Sketch the asymptotes of the Bode plot magnitude and phase for the transfer functions:
1. T(s) = 2000/(s(s+200))
2. T(s) = 100/(s(.1s+1)(.5s+1))
3. T(s) = 1/(s(s+1)(.02s+1))

It is known that smoking is also a risk factor for lung cancer and other diseases. Studies have shown that the death rate per 100,000 for lung cancer is 7 among non-smokers and 71 among smokers. The death rate per 100,000 for coronary thrombosis is 422 among non-smokers and 599 among smokers. The prevalence of smoking in the population is 55%.
What is the attributable risk of dying of lung cancer for smokers versus non-smokers?
What is the interpretation of the attributable risk?

A Thai restaurant wants to know whether more people order pad thai on working days than on non-working days. A sample of 58 working days showed that the average number of orders of pad thai was 350, with an SD of 22. A sample of 62 non-working days showed the average number of orders of pad thai was 355 with an SD of 29. Is the average number of orders of pad thai on the non-working days larger than on the working days? Find the p-value.

We are comparing the mean prices of fiction and non-fiction
books.
We sampled 60 fiction books, and got a sample mean of $39 and a
sample standard deviation 16.
We sampled 50 non-fiction books, and got a sample mean of $36 and a
sample standard deviation 13.
Does the data provide sufficient evidence to conclude that fiction
books cost more on average than non-fiction books?
P-value =
(yes/no)= , because we= ,H0 , and the conclusion is=
