Suppose a firm producing light bulbs wants to know if it can claim that its light bulbs it produces last 1,000 burning hours (u). To do this, the firm takes a random sample of 100 bulbs and find its average life time (X=980 hrs) and the sample standard deviation s = 80 hrs. If the firm wants to conduct the test at the 1% of significance, what's you final suggestion?
(i..e, Should the producer accept the Ho that its light bulbs have a 1,000 burning hrs. at the 1% level of significance?)

Ho: u = 1,000 hours.
Ha: u <> 1,000 hours.

Perform a hypothesis test of the mean
Yes, accept null hypothesis
