1.   A researcher conducted a survey on a university campus for a sample of 64 seniors. The research reported that seniors read an average of 3.12 books in the prior academic semester, with a standard deviation of 2.15 books. Determine the probability that the sample mean is:
   a) above 3.45
   b) between 3.38 and 3.58
   c) below 2.94
2.   Al Gore, the Democratic candidate for President of the USA in the 2000 election, believes that the proportion of voters who will vote for a Democrat candidate in the year 2004 presidential elections is 0.65. A sample of 500 voters is selected at random.
a.   Assume that Gore is correct and p = 0.65. What is the sampling distribution of the sample proportion ? Explain.
b.   Find the expected value and the standard deviation of the sample proportion .
c.   What is the probability that the number of voters in the sample who will vote for a Democrat presidential candidate in 2004 will be between 340 and 350?
3.   A random sample of 10 waitresses in Iowa City, Iowa revealed the following hourly earnings (including tips):

$19   18   15   16   18   17   16   18   20   14

If the hourly earnings are normally distributed with a standard deviation of $4.5, estimate with 95% confidence the mean hourly earnings for all waitresses in Iowa City.
4.   The number of cars sold annually by used car salespeople is normally distributed with a standard deviation of 15.
