For questions 5 – 6, assume that to ride the Whirling Dervish at an amusement park, riders must be no taller than 75 in. Assume that men have normally distributed heights with a mean of 70 in. and a standard deviation of 2.8 in. 5. Find the percentage of men who will not meet the height requirement. Round to two percentage decimal places (for example, 38.29%). 6. If the height requirement is changed so that only the tallest 5% of men will be excluded from riding the Whirling Dervish due to height restrictions, what is the new height limit? Round to the nearest inch.

Suppose a group of volunteers is planning on building a park near a local lake. The lake is known to contain low levels of arsenic (As). Therefore, prior to starting construction, the group decides to measure the current level of arsenic in the lake.
a) If a 15.7 cm3 sample of lake water is found to have 164.5 ng As, what is the concentration of arsenic in the sample in parts per billion (ppb), assuming that the density of the lake water is 1.00 g/cm3?
One of the volunteers suggests hiring an on-site water treatment company to remove the arsenic from the lake. The company claims their process takes 2.74 days to remove 41.90 kg of As from a water source.
b) Calculate the total mass (in kg) of arsenic in the lake that the company will have to remove if the total volume of water in the lake is 0.710 km3?
c) Based on the company\'s claim and the concentration of arsenic in the lake, how many years will it take to remove all of the arsenic from the lake, assuming that there are always 365 days in a year?

The manager of an amusement park would like to be able to
predict daily attendance in order to develop more accurate plans
about how much food to order and how many ride operators to hire.
After some consideration, he decided that the following three
factors are critical:
Yesterday’s attendance
Weekday or weekend (1 if weekend, 0 if weekday)
Predicted weather
Rain forecast ( 1 if forecast for rain, 0 if not)
Sun ( 1 if mostly sunny, 0 if not)
He then took a random sample of 40 days. For each day, he recorded
the attendance, the previous day’s attendance, day of the week, and
weather forecast. An example of the first few lines of Data and the
regression output are below:

Test to see if the model is valid. Use alpha = .05
Can we conclude that weather is a factor in determining
attendance?
If the manager is looking for a way to help predict attendance, Is
this a good model to use? How would you suggest making this model
better?
please give proper details for the answer. Thank you

After some consideration, he decided that the following three factors are critical: Yesterday’s attendance Weekday or weekend Predicted weather He then took a random sample of 36 days. For each day, he recorded the attendance, the previous day’s attendance, day of the week, and weather forecast(mostly sunny, rain, cloudy). The first independent variable is interval, but the other two are nominal. a. Create the three indicator variables you need. b. Conduct a regression analysis. c. Is this model valid? Explain. d. Can we conclude that weather is a factor in determining attendance? e. Do these results provide sufficient evidence that weekend attendance is, on average, larger than weekday attendance? f. Do these results provide sufficient evidence that mostly sunny attendance is, on average, larger than cloudy attendance?

A man is hiking at a park. At the beginning, he followed a straight trail. From the starting point, he traveled two miles down the first trail. Then he turned to his left by 30 degree angle to follow a second trail for one point five miles. Next, he turned to his right by 160 degree angle and follow a third trail for one point seven miles. At this point he was getting very tired and would like to get back as quickly as possible, but all of the available trails seem to lead him deeper into the woods. He would like to take a shortcut directly through the woods. How far to his right should you suggest him to turn, and how far do he have to walk, to go directly back to his starting point?
Q1: The man has to turn ____ degree to the right and walk ___ miles to the starting point.
