Based on the limited amount of available student parking spaces on the GSU campus, students are being encouraged to ride their bikes (when appropriate).

The administration conducted a survey to determine the proportion of students who ride a bike to campus. Of the 123 students surveyed 5 rides a bike to campus.

Which of the following is a reason the administration should not calculate a confidence interval to estimate the proportion of all students who ride a bike to campus? Check all that apply.

The sample needs to be random but we don’t know if it is.

The actual count of bike riders is too small.

The actual count of those who do not ride a bike to campus is too small.

n*^p is not greater than 10.

n*(1−^p)is not greater than 10.

If there were no parking meters and fees, how do you think the available parking spaces would be allocated? Would that allocation system be better? For whom? Without parking fees, do you think people would perceive that there is more or less of a "parking problem"? If parking fees are to be used, should they vary by location? Time of day? Time of year?

Economics: Supply and Demand USF issues parking permits to allow students to park on campus. The price of the permit is set by college administrators at their discretion, they do not consider market conditions. At the current price, some students complain that there aren’t enough spaces for them to park. A) Describe this situation in economic terms and describe what this implies about the market equilibrium and the price of a parking permit. B) Should the price of a parking...

Many University campuses sell parking permits to their students allowing them to park on campus in designated areas. Although most students complain about the relatively high cost of these permits, what annoys many of these students even more is that after having paid for their permits, vacant parking spaces in the designated lots are very difficult to find during much of the day. Many end up having to park off campus anyway, where permits are not required. Assuming the University...

The student academic group on a college campus claims that freshman students study at least 2.5 hours per day, on average. One Introduction to Statistics class was skeptical. The class took a random sample of 30 freshman students and found a mean study time of 137 minutes with a standard deviation of 45 minutes. At α = 0.01 level, is the student academic group’s claim correct? Calculate the p-value.
