How much horsepower is needed, in a vehicle described below, to travel a distance of 1 statute mile in 35 seconds, from a standing start, with the following information:

Air density @ sea level, 59 degrees, no wind = p = .002377 slugs/ft^3

Coefficient of drag (flat plate, NASA) = C(d) = 1.28

Weight = W = 4451 lbs

Area = A = 197.5" long x 78.2" wide x (1 ft^2/ 144 in^2) ( Size of vehicle)

1. Suppose we are interested in analyzing how much people spend on travel during the summer. We know that on average, people spend $1005 on travel with a population standard deviation of $1740. Suppose we take a sample of 30 people and we find that the average spent from that sample is $1850. We are interested in seeing if the amount spent on travel is increasing. a. What is the standard error? b. What is the margin of error at...
