  1. The level of sulphur in batches of an aircraft fuel is claimed by the manufacturer to be symmetrically distributed with a median value of 0.10%. Successive batches are found to have sulphur concentrations of 0.09, 0.12, 0.10, 0.11, 0.08, 0.17, 0.12, 0.14 and 0.11%. Use the sign test and the Wilcoxon signed rank test to check the manufacturer’s claim.

19. An aircraft manufacturer requires bolts that are part of the landing gear assembly to have a mean diameter of 1.1 inches with a variance of no more than 0.04 inches2. The bolts are purchased from an outside supplier. A random sample of 30 bolts from a recently received shipment yielded a variance of 0.054 inches2. Should the shipment be returned?

Blochead, the world's largest, and extremely profitable, manufacturer of military aircraft, employs test pilots to fly its planes in various experimental stages. To compensate them for their rare skills and the extremely hazardous nature of their work - a considerable number of pilots are seriously injured or killed every year - the company pays each pilot an annual salary of $1 million. Rob Serra, one of Blochead’s top pilots, test-flew its experimental X-Z, which was on course to becoming the...
