A company which markets canned carrots advertises that their 15-ounce cans actuallyhave a mean weight of 15.1 ounces with a standard deviation of 0.1 ounce. To test thevalidity of their claim, a random sample of 12 cans was selected and weighed. The resultsare listed below:14.915.114.915.215.015.115.115.015.214.615.015.0At a significance level of 0.10 and using a confidence interval determine whether thecompany's claims can be repudiated (shown to be false). State hypotheses and conclusion.Also find the mean and standard deviation for this sample.

Round to two decimal places.
Do male and female servers work the same number of hours? A sample of 14 female servers worked an average of 27 hours per week, with a standard deviation of 4. A sample of 23 male servers worked an average of 35 hours per week, with a standard deviation of 3. Construct a 80% confidence interval for the mean difference in hours worked for male and female servers. Assume that the populations are normal with unequal variances. Round your answers to three decimal places, and use four decimal places for any interim calculations. Hint: Think about the formula for the confidence interval. How do we find to? How do we find the standard error given that we are assuming unequal variances? We are 80% confident that the interval (-9.672 -6.328 μ₁ −μ2 in hours worked between male and female servers.
