The operations manager at a compact fluorescent Test light bulb (CFL) factory needs to estimate the mean life of a large shipment of CFLs. The manufacturer's specifications are that the standard deviation is 1,000 hours. A random sample of 64 CFLs indicated a sample mean life of 7,500 hours.
a. Construct a 95% confidence interval estimate for the popu- lation mean life of compact fluorescent light bulbs in this shipment.
b. Do you think that the manufacturer has the right to state that the compact fluorescent light bulbs have a mean life of 8,000 hours? Explain. bulb life is normally distributed? Explain. What are your answers in (a) and (b)?
c. Must you assume that the population compact fluorescent light
