The buyer of shirts for a department store wants to test whether shirts with sleeve labels of 33 inches really are 33 inches on average. A random sample of 100 from 10,000 incoming shirts is taken. The sample shows a mean length of 33.1 inches and a standard deviation of 0.2 inches. The buyer wants to see if there is sufficient evidence that the mean sleeve length significantly differs from 33 inches?
Use α = 0.05.
Set up the correct null and alternative hypothesis.
Group of answer choices
Ho: Mu = 33 Ha: Mu > 33
Ho: Xbar = 33 Ha: Xbar > 33
Ho: Mu = 33 Ha: Mu < 33
Ho: Mu = 33 Ha: Mu ≠33

The security department of a factory wants to know whether the true average time required by the night guard to walk his round is less than 20 minutes. In a random sample of 35 rounds, the night guard averaged 19.61 minutes while his rounds varied by a standard deviation of s = 1.3 minutes. Test, at significance level α = 0.05, whether there is evidence that the true average time it takes the night guard to walk his round is...
