Answer 1

Answer

it is given that the nutritionist believes that the true mean number of calories served at lunch at all school in the country exceeds 800 calories

this means that it is a right tailed hypothesis, where null hypothesis will be that the mean is equal to 800 and alternate hypothesis will be that the mean is higher than 800

$H_o: \mu = 800 \\ H_a:\mu >800$
