  1. estimate the average time spent on studying statistics (in general - in group of all students you took your sample from) with 90% or 95% confidence
  2. the same but just for men/women  
  3. check whether male and female students spend the same number of hours studying statistics (or test that women study more) - test appropriate hypotheses about two means

  4. You may also infer about proportion, like proportion of students studying more than 4 hours weekly - estimate it at some confidence level, verify whether it's more than say 30%.
