The CVS Pharmacy located on US 17 in Murrells Inlet has been one of the busiest pharmaceutical retail stores in South Carolina for many years. To try and capture more business in the area, CVS top management opened another store about 6 miles west on SC 707. After a few months, CVS management decided to compare the business volume at the two stores. One way to measure business volume is to count the number of cars in the store parking lots on random days and times. The results of the survey from the last 3 months of the year are reported below. To explain, the first observation was on October 2 at 20:52 military time (8:52 p.m.). At that time there were four cars in the US 17 lot and nine cars in the SC 707 lot. At the 0.05 significance level, is it reasonable to conclude that, based on vehicle counts, the US 17 store has more business volume than the SC 707 store?

The past records of a supermarket show that its customers spend an average of $110 per visit at this store. Recently the management of the store initiated a promotional campaign according to which each customer receives points based on the total money spent at the store, and these points can be used to buy products at the store. The management expects that as a result of this campaign, the customers should be encouraged to spend more money at the store. To check whether this is true, the manager of the store took a sample of 14 customers who visited the store. The following data give the money (in dollars) spent by these customers at this supermarket during their visits. 106.13 107.43 124.68 124.88 101.17 72.75 85.45 86.05 100.4 98.84 101.63 95.56 89.40 119.52 Assume that the money spent by all customers at this supermarket has a normal distribution.
