Example of Hypothesis Testing Example #1 The manufacturer of the X-15 steel-belted radial truck tire claims that the mean mileage the tire can be driven before the tread wears out is 60,000 miles. The standard deviation of the mileage is 5,000 miles. The Crosset Truck Company bought 48 tires and found that the mean mileage for their trucks is 59,500 miles. Is Crossets experience different from that claimed by the manufacturer at the .05 significance level? H0: = 60,000 H1: 60,000

Null Hypothesis: Alternate Hypothesis: Two tailed test

Sample Mean 59,500 Standard Deviation 5,000 Number of Samples n 48 Stated mean 60,000 Significance Level 0.05 /2 (two-tailed test) 0.025 Decision Rule from z table 1.96 -1.96 This is a two tailed test Value of z -0.6928 Do not reject the null hypothesis as -0.6928 lies between -1.96 and 1.96 We can conclude that Crossets experience in not different from that claimed by the manufacturer at the .05 significance level

Example #2 The management of White Industries is considering a new method of assembling its golf cart. The present method requires 42.3 minutes, on the average, to assemble a cart. The mean assembly time for a random sample of 24 carts, using the new method, was 40.6 minutes, and the standard deviation of the sample was 2.7 minutes. Using the .10 level of significance, can we conclude that the assembly time using the new method is faster?

Null Hypothesis: Alternate Hypothesis: One tailed test and lower tailed Sample Mean Sample Standard Deviation Number of Samples n Stated mean Significance Level Degrees of Freedom n-1 Decision Rule from t table Value of t

H0: 42.3 H1: < 42.3

t Test for Hypothesis of the Mean

40.6 2.7000 24 42.3 0.1 23 1.319 -3.0845

Reject the null hypothesis as -3.0845 lies to the left of -1.319 We can conclude that the new method is faster using the .10 level of significance.
