    The document contains two word problems involving hypothesis testing. The first problem examines whether the average content of 1-gallon paint cans from a supplier is less than 1 gallon. Based on a sample of 60 cans averaging 0.998 gallons, the null hypothesis that the average is >= 1 gallon is not rejected. The second problem examines whether the average length of steel bars from a manufacturer is less than the required 3 feet. Based on a sample of 50 bars averaging 2.95 feet, the null hypothesis that the average is >= 3 feet is not rejected. Both manufacturers' processes are determined to be working properly based on the statistical analysis. Random checking is recommended for quality assurance.

    Read, understand, and analyze carefully the given situations. Work on the problem and follow the step
    by step procedure in problem solving -- from null hypothesis to recommendation. Round off to three
    decimal places.

    1. The manager of a paint supply store would want to know if the content of a 1 gallon can of paint
    bought from a known paint producer is actually 1 gallon. As such, he randomly sampled 60 cans of paint
    and it yielded an average of 0.998 gallon with standard deviation of .04 gallon. At a .01 level of
    significance, is the average content of a one gallon can of paint is less than 1 gallon?

    Null Hypothesis: The average content of one gallon can of paint is more than or equal to 1 gallon.

    Alternative Hypothesis: The average content of one gallon can of paint is less than 1 gallon.

    Level of Significance: 0.01

    Degree of Freedom: (df) = n – 1 = 60 – 1 = 59

    T-test critical: -2.391

    -2.391
    Decision Rule: Reject null hypothesis if T <-2.391; otherwise, do not reject the null hypothesis.

    Computation:
    𝑥̅ − 𝜇 0.998− 1 −0.002
    𝑇= 𝑠 = 0.04 = 0.04 = -0.3873
    √𝑛 √60 7.74597

    Conclusion: Do not reject the null hypothesis, -0.3873 < -2.391; which means that the average content of
    one gallon can of paint is more than or equal to 1 gallon.

    Recommendation:

    The manager gets its paint supplies from a known paint producer. The result guarantees that the
    paint producer puts the exact amount of paint per can. This is to avoid its reputation a s a business to be
    taken down. The manager should be rest assured that his purchased can of paints are in exact amount.
    But for quality assurance, he should do random checking of his paint supplies.

    2. The production process in a steel bar manufacturing firm, if working properly, produces steel bars
    with a mean length of at least 3 feet. A test on randomly select 50 steel bars showed a mean length of
    2.95 feet with standard deviation of .35 foot. At a .05 level of significance, is the mean length of the
    steel bars shorter than 3 feet?

    Null hypothesis: The mean length of the steel bars is longer than or equal to 3 feet.

    Alternative Hypothesis: The mean length of the steel bars is shorter than 3 feet.

    Level of Significance: 0.05

    Degree of Freedom: (df) = n – 1 = 50 – 1 = 49

    T-test critical: -1.667

    -1.667
    Decision Rule: Reject null hypothesis if T <-1.667; otherwise, do not reject the null hypothesis.

    Computation:
    𝑥̅ − 𝜇 2.95−3 −0.05
    𝑇= 𝑠 = .35 = .35 = -1.01015
    √𝑛 √50 7.071068

    Conclusion: Do not reject the null hypothesis, -1.01015 < -1.667; which means that the mean length of
    the steel bars is longer than or equal to 3 feet.

    Recommendations:

    The result shows that the production process works properly and has good quality of steel bars
    produced. To maintain the said quality of product the manufacturing firm should frequently check its
    process’ output, the steel bars should be equal to 3 feet as it is the standard measurement and needed
    for operations needing steel bars. This could also result to better impact on the firm itself.
