Suppose a group of volunteers is planning on building a park near a local lake. The lake is known to contain low levels of arsenic (As). Therefore, prior to starting construction, the group decides to measure the current level of arsenic in the lake.
a) If a 15.7 cm3 sample of lake water is found to have 164.5 ng As, what is the concentration of arsenic in the sample in parts per billion (ppb), assuming that the density of the lake water is 1.00 g/cm3?
One of the volunteers suggests hiring an on-site water treatment company to remove the arsenic from the lake. The company claims their process takes 2.74 days to remove 41.90 kg of As from a water source.
b) Calculate the total mass (in kg) of arsenic in the lake that the company will have to remove if the total volume of water in the lake is 0.710 km3?
c) Based on the company\'s claim and the concentration of arsenic in the lake, how many years will it take to remove all of the arsenic from the lake, assuming that there are always 365 days in a year?

The manager of an amusement park would like to be able to
predict daily attendance in order to develop more accurate plans
about how much food to order and how many ride operators to hire.
After some consideration, he decided that the following three
factors are critical:
Yesterday’s attendance
Weekday or weekend (1 if weekend, 0 if weekday)
Predicted weather
Rain forecast ( 1 if forecast for rain, 0 if not)
Sun ( 1 if mostly sunny, 0 if not)
He then took a random sample of 40 days. For each day, he recorded
the attendance, the previous day’s attendance, day of the week, and
weather forecast. An example of the first few lines of Data and the
regression output are below:

Test to see if the model is valid. Use alpha = .05
Can we conclude that weather is a factor in determining
attendance?
If the manager is looking for a way to help predict attendance, Is
this a good model to use? How would you suggest making this model
better?
please give proper details for the answer. Thank you

After some consideration, he decided that the following three factors are critical: Yesterday’s attendance Weekday or weekend Predicted weather He then took a random sample of 36 days. For each day, he recorded the attendance, the previous day’s attendance, day of the week, and weather forecast(mostly sunny, rain, cloudy). The first independent variable is interval, but the other two are nominal. a. Create the three indicator variables you need. b. Conduct a regression analysis. c. Is this model valid? Explain. d. Can we conclude that weather is a factor in determining attendance? e. Do these results provide sufficient evidence that weekend attendance is, on average, larger than weekday attendance? f. Do these results provide sufficient evidence that mostly sunny attendance is, on average, larger than cloudy attendance?

The purpose of this homework is to test your knowledge of GUI. Consider a fictional park where the entry price for 1 adult ticket is $50, and for 1 children ticket is $25. Write a simple GUI application that let user to enter the number of tickets and display the total price. The GUI should contain:
● One text field for the user to enter the number of adult tickets
● One text field for the user to enter the number of children tickets
● One button “Calculate total cost”
● One text field to display the total cost When the user clicks the button then the correct cost is displayed in the total price field. If the input text field is empty then it should be treated as 0 tickets.

In this problem, assume that the distribution of differences is approximately normal. Note: For degrees of freedom d.f. not in the Student's t table, use the closest d.f. that is smaller. In some situations, this choice of d.f. may increase the P-value by a small amount and therefore produce a slightly more "conservative" answer. Suppose that at five weather stations on Trail Ridge Road in Rocky Mountain National Park, the peak wind gusts (in miles per hour) for January and April are recorded below. Wilderness District 1 2 3 4 5 January 140 123 123 64 78 April 102 111 104 88 61 Does this information indicate that the peak wind gusts are higher in January than in April? Use α = 0.01. Solve the problem using the critical region method of testing. (Let d = January − April. Round your answers to three decimal places.) test statistic = critical value = Interpret your conclusion in the context of the application. Reject the null hypothesis, there is sufficient evidence to claim average peak wind gusts are higher in January. Fail to reject the null hypothesis, there is sufficient evidence to claim average peak wind gusts are higher in January. Reject the null hypothesis, there is insufficient evidence to claim average peak wind gusts are higher in January. Fail to reject the null hypothesis, there is insufficient evidence to claim average peak wind gusts are higher in January. Compare your conclusion with the conclusion obtained by using the P-value method. Are they the same? We reject the null hypothesis using the critical region method, but fail to reject using the P-value method. The conclusions obtained by using both methods are the same. We reject the null hypothesis using the P-value method, but fail to reject using the critical region method.
