A manufacturer believes that the mean energy output of their solar panels is 228 Watts. A random sample of 25 solar panels was tested and the average energy output was 226.5 Watts. It is known that the standard deviation of energy output for the panels the manufacturer produces is 3.5 Watts. A test is carried out to determine if the average energy output of the manufactured panels is different from 228 Watts. What is the p-value for this test (four decimal places)?

HT Mean: A Packaging Company produces boxes out of cardboard and
has a specified weight of 35 oz. It is known that the weight of a
box is normally distributed with standard deviation 1.3 oz. A
random sample of 36 boxes yielded a sample mean of 35.5 oz. At 5%
level of significance, test the claim that the mean weight of a box
is 35 oz or is there significant evidence that the mean weight is
greater than 35 oz....

A manufacturer produces smartwatches that have a mean life of at
least 200 hours when the production process is working properly.
Based on past experience, it is known that the population standard
deviation is 25 hours and the smartwatch life is normally
distributed. The operations manager selects a random sample of 25
smartwatches, and the mean life of smartwatchers is recorded.
