• As I mentioned in class, the due date for this assignment is extended by one one week. See below.
• Connect will give you three (3) attempts to find the correct answer.
• The problems you will see in the online asignment are taken from the text as follows: 1.8, 1.14, 2.9 (a, b), 2.12, 2.14, 2.28, 2.29, 2.31, 2.39
• Hints:
  • 1.8: Note that the range of the sample is from 36 to 48. Use this information to answer the first part.
  • 2.29: There is some ambiguity in this problem. I would think that since all the provinces are listed, we have a population. But the textbook authors have assumed this to be a sample.

• Connect will give you three (3) attempts to find the correct answer.
• The problems you will see in the online asignment are taken from the text as follows: [1] 3.8, [2] 3.22, [3] 3.34, [4] 3.62, [5] 3.68, [6] 4.12, [7] 4.18, [8] 4.54, [9] 4.58, [10] 4.64
• Statring time for the assignment depends on your section.
• Hints:
  • 4.18: The numbers under Company A+C returns are the x values and the probabilities p(x) are all 0.2. So, if you use the expected value (mean) formula and the variance formula for these values you should get the result.
  • 4.54: It is easier if you plot the points that correspond to each outcome (as I did in the two dice example). Then find the probabilities for each of the outcomes. That should work.
