please use Poisson Processes to answer the below question :
Q. Voters arrive at a polling booth in a remote Queensland town at an average rate of 30
per hour. There are two candidates contesting the election and the town is divided. Candidate
A is far more popular, and is known that any voter will vote for her with probability 0.85.
(a) The electoral officer arrived exactly 6 minutes late to open the booth, and one voter was
waiting outside. What is the probability that the voter had been waiting for more than 5
minutes? You may assume that they did not arrive before the polling booth was meant to
open.
(b) Due to social distancing measures, voters that arrive within a minute of another voter must
wait outside. What is the probability that, when you turn up to vote, you need to wait
outside?
(c) What is the expected number of votes that Candidate A will receive during the 8 hour
voting period?
(d) By the time the election has closed, exactly 8 hours after it started, exactly 238 voters had
cast their vote and Candidate A had won 198 votes to 40. Use a normal approximation
to compute the probability that the candidate A had received enough votes to win in the
first 4 hours of the election. Ensure you validate the assumptions required to use a normal
approximation and apply a continuity correction.

The accompanying sketch is that of a closed-end manometer. Describe how the gas pressure is measured. Why is a measurement of not necessary when using this manometer? Explain why the closed-end manometer is more suitable for measuring low pressures and the open-end manometer more suitable for measuring pressures nearer atmospheric pressure.

The reason we use the word favorable and unfavorable when evaluating variances is made clear when we look at the closing of accounts. To see this, consider that (1) all variance accounts are closed at the end of each period (temporary accounts), (2) a favorable variance is always a credit balance, and (3) an unfavorable variance is always a debit balance. Write a half page memo to our instructor with three parts that answer the fallowing three requirements. (Assume that variance accounts are closed to Cost of Goods Sold.)
Required -
1. Does COGS increase or decrease when closing a favorable variance? Does gross margin increase or decrease when favorable variance is closed to COGS? Explain.
2. Does COGS increase or decrease when closing an unfavorable variance? Does gross margin increase or decrease when favorable variance is closed to COGS? Explain.
3. Explain the meaning of favorable and unfavorable variance.

On December 31, 2020, Pina Colada Corp. estimated that 4% of its
net accounts receivable of $455,200 will become uncollectible. The
company recorded this amount as an addition to Allowance for
Doubtful Accounts. The allowance account had a zero balance before
adjustment on December 31, 2020. On May 11, 2021, Pina Colada Corp.
determined that the Jeff Shoemaker account was uncollectible and
wrote off $2,276. On June 12, 2021, Shoemaker paid the amount
previously written off.
Prepare the journal entries on December 31, 2020, May 11, 2021, and
June 12, 2021. (Credit account titles are automatically
indented when amount is entered. Do not indent manually. Record
journal entries in the order presented in the

A group of researchers was trying to evaluate the influence of exercise on humans pulse rate. Two measurements were made to understand the effect of exercise to pulse rates, one at the beginning (Baseline) and one at the end of 2 months of routine excersise
Baseline Pulses: 72 76 70 69 74
After Exercise: 68 73 66 65 70
Find the 95% confidence interval estimate for the average reduction in pulse rate. The differences in pulse rates before and after exercise are assumed normally distributed. And, at 5% level of significance, test to see if the difference in pulse rates before and after exercise is statistically significant.

State the hypotheses, state the test statistic, state the P-value, make an decision, and state a conclusion.
A sample of five third graders took a reading test. They then went on their winter break, and took the test again when they returned. Following are the test scores for each of the students before and after the winter break. Can you conclude that the mean reading score was lower after the winter break? Use ? = 0.05. Assume the populations are normally distributed.
| 1 | 2 | 3 | 4 | 5 | |
| Before Winter Break | 67 | 68 | 78 | 75 | 84 |
| After Winter Break | 66 | 65 | 79 | 74 | 82 |
