Andi and Budi will meet. Suppose A is an event where Andi arrives late, and B is an event where Budi arrives late, with P (A) = 0.1 and P (B) = 0.3. What is the chance the two of them will meet on time if

a. Genesis A and B are independent (independent)?
b. P (B | A) = 0.5?
c. P (B | A) = 0.1?

What is the overall efficiency for the removal with the fabric filter for a distribution of particles where 0.05% of the particles are of 0.1 microns diameter, 0.2% of particles are of 0.3 microns diameter, 2.8% of the particles are 0.7 microns and remaining particles are in the particle diameter range of 1 to 50 microns.

Lab 1: The Forces of Evolution

There are four mechanisms that can lead to evolutionary change from one generation to the next: mutation, natural selection, gene flow, and genetic drift. In this laboratory exercise we will examine the action of genetic drift and natural selection. The key difference between these two mechanisms, which can be difficult to get a handle on without direct experimentation, is that natural selection privileges some individuals over others on the basis of their biological traits while genetic drift privileges some individuals over others with no regard to their biological traits.

Data Table for Genetic Drift Experiment

Data Table for Natural Selection Experiment

Using the data, answer the questions on the other side of this sheet.

Questions

1. Compare the results from the genetic drift experiments to the natural selection experiments. Are there any clear differences in the results? If so, what is the reason for the differences?

2. In cases where one of the colors of beetle was eliminated, how could the allele for this color re-enter the population? Which forces of evolution would be required?

3. From these experiments, how might genetic drift and natural selection affect natural populations of organisms differently? If the population of beetles was 20,000 instead of 20 (and 10,000 survived each generation) how would this influence the effects of genetic drift vs. natural selection?

4. Is the outcome of genetic drift or natural selection more predictable? How might these different mechanisms of evolutionary change relate to functional traits of organisms?

The drive-up window at a local bank is searching for ways to improve service. One of the tellers has decided to keep a control chart for the service time in minutes for the first four customers driving up to her window each hour for a three-day period. The results for her data collection appear below:

Using Minitab:

1. Construct the X-bar and R charts?
2. Estimate the standard deviation for the time to service a customer at the drive-up window?
3. Determine whether there are any indications of a lack of control?
4. If the upper specification of the time to service is 6 minutes and the lower specification is 2.5 minutes, using the process parameters estimated from the control charts generate by Minitab the six pack capability analysis?

if it's possible i need the minitab file or link for it

Project 10-1 Convert lengths In this assignment, you’ll add code to a form that converts the value the user enters based on the selected conversion type. The application should handle the following conversions:

From To Conversion

Miles - Kilometers: 1 mile = 1.6093 kilometers

Kilometers - Miles: 1 kilometer = 0.6214 miles

Feet - Meters: 1 foot = 0.3048 meters

Meters - Feet: 1 meter = 3.2808 feet

Inches - Centimeters: 1 inch = 2.54 centimeters

Centimeters - Inches: 1 centimeter = 0.3937 inches

Feet - Yards: 1 foot = 0.333333 yards

Yards - Feet: 1 yard = 3 feet

1. Open the Conversions project. Display the code for the form, and notice the rectangular array whose rows contain the value to be displayed in the combo box, the text for the labels that identify the two text boxes, and the multiplier for the conversion as shown above.

2. Set the DropDownStyle property of the combo box so the user must select an item from the list.

3. Add the 2 additional conversion units for feet and yards to the array.

4. Add code to load the combo box (use the load event) with the first element in each row of the rectangular array a. display the first item in the combo box when the form is loaded. (I need to figure out how to grab from the array and not from a list)

5. Add code to: a. change the labels for the text boxes (When the user selects a conversion, the label for the textboxes should reflect that selection.) b. clear the calculated length c. move the focus to the entry text box when the user selects a different item from the combo box.

6. Rename the form to frmConversions.

7. Test the application to be sure the conversions are displayed in the combo box, the first conversion is selected by default, and the labels change appropriately when a different conversion is selected.

8. Add code to calculate and display the converted length when the user clicks the Calculate button. To calculate the length, you can get the index for the selected conversion and then use that index to get the multiplier from the array. Test the application to be sure this works correctly.

9. Add code to check that the user enters a valid decimal value for the length. Then, test the application one more time to be sure the validation works correctly.

Use the appropriate formula to determine the most probable speed (in miles per hour) for N2 molecules at 3.00 x 102 K. (As you do this, be sure to show your units explicitly.) Repeat the calculation for N2 molecules at 1.00 x 103 K.
