After 1990, air pollution dropped in industrial countries. Did sunlight brighten? Here are data and scatterplot from Boulder, Colorado, averaging over only clear days each year. (Other locations show similar trends.) The response variable is solar radiation in watts per square meter. Year 1992 1993 1994 1995 1996 1997 1998 1999 2000 2001 2002 Sun 244 246.8 248.3 250.4 250.5 250.5 250.5 248.8 251.3 251.7 250.8 Has sunlight brightened overall? No Yes What is the best word to describe the type of relationship? Curved Linear What is the correlation between the year and sun brightness (round your answer to at least two decimal places.)

1. Find the probability that at least 9 of the hotels in the sample do not offer hairdryers in the bathrooms. (4 pts)

2. Find the probability that more than 6 but less than 14 of the hotels in the sample offered hairdryers in the bathrooms. (4 pts)

NOTE: CLEARLY SHOW YOUR SOLUTIONS FOR EACH.
