A two-sample test for means was conducted to test whether the mean number of movies watched each month differed between males and females. The Excel Data Analysis tool results are shown below.

a. Explain how to use this information to draw a conclusion if the null hypothesis is H₀: μ_F - μ_M ≤ 0. Clearly state the correct critical value and p-value and your conclusion. 

b. Explain how to use this information to draw a conclusion if the null hypothesis is H₀: μ_F - μ_M ≥ 0. Clearly state the correct critical value and p-value and your conclusion. 

c. Explain how to use this information to draw a conclusion if the null hypothesis is H₀: μ_F - μ_M = 0. Clearly state the correct critical value and p-value and your conclusion.
