### Hypothesis Testing for Mean Tuna ConsumptionA nutritionist claims that the mean tuna consumption by a person is 3.5 pounds per year. A sample of 90 people shows a mean tuna consumption of 3.3 pounds per year. It is given that the population standard deviation is 1.02 pounds. At a significance level of α = 0.08, can you reject the claim?#### (a) Identify the Null Hypothesis and Alternative HypothesisThe given options for hypotheses are:- **A**. $ H_0: \mu \leq 3.5 $; $ H_a: \mu > 3.5 $- **B**. $ H_0: \mu > 3.5 $; $ H_a: \mu \leq 3.5 $- **C**. $ H_0: \mu \neq 3.3 $; $ H_a: \mu = 3.3 $- **D**. $ H_0: \mu = 3.5 $; $ H_a: \mu \neq 3.5 $ (Correct)- **E**. $ H_0: \mu \leq 3.3 $; $ H_a: \mu > 3.3 $- **F**. $ H_0: \mu > 3.3 $; $ H_a: \mu \leq 3.3 $The correct hypothesis statement is:- **Null Hypothesis ($ H_0 $)**: $ \mu = 3.5 $- **Alternative Hypothesis ($ H_a $)**: $ \mu \neq 3.5 $#### (b) Identify the Standardized Test StatisticTo calculate the z-score, the formula is:\[z = \frac{\bar{x} - \mu}{\sigma/\sqrt{n}}\]Where:- $ \bar{x} $ = Sample mean = 3.3- $ \mu $ = Population mean under null hypothesis = 3.5- $ \sigma $ = Population standard deviation = 1.02- $ n $ = Sample size = 90Calculate the z-score and fill in the provided box, rounding to two decimal places.\[ z = \frac{3.3 -

Given information- Population mean, μ = 3.5 pounds Sample mean, x-bar = 3.3 pounds Sample size, n = 90 Population standard deviation, σ = 1.02 pounds Significance level, α = 0.08 Hypothesis Formulation- Null Hypothesis, H0: μ = 3.5 Alternate Hypothesis, Ha: μ ≠ 3.5 Since here population standard deviation is known and the sample size is >30, so using z-test statistics.

As a bonus assignment a former student checked if your professor gave a statisticallysignificant difference in grades between his male and female students. She based herstudy based on grades assigned in intermediate Econ courses (Econ 303, 305 and 317)and her sample included nm = 485 male students and nf = 264 female students. Theaverage grades received were xm = 84.6 and xf = 85.8 The population standad deviation were σ m = 12.0 and σ f = 11.4 8. From the same extra-credit study as in question 7 see above, this former student found that the proportion of female students in principle courses (Econ 203, 205) was ?̅? = 0.380, while the proportion of female students in intermediate courses (Econ 303, 305, 317) was ?̅? = 0.352. The principle courses sample size was np = 782, while the intermediate courses sample size was ni = 749. Test the hypothesis that female students are less in intermediate courses using a 90% confidence level and the p-value approach.
