Random samples of female and male UVA undergraduates are asked to estimate the number of alcoholic drinks that each consumes on a typical weekend. The data is below:

Females (Population 1): 2, 2, 2, 1, 3, 1, 3, 5, 5, 3

Males (Population 2): 5, 5, 6, 4, 4, 6, 3, 3, 3, 5

Give a 92.3% confidence interval for the difference between mean female and male drink consumption. (Assume that the population variances are equal.)

An Office of Admissions document claims that 54.6% of UVA undergraduates are female. To test whether this claim is accurate, a random sample of 225 UVA undergraduates was selected. In this sample, 54.6667% were female. Is there sufficient evidence to conclude that the document's claim is false? Carry out a hypothesis test at a 1% significance level. The p-value is:

Researchers equipped random samples of 46 male and 58 female students from a large university with a small device that secretly records sound for a random 30 seconds during each 12.5-minute period over two days. Then they counted the number of words spoken by each subject during each recording period and, from this, estimated how many words per day each subject speaks. The female estimates had a mean of 16,177 words per day with a standard deviation of 7520 words...
