(a) what are the null and alternative hypotheses the ftc should use? (b) suppose that the ftc gathers information from a very large random sample of patrons and finds first with a that the average weight loss during month in the program is x 7.9 pounds pounds itn p-value for this result of 0.006. what is the con clusion of the test? are the results statistica significant?
