A particular brand of tires claims that its deluxe tire averages at least 50,000 miles before it needs to be replaced. From past

studies of this tire, the standard deviation is known to be 8,000. A survey of owners of that tire design is conducted. Of the 31 tires surveyed, the mean lifespan was 46,800 miles with a standard deviation of 9,800 miles. Using alpha Do the data support the claim at the 5% level?

<h2><u>Answer with explanation</u>:</h2>

Let \mu be the distance traveled by deluxe tire .

As per given , we have

Null hypothesis : H_0 : \mu \geq50000

Alternative hypothesis : H_a : \mu

Since H_a is left-tailed and population standard deviation is known, thus we should perform left-tailed z-test.

Test statistic : z=\dfrac{\overlien{x}-\mu}{\dfrac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}}

where, n= sample size

\overline{x}= sample mean

\mu= Population mean

s=sample standard deviation

For n= 31,\ \sigma=8000,\ \overline{x}=46,800\ \&\ s=46,800, we have

z=\dfrac{46800-50000}{\dfrac{8000}{\sqrt{31}}}=-2.23

By using z-value table,

P-value for left tailed test : P(z≤-2.23)=1-P(z<2.23)   [∵P(Z≤-z)=1-P(Z≤z)]

=1-0.9871=0.0129

 Decision : Since p value (0.0129) < significance level  (0.05), so we reject the null hypothesis .

[We reject the null hypothesis when p-value is less than the significance level .]

Conclusion : We do not have enough evidence at 0.05 significance level to support the claim that t its deluxe tire averages at least 50,000 miles before it needs to be replaced.
