A report in LTO stated that the average age of taxis in the Philippines is 12 years. An operations manager of a large taxi company selects a sample of 40 taxis and finds the average age of the taxis is 11.2 years. The standard deviation of the population is 2.3 years. At 0.05 level of significance, can it be concluded that the average age of the taxis in his company is less than the national average?
Average Senior High School annual cost of tuition fee for all private schools last year was P46,300. A random sample of costs this year for 45 private schools indicated that the sample mean was P47,800 and a sample standard deviation was P5,600. At the 0.10 level of significance, is there sufficient evidence to conclude that the cost has increased?

A TV manufacturer claims that the life span of its regular TV sets is 12 years with a standard
deviation of 1.2 years. Using a random sample of their 20 TV sets, the average life span is found
to be 11.2 years. Test the hypothesis that the T sets’ life span of 12 years as claimed by the
manufacturer is true at 0.05 level.

The purchasing director of an industrial part factory is investigating the possibility of purchasing a new type of milling machine. He determines that the new machine will be bought if there is evidence that the parts produced have a higher mean breaking strength than those from the old machine. The population standard deviation of the breaking strength for the old machine is 10kg and for the new machine is 9 kg. A sample of 100 parts was taken from each machine. Old machine indicates a sample mean of 65kg while new machine indicates a sample mean of 72 kg. Using the 0.01 level of significance, is there evidence that the purchasing director should buy the new machine? (critical value = + 2.575 )
