The value of the test statistic is
3.
Since |3| 1.960 z0.05/2, we reject H0 and accept H1. Thus we can conclude that
the mean annual income of all government employees is not $35,000.
[Solution] The plan will be profitable when 22, and not profitable when
= We have
H0: = 22, H1: 22, 0.1.
-0.91
Since 0.91 1.282 z0.1, we do not reject H0. The chief financial officer
cannot conclude that the plan is profitable at the 10% significance level.

Example 3 Suppose that it is known from experience that the standard deviation
of the weights of 8-kg bags of rice packed by a certain factory is 0.16 kg. To
check whether its production is under control on a given day, a manager selected
a random sample of 25 bags and found that their mean weight is 8.081 kg. Test
whether the mean weight of all 8-kg bags packed on that day is more than 8 kg at
the 1% level of significance.
2.531
Since 2.531 2.326 z0.01, we reject H0 and accept H1. Thus we can conclude
that the mean weight of all 8-kg bags packed on the given day is more than 8 kg.
