5. The manufacturer of the X-15 steel-belted radial truck tire claims that the mean mileage the tire can be driven before the tread wears out is 60,000 miles. Assume the mileage wear follows the normal distribution and the standard deviation of the distribution is 5,000 miles. Crosset Truck Company bought 48 tires and found that the mean mileage for its trucks is 59,500 miles. Is Crosset’s experience different from that claimed by the manufacturer at the .05 significance level?

Are job applicants with easy to pronounce last names more likely to get called for an interview than applicants with difficult to pronounce last names. 648 job applications were sent out with last names that are easy to pronounce and 755 identical job applications were sent out with names that were difficult to pronounce. 460 of the "applicants" with easy to pronounce names were called for an interview while 503 of the "applicants" with difficult to pronounce names were called for an interview. What can be concluded at the 0.10 level of significance?
