You’ve been hired as a consultant for a new planned NYC “quadrathalon”, in which participants run from Hunter’s Point South Park in Queens to Socrates Sculpture garden, take a kayak from there to Roosevelt Island, swim from there to John Jay park on Manhattan, cycle across to the Boat Basin, then swim down to a concluding party at Riverside pier 1. The organizers are worried about pollution while swimming in the two rivers. Studies have show the East River has unacceptable pollution levels a percentage of time given by p_E in the data sheet, while the Hudson river has unacceptable levels p_H of the time. Assuming these probabilities are independent answer the following:
p_E = 52 p_H = 22 p_HE = 37
You have received new information: if the East River is contaminated, the chances of the Hudson river also being contaminated goes up to p_HE (Manhattan pollutes both). Redo the questions above using this new information.

-What is the probability of having only one river contaminated? (they can move the kayak section from one river to the other).
-What is the probability of having neither river contaminated?

A singer quartet consisting of Angel, Betty, Carlos and Diana wants to practice their singing. However due to the pandemic they decide to do so at a baseball park to keep social distancing. Angel stands on the home plate, Betty goes to third base, Carlos to second base and Diana to first base. While they are getting ready a bird flies along the line joining third base and home, Betty says “That bird is singing at a frequency of 350 hertz”, but Angel says “No, it is singing at 340 hertz.” Soon after the bird leaves the park Diana sings a 440 hertz note, Carlos hears it 0.1 second later and sings a 261 hertz note.
Part a
Make a drawing of the bird’s flight path along the line joining third base and home, with an arrow indicating the direction of flight, towards home or away from home.
Part b
Explain why you chose that direction, include any equations that support your explanation.
Part c
How far is Carlos from Diana? Show your calculations.
Part d
What is the period of Carlos’ note at 261 Hertz. Include your calculations

An amusement park studied methods for decreasing the waiting time (minutes) for rides by loading and unloading riders more efficiently. Two alternative loading/unloading methods have been proposed. To account for potential differences due to the type of ride and the possible interaction between the method of loading and unloading and the type of ride, a factorial experiment was designed. Use the following data to test for any significant effect due to the loading and unloading method, the type of ride, and interaction. Use . Factor A is method of loading and unloading; Factor B is the type of ride.
| Type of Ride | |||
| Roller Coaster | Screaming Demon | Long Flume | |
| Method 1 | 48 | 53 | 51 |
| 50 | 45 | 47 | |
| Method 2 | 47 | 54 | 51 |
| 49 | 50 | 47 | |
Set up the ANOVA table (to whole number, but -value to 2 decimals and value to 1 decimal, if necessary). The p-value for Factor A is? What is your conclusion with respect to Factor A? The p-value for Factor B is? What is your conclusion with respect to Factor B? The p-value for the interaction of factors A and B is? What is your conclusion with respect to the interaction of Factors A and B? What is your recommendation to the amusement park?
