$1500
and a standard deviation of
$300.
a. Construct a
interval estimate for the mean spending for all shoppers who are members of the website's premium program.

- Agricultural scientists are testing a new chicken feed to see whether it increases the number of eggs laid. The scientists divided a flock in half and gave half of the chickens the new feed, while the other half were given a regular feed. The eggs laid in a one-year period for a random sample of 10 chickens using the new feed and 10 chickens using the regular feed are recorded. Assume that the population standard deviation of number of eggs laid is 12 eggs per year for both groups and that the number of eggs laid per year is normally distributed. Let the chickens given the new feed be the first sample, and let the chickens given the regular feed be the second sample. The scientists conduct a two-mean hypothesis test at the 0.05 level of significance to test if there is evidence that the new feed increases the number of eggs laid.

Who has the weight that is more extreme relative to the group from which they came: a male who weighs 1500 g or a female who weighs 1500 g?
