A state’s Department of education reports that 43 percent of all college students in the state are foreign students. The state university wonders if the state’s claim is valid for diversity purposes. Admission officers from the university want to ensure that a significant portion of the applicants accepted were in fact foreign students. They sampled over 6,000 recently admitted students to gain an estimate for their university.
A) The admissions officers want to estimate the true percentage of foreign students on campus to within ±5%, with 95% confidence. How many applications should they sample?
B) They actually select a random sample of 550 applications, and found that 45%were foreigners. Create the 90 percent confidence interval. Be sure to verify the conditions.
C) Interpret what 90% confidence means in this context.
D) Should the admissions officers conclude that the percentage of foreign students in the college is lower than statewide enrollment rate of 43%? Explain.

A survey at Evashevski University showed that 75% of the student body believes that the school offers classes at appropriate times during the school day. To investigate with this feeling is shared by students specifically within the business department, the department polled a sample of 100 business students; 64 said they thought that classes were offered at appropriate times during the school day.
Use an α = .10.
A. Provide the appropriate hypothesis test criteria:
|
B. Using the data from the sample, answer the five fill-in-the-blank questions, and make the correct hypothesis test conclusion.
| Reject Ho if the test statistic of | is |
|
the critical value of | ||
| Reject Ho if the p-value of | is | < | the value of α of |
Based on these results, we should:
Reject Ho
Accept Ho
C. What does this poll say about business students at Evashevski University, compared to their peers at the university as a whole?

A government report on remuneration for university
administrators in Canada lists average salaries for various
executive roles. The total annual salary for university presidents
is listed as $500,000. To test this reported figure, at LOC = 95%,
a random sample of 16 Canadian university presidents’ total annual
salaries was collected. The raw data is below (in $/year):
618,000, 464,000, 686,000, 500,000, 746,000, 704,000, 596,000,
629,000,
523,000, 756,000, 561,000, 608,000, 691,000, 663,000, 529,000,
442,000.
a) Find the mean and standard deviation using a spreadsheet.
b) Assess the government report’s claim, using the critical-value
method.
c) Use the p-value method to determine if there are any
commonly-used LOC values for which the conclusion would be opposite
to your answer from Part (a).

Consider the following set of requirements for a university
information system that is used to keep track of students’
transcripts.
R1: The university keeps track of each student's name, student
number, class, and degree program.
R2. The university consists of various departments. Each department is described by a name, department code and phone.
R3. Each course has a course number, course name, and credits.
R4. Each section has an instructor, course number, and section
number. There might be multiple sections of each course offered in
the semester.
The other requirements for this application are:
R5: An administrator can update the courses to be taught by instructors, and enter the list of students taking a course.
R6: An instructor can enter and update the grades of the course(s) taught by this instructor.
R7: A student can request a grade report from the information system.

The British national healthcare system owns many hospitals and directly employs workers. General practitioner salaries are set by the British government. The funding for healthcare services comes mostly from the government. This is significantly different from the US healthcare systems. Consider the issues with government healthcare programs in financing and administration. Address the following:
Would the US be able to transit to the British style of national healthcare? Why or why not?
In comparison to the British system and US system, what would be some of the challenges the US would face in adopting a national healthcare system? Discuss at least three challenges.

Assume the age of death for all us burials(of persons over 5 years old) is approximately normally distributed and the sample mean is 68.84 and the standard deviation is 18.402926789.
Find the age at death such that 1.5% of US burials (of persons over 5 years old) were at least that old.
Find the probability that a burial randomly selected from all US burials (of persons over 5 years old) involved a person at least 30 years old.
Find the probability that a burial randomly selected from all US burials ( of persons over 5 years old) involved a person at most 85 years old.

John is looking at several options to fund his son’s 4-year university degree. The university fees of $45,000 a year will have be paid starting 11 years from today. He is analysing an insurance plan that pays out $45,000 a year for 4 years with the first payout 11 years from today. The insurance plan has several payment options:
Option 1 Pay $60,000 today.
Option 2 Beginning 1 year from today, pay $12,000 a year for the
next 8 years.
Option 3 Beginning 1 year from today, make payments each year for
the next 8 years. The first payment is $11,000 and the amount
increases by 5% each year.
Can I have the cash flow time line for these 3 options with regards to calculating present value.
