Question: The mean life span of an electric bulb is 350 hours, with a standard deviation of 10 hours. A random sample 40 of a particular brand of electric bulbs is taken and found that their mean life span was 348 hours. State the null hypothesis( Ho) for the situation.
A ) Ho: The mean life span of the bulbs = 400 B ) Ho: The mean life span of the bulbs = 300 C ) Ho: The mean life span of the bulbs = 450 D ) Ho: The mean life span of the bulbs = 350
Steps to derive
1 Ho: The mean life span of the bulbs = 350 hours.
