(a) The population must be normally distributed to compute probabilities involving the
sample mean. If the population is normally distributed, then the sampling distribution of X

bar is also normally distributed with μ x́bar = 69 and σ x́ = =4.33

(b)No, since the confidence internal does not include 8000hours, the manufacturer cannot
support a claim that the bulbs have a mean of 8000 hours.
(c)No, because miu is known ans n = 64, from the central limit theorem, you know that the
sampling distribution of X bar is approximately normal.
(d) No, since the confidence internal does not include 8000hours, the manufacturer cannot
support a claim that the bulbs have a mean of 8000 hours.
