A consumer advocate analyzes the nicotine content in two brands of cigarettes. A sample of 20 cigarettes of Brand A resulted in an average nicotine content of 1.68 milligrams with a standard deviation of 0.22 milligram; 25 cigarettes of Brand B yielded an average nicotine content of 1.95 milligrams with a standard deviation of 0.24 milligram. Construct the 95% confidence interval for the difference between the two population means. Nicotine content is assumed to be normally distributed. In addition, the population variances are unknown but assumed equal.

An economist claims that average weekly food expenditure for households in City 1 is more than the average weekly food expenditure for households in City 2. She surveys 35 households in City 1 and obtains an average weekly food expenditure of $164. A sample of 30 households in City 2 yields an average weekly food expenditure of $159. Prior studies suggest that the population standard deviation for City 1 and City 2 are $12.50 and $9.25, respectively. Specify the competing hypotheses to test the economist’s claim. Calculate the value of the test statistic and the p-value. At the 5% significance level, is the economist’s claim supported by the data?

Table shows annual return data for 10 firms in the gold industry and 10 firms in the oil industry. Can we conclude at the 5% significance level that the average returns in the two industries differ? Here we assume that the sample data are drawn independently from normally distributed populations. Since the variance is a common measure of risk when analyzing financial returns, we cannot assume that the risk from investing in the gold industry is the same as the risk from investing in the oil industry.
