How much time per week do students spend on their assignments and review at home? A random sample of 36 USC (University of Southern California) students indicates that the mean time spent on studying at home is equal to 15.3 hours per week, with a population standard deviation equals to 3.8 hours. 1) Form a 95% CI estimate for the population mean time spent on studying at home. 2) What sample size is needed to be 90 % confident of being within only one third of the margin of error in 1).

A group of students estimated the length of one minute without reference to a watch or clock, and the times (seconds) are listed below. Use a 0.01 significance level to test the claim that these times are from a population with a mean equal to 60 seconds.

Design a lesson plan for your school (or workplace) that teaches students (or employees) about different cultures. At a minimum, include the following categories in your lesson plan: Objectives, Procedures, Reading Assignments, Materials, and Assessment. In addition, attach an assessment that you will use to determine if the students (or employees) learned from your lesson. There is a lesson plan template you may use located in course resources. Your lesson plan must be entirely original. Please provide title page, citations, and reference page for this assignment.

Creating a Database Design
Lab 1: Creating a Database Design (Wk 3) - OR - Draw with pencil and paper diagram (take photo of it and submit) along with a summary of the diagram you prepared in a Word document.
Use the scenario from Assignment 1: Business Rules and Data Models to complete the lab:
Suppose a local college has tasked you to develop a database that will keep track of students and the courses that they have taken. In addition to tracking the students and courses, the client wants the database to keep track of the instructors teaching each of the courses.

Statistics students believe that the mean score on a first
statistics test is 65. The instructor thinks that the mean score is
higher. She samples 10 statistics students and obtains the
scores:
| Grades | 73.5 | 68.4 | 65 | 65 | 63.9 | 68.4 | 64.3 | 66.5 | 61.9 | 69 |
|---|
Test grades are believed to be normally distributed.
Use a significance level of 5%.
