3. Consider the following problem : It is known that 25% of a planet is land and 75% of it is water. If 10 meteors are heading towards the planet, what is the probability that they all miss land and crash into the water? Design an experiment to determine this probability using a nickel and a dime. (A)

4.The probability of having three boys out of four children is to be determined. A simulation is conducted in which the experimental probability is exactly equal to the theoretical (actual) probability. If the event occurred 53 times during trials, how many trials were conducted? (T/I)

1. In a study of children with a particular disorder, parents were asked to rate their child on a variety of items related to how well their child performs different tasks. One item was "Has difficulty organizing work," rated on a five-point scale of 0 to 4 with 0 corresponding to "not at all" and 4 corresponding to "very much." The mean rating for 274 boys with the disorder was reported as 2.34 with a standard deviation of 1.07. (Round your answers to four decimal places.)

Matt W, age 10 years, has just returned from a camping trip with his scout troop. He has a runny nose and itchy eyes and is irritable. The tent was set up in a grassy field, and the boys played several games on the field. Matt’s dad takes him to the local health care center, where a diagnosis of allergy to pollen is made.

The father was anxious about the symptoms and asked for medications, what medications can help in this case, describe the mechanism of action, and any side effects or contraindications.

For the past year, you have been working as a secretary/ processor for a local construction company, XYZ Homes, which specializes in the building of low-cost, limited-option homes. You left a comfortable, good- paying job to work for XYZ because it was family- owned and operated by longtime friends.

Soon after you began working for XYZ, you noticed questionable behavior on the part of Mr. and Mrs. XYZ’s two sons, who are company salesmen. In fact, you are positive that they are falsifying documents to increase their commissions and to trick local banks into approving mortgages to customers who don’t meet credit standards.

You are trying to decide how to handle the situation when one of the sons approaches you and asks you to produce and sign a memo to a bank, falsely stating that a certain potential home buyer is credit worthy. You refuse to do so and, after much consideration, approach Mr. XYZ about the situation. To your surprise, he simply brushes off your comments as unimportant and laughingly states that “boys will be boys.”

What would you do in this situation? Is the fact that you correctly refused to produce and sign a false memo enough, or are you obligated to report these crimes to the banks and proper authorities? Discuss the options, responsibilities, and implications you are facing. ANSWER IN THREE PARAGRAPHS OR SO.

Khloe’s Boys produces and sells three models of action figures representing the athletes and celebrities Khloe Kardashian has been involved with (let’s assume there are just three). In March 2018, Lamar Odom's sales were $100,000 and its variable expenses were $58,000. French Montana's sales were $150,000 and its variable expenses were $102,000. Tristan Thompson’s sales were $250,000 and its variable expenses were $130,000. The company's fixed expenses were $96,600

a. Determine the overall break-even point for the company in sales dollars. (4 points)

b. Determine the break-even point for each of the Lamar Odom, French Montana, and Tristan Thompson in total sales dollars. Round to the nearest cent. (9 points)

c. Determine the degree of operating leverage for Khloe’s Boys. (3 points)
d. Sales for Tristan Thompson were undoubtedly high in March 2018 because he was Khloe’s current man and they had a child on the way. Unfortunately, the news that Tristan cheated on Khloe broke soon thereafter, and in April 2018, sales of the Tristan Thompson dropped dramatically. The sales of the Lamar Odom and French Montana remained fairly stable. What impact would this have on Khloe’s break even point and net income for the month of April 2018 and why? (3 points)
