0.01 significance level is there a difference in the mean yield of the two funds? Assume that σ1 = $45 and σ2 = $55....

The manager for a large grocery store chain would like to determine if a new cash register will enable cashiers to process a larger number of items on average than the cash register which they are currently using. Seven cashiers are randomly selected, and the number of grocery items which they can process in three minutes is measured for both the old cash register and the new cash register. Thus, for the same 7 cashiers, you get two data values...
