A new drug on the market is claimed by its manufacturers to reduce overweight women by 4.55 kg per month with standard deviation of 0.91 kg. Ten women chosen at random have reported losing an average of 4.05 kg within a month. Does this data support the claim of the manufacturer at 0.05 level of significance?

The average number of miligrams (mg) of cholesterol in a cup of a certain brand of ice cream is 660 mg, the standard deviation is 35 mg. Assume the variable is normally distributed.
A. If a cup of ice cream is selected, what is the probability that the cholesterol content will be more than 670 mg?
B. If a sample of 10 cups of ice cream is selected, what is the probability that the mean of the sample will be larger that 670 mg?
