The mean weight of males aged over 30 years in a certain population is 76 KG. Recently there was some tendency among this population to practice exercises to reduce weight. A random sample of size 40 is selected and it is found that sample mean and standard deviation are 74 and 8 respectively. Do the data provide sufficient evidence to conclude that the mean weight for this population has reduced. Use 5% significance level.

please can someone help

A helium balloon ride lifts up passengers in a basket. Assume the density of air is 1.28 kg/m3 and the density of helium in the balloon is 0.18 kg/m3. The radius of the balloon (when filled) is R = 4.5 m. The total mass of the empty balloon and basket is mb = 123 kg and the total volume is Vb = 0.068 m3. Assume the average person that gets into the balloon has a mass mp = 74 kg and volume Vp = 0.077 m3.
