Question
1. Pretend that in a certain city the number of new cases of COVID was reported to be 200 new cases on Sunday. Let’s pretend that the number of new cases grows by 22% on Monday, and then after that falls by 22% on Tuesday
Question C:
What percent would the percent increase have to be on Monday to have a total change of zero% from Sunday to Tuesday? i.e. new covid cases go up by ???% on Monday and then down 22% on Tuesday for a total change of 0%. (Use decimals in answer if needed)

- Recall that Benford's Law claims that numbers chosen from very large data files tend to have "1" as the first nonzero digit disproportionately often. In fact, research has shown that if you randomly draw a number from a very large data file, the probability of getting a number with "1" as the leading digit is about 0.301. Now suppose you are an auditor for a very large corporation. The revenue report involves millions of numbers in a large computer file. Let us say you took a random sample of n = 215 numerical entries from the file and r = 50 of the entries had a first nonzero digit of 1. Let p represent the population proportion of all numbers in the corporate file that have a first nonzero digit of 1.(i) Test the claim that p is less than 0.301. Use ? = 0.10.

A population of 30 chemical processing units is to be sampled by a two-person crew. The mean time between calls for this operation is 68 minutes. If the mean service rate is one unit per minute, the cost of the crew and instruments will be $16 per minute. This cost will decrease to $12, $9, and $7 for service intervals of 2,3, and 4 minutes, respectively. The time between calls for service and the service duration are distributed exponentially. If lost profit is $28 per hour for each unit that is idle, find the minimum cost service interval.arrow_forwardRecall that Benford's Law claims that numbers chosen from very large data files tend to have "1" as the first nonzero digit disproportionately often.
