Two students have devised a dice game named “Sums” for their statistics class. The game consists of choosing to play odds or evens. Probabilities for “Sums”Roll23456789101112P(roll)Each person takes turns rolling two dice. If the sum is odd, the person playing odds gets points equal to the sum of the roll. If the sum is even, the person playing evens gets points equal to the sum of the roll. Note that the points earned is independent of who is rolling the dice.If Jessica is challenged to a game of Sums, which statement below is accurate in every aspect in guiding her to the correct choice of choosing to play odds or evens?

A manager of a grocery store wants to determine if consumers are spending more than the national average. The national average is $150.00 with a standard deviation of $30.20. The manager collects 40 random receipts and finds that the average is $160. Complete a hypothesis test with a significance level of 2.5% to determine if the average customer spends more in his store than the national average. Which of the following is a valid conclusion for the manager based on this test?
