At a border inspection station, vehicles arrive at a rate of 10 per hour in a Poisson distribution. For simplicity in this problem, assume there is only one lane and one inspector, who can inspect vehicles at the rate of 12 per hour in an exponentially distributed fashion.

- Suppose that we want to determine if the average amount of timespent online by the students is lessthan 4.5 hours/day. To this end, weconduct a survey of students and askthem how long they spend online perday. We obtain the following results:4.1, 4.3, 4.3, 4.5, 4.6, 4.3, 4.1, 4.6,4.7, 4.6, 4.7, 4.1, 4.3, 4.3, 4.5, 4.6,4.3, 4.1, 4.6, 4.7, 4.6, 4.7, 4.5, 4.6,4.3, 4.1 Assume that the number ofhours spent online has a normal distribution.

- A political newspaper, Politically Sound, is interested in the distances voters in Rising Falls County live from their nearest polling station. Politically Sound has hired you to estimate the population mean of all such distances for voters in this county. To estimate this population mean, you select a random sample of 17 Rising Falls County voters and record the distance (in km) each voter lives from their nearest polling station. Assume the population is approximately normally distributed. Based on your sample, follow the steps below to construct a 99% confidence interval for the population mean of all the distances voters in Rising Falls County live from their nearest polling station. (If necessary, consult a list of formulas.) (a) Click on "Take Sample" to see the results for your random sample.

- A sample of students is to be selected to estimate the proportion who have recieved a medical examination during the past year. The survey found that x =567 students were examined during the past year.

To study the spread of the virus, measure " distance" by the number of home ranges separating a group of gorillas from the first group infected. Here are data on distance and number of days until deaths began in each later group: Distance xx 2 5 4 4 4 6 Days yy 4 21 29 40 47 49 Use a calculator or software to find the following values.

The participants (n=30) ran a 100 meter sprint before the consumption of caffeine on day 1 and then they ran another 100 meter sprint on the following day 2 after ingesting caffeine. The average time taken to run the 100 meter sprint on day 1 was (M1) and the average to run on day 2 after caffeine was (M2). The variance for this study was calculated to be (S2). Does caffeine use improve the running time in the 100 meter sprint (e.g., lower time)? Use all of the data provided to you below and test at an alpha of 0.05.
