A local pizza place claims that they average a delivery time of
7.32 minutes. To test this claim, you order 11 pizzas over the next
month at random times on random days of the week. You calculate the
average delivery time and sample standard deviation from the 11
delivery times (minutes), and with the sample mean and sample
standard deviation of the time (minutes), you create a 95%
confidence interval of (7.648, 9.992). (delivery time is normally
distributed)

A detergent manufacturer claims that the contents of
boxes sold weigh on average 1
kg or more. It is known from historical records that the weights
are normally distributed
with a standard deviation of 0.025 kg. A random sample of 16 boxes

results show that
the manufacturer’s claim is invalid.

A college claims that commute times to
the school have a mean of 60 minutes with a standard deviation of
12 minutes. Assume that student commute times at this
college are normally distributed. A statistics student
believes that the variation in student commute times is greater
than 12 minutes. To test this a sample of 71 students in
chosen and it is found that their mean commute time is 58 minutes
with a standard deviation of 14.5 minutes.
