The mean life of a certain bulb is 1000 hours and its standard deviation is 100 hours. A new brand of bulb has been introduced to the market. A sample of size n bulbs of the new brand reveals a sample mean of 1010 and the standard deviation is still 100 hours. What is the minimum n that would allow you to reject the hypothesis that the mean life of the new brand of bulb is 1000 at the 5% level? 180 300 205 400 200
