The company wants to know if there is a difference in the mean amount of money people spend per morith on Internet purchases depending on their age bracket. The marketing firm looked at two age groups, 18-24 years and 25-30 years, and collected the data shown in the following table. Let Population 1 be the amount of money spent per month on internet purchases by people in the 18-24 age bracket and Population 2 be the amount of money spent per month on internet purchases by people in the 25-30 age bracket.

- A contributor for the local newspaper is writing an article for the weekly fitness section. To prepare for the story, she conducts a study to compare the exercise habits of people who exercise in the morning to the exercise habits of people who work out in the afternoon or evening. She selects three different health centers from which to draw her samples. The 57 people she sampled who work out in the morning have a mean of 4.8 hours of exercise each week. The 56 people surveyed who exercise in the afternoon or evening have a mean of 4.2 hours of exercise each week. Assume that the weekly exercise times have a population standard deviation of 0.8 hours for people who exercise in the morning and 0.3 hours for people who exercise in the afternoon or evening.
