“The average life of fluorescent light bulbs is at least 1600 hours.” A sample of 50 bulbs is tested and the average life was 1590 hours. If σ was known to be 50 hours, what would the p-value be? (Use the method from the first primer - not the calculator function) e) Interpret what the p-value means in the context of this problem. f) Pick an α and state your conclusion.
On a string of pearls, the largest pearl is in the center and the smallest pearls are on the ends. Each of the small pearls on the two ends costs $1; each of the next larger pearls costs $2 each; the third pearl from each end costs $3 each; and so on. On the basis of this plan, how much would a string of 9 pearls cost? 12? 25? n? What kind of function is this? You are expected to incorporate multiple representations in your response.
