problem is also a Monte Carlo simulation, but this time in the continuous domain: must use the following fact: a circle inscribed in a unit square
has as radius of 0.5 and an area of ?∗(0.52)=?4.π∗(0.52)=π4.
Therefore, if you generate num_trials random points in the unit square, and count how many land inside the circle, you can calculate an approximation of ?
For this problem, you must create code in python
(A) Draw the diagram of the unit square with inscribed circle and 500 random points, and calculate the value of ?
(B) Without drawing the diagram, calculate the value of ? you would get from 105 trials.
(C) After completing (B), try to get a more accurate value for ? by increasing the number of trials.The results will depend on your machine

Researchers collected data to examine the relationship between pollutants and preterm births in Southern California. During the study air pollution levels were measured by air quality monitoring stations. Specifically, levels of carbon monoxide were recorded in parts per million, nitrogen dioxide and ozone in parts per hundred million, and coarse particulate matter PM10 in μμg/m3. Length of gestation data were collected on 143,196 births between the years 1989 and 1993, and air pollution exposure during gestation was calculated for each birth. The analysis suggested that increased ambient PM10 and, to a lesser degree, CO concentrations may be associated with the occurrence of preterm births.

To obtain information on the corrosion-resistance properties of
a certain type of steel conduit, 45 specimens are buried in soil
for a 2-year period. The maximum penetration (in mils) for each
specimen is then measured, yielding a sample average penetration of
x = 52.4 and a sample standard deviation of s =
4.5. The conduits were manufactured with the specification that
true average penetration be at most 50 mils. They will be used
unless it can be demonstrated conclusively that the specification
has not been met. What would you conclude? (Use α =
0.05.)
State the appropriate null and alternative hypotheses.
A- H0: μ ≠ 50
Ha: μ > 50
B-) H0: μ = 50
Ha: μ ≠ 50
C-) H0: μ = 50
Ha: μ > 50
D-) H0: μ > 50
Ha: μ = 50

Is the national crime rate really going down? Some sociologists say yes! They say that the reason for the decline in crime rates in the 1980s and 1990s is demographics. It seems that the population is aging, and older people commit fewer crimes. According to the FBI and the Justice Department, 70% of all arrests are of males aged 15 to 34 years.† Suppose you are a sociologist in Rock Springs, Wyoming, and a random sample of police files showed that of 31 arrests last month, 23 were of males aged 15 to 34 years. Use a 1% level of significance to test the claim that the population proportion of such arrests is the city different from 70%. Solve the problem using both the traditional method and the P-value method. Since the sampling distribution of p̂ is the normal distribution, you can use critical values from the standard normal distribution as shown in the table of critical values of the z distribution. (Round the test statistic and the critical value to two decimal places. Round the P-value to four decimal places.)
test statistic | = | |
critical value | = ± | |
P-value | = |
State your conclusion in the context of the application.
There is sufficient evidence at the 0.01 level to conclude that the true proportion of such arrests in the city differs from 70%.There is insufficient evidence at the 0.01 level to conclude that the true proportion of such arrests in the city differs from 70%.

The U.S. Department of Transportation, National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, reported that 77% of all fatally injured automobile drivers were intoxicated. A random sample of 33 records of automobile driver fatalities in Kit Carson County, Colorado, showed that 18 involved an intoxicated driver. Do these data indicate that the population proportion of driver fatalities related to alcohol is less than 77% in Kit Carson County? Use α = 0.01. Solve the problem using both the traditional method and the P-value method. Since the sampling distribution of p̂ is the normal distribution, you can use critical values from the standard normal distribution as shown in the table of critical values of the z distribution.
