Compute the test and p-value using standard deviation

Reference no: EM13120288

A producer of various kinds of batteries has been producing "D" size batteries with a life expectancy of 87 hours. Due to an improved production process, management believes that there has been an increase in the life expectancy of their "D" size batteries. A sample of 36 batteries showed an average life of 88.5 hours. Assume from past information that it is known that the standard deviation of the population is 9 hours. Give the null and alternative hypotheses. Compute the test and p-value. Use a=0.01 to make your conclusion based on the p-value.
