For this problem, carry at least four digits after the decimal in your calculations. Answers may vary slightly due to rounding. In a random sample of 504 judges, it was found that 281 were introverts. (a) Let p represent the proportion of all judges who are introverts. Find a point estimate for p. (Round your answer to four decimal places.) .5575 (b) Find a 99% confidence interval for p. (Round your answers to two decimal places.) lower limit upper limit Give a brief interpretation of the meaning of the confidence interval you have found. We are 99% confident that the true proportion of judges who are introverts falls outside this interval. We are 1% confident that the true proportion of judges who are introverts falls above this interval. We are 99% confident that the true proportion of judges who are introverts falls within this interval. We are 1% confident that the true proportion of judges who are introverts falls within this interval. (c) Do you think the conditions np > 5 and nq > 5 are satisfied in this problem? Explain why this would be an important consideration. No, the conditions are not satisfied. This is important because it allows us to say that p̂ is approximately normal. Yes, the conditions are satisfied. This is important because it allows us to say that p̂ is approximately normal. Yes, the conditions are satisfied. This is important because it allows us to say that p̂ is approximately binomial. No, the conditions are not satisfied.

Silvah Leasing Ltd. (SLL) is a private company founded over 20 years ago. Its main business is providing lease financing to small to medium-size local businesses for financing their operating equipment, store fixtures, and so on.

SLL’s business is direct lease financing, and the company never takes ownership of any of the leased assets. Leasing is popular with smaller businesses since the economy has been in a recession, and leasing assets rather than buying conserves cash. Many larger financial institutions have become more active in selling leases to the smaller customers that have been

SSL’s main source of business, to increase their own revenues during the recessionary times. Equipment vendors are also increasingly providing financing with equipment sales to increase their own business.

D. Silvah owns the majority of the common shares and runs the business with three employees. There are two minority shareholders who are family members, M. Silvah and J. Silvah. Your firm has audited SLL for several years. The company’s bank demands annual audited financial statements because of SLL’s large outstanding bank loan.

Dihybirds involve the inheritance of two traits, two pairs of alleles.

In humans, brown eye color (B) is dominant to blue eyes color (b) and dark hair color (D) is dominant to blond hair color (d).

1. What is the genotype of a person heterozygous for both traits?

2. What are the possible genotypes of a blue-eye, dark haired individual?

3. What are the possible genotypes of a blue-eye, dark haired individual?

4. What is the genotype of a blue-eyed blond?

5. For an individual who is heterozygous for both traits, what would be the genotypes for the FOUR possible gametes they can produce?

Construct a Punnett square for two parents who are heterozygous for both traits: BbDd x BbDd to do this, place the possible gametes of each parent on the left side and top side, above column and row, and fill in the boxes with the offspring genotypes.
