A manufacturer claims that the average tensile strength of thread A exceeds the average tensile strength of thread B by at least 12 kilograms. To test this claim, 50 pieces of each type of thread were tested under similar conditions. Type A thread had an average tensile strength of 86.7 kilograms with a standard deviation of 6.28 kilograms, while type B thread had an average tensile strength of 77.8 kilograms with a standard deviation of 5.61 kilograms. Test the manufacturer’s claim using a 0.05 level of significance. 1. Determine the Z calculated in two decimal places. 2. Determine the Z table in two decimal places. 3. Is the manufacturing claim statistically valid? yes or no

"The temperature of an ice bath is measured numerous times with a digital thermometer. The true temperature of the ice bath is 0.07202C. The sample mean temperature is T = -0.0008C. The sample standard deviation of all the readings is 0.02529C. We assume that the precision errors in the readings are purely random. In the standard engineering format, calculate the tolerance for 95%."
