A rule of thumb used by nutritionist is that to lose one LB of body fat, you need to burn three, 500 cal about what you take in. If you burn 450 more calories than you take in each day, how long will it take to lose one LB? What about 10 LB?

On a certain portion of an experiment, a statistical test result yielded a p-value of 0.21. what can you conclude? 2(0.21) = 0.42 < 0.5; the test is not statistically significant. if the null hypothesis is true, one could expect to get a test statistic at least as extreme as that observed 21% of the time, so the test is not statistically significant. 0.21 > 0.05; the test is statistically significant. if the null hypothesis is true, one could expect to get a test statistic at least as extreme as that observed 79% of the time, so the test is not statistically significant. p = 1 - 0.21 = 0.79 > 0.05; the test is statistically significant.
