A nutritionist claims on the mean tuna consumption
. A nutritionist claims that the mean tuna consumption by a person is 3.7 pounds per year. A sample of 80 people shows that the mean tuna consumption by a person is 3.3 pounds per year. Assume the population standard deviation is 1.04 pounds. At α=0.1, can you reject the claim?
A. (a) Identify the null hypothesis and alternative hypothesis.
b. (b) Identify the standardized test statistic.
C. Find the P-value.(Round three decimal places)
D. Decide whether to reject or fail to reject the null hypothesis.
8. A politician claims that the mean salary for managers in his state is more than the national mean, $81,000. Assume the the population is normally distributed and the population standard deviation is $9700. The salaries (in dollars) for a random sample of 30 managers in the state are listed. At α=0.04, is there enough evidence to support the claim? Use technology.

9. Use technology and a t-test to test the claim about the population mean μ at the given level of significance α using the given sample statistics. Assume the population is normally distributed.
Claim: μ>74; α=0.01 Sample statistics: x=74.2, s=3.6, n=27
