A builder employs three types of workers : male, 15


female and children. He pays Rs. 350, Rs. 250 and
Rs. 200 per day to a male, female and child worker
respectively. Suppose he employs 40 males,
30 females and 10 children, determine
(a) Average wage per day paid by the builder
(b) Average wage per day paid by the builder
if the number of males, females and children
employed are equal.

4.

Two brands of electric bulbs are quoted at the 15


same price. A buyer tested a random sample of
100 bulbs of each brand and found the following :
Mean Life
Standard Deviation

Test the hypothesis that there is a significant
difference in the quality of the two brands of bulbs
at 5% level of significance. The critical value of Z
at 5% level of significance is 1.96.
