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.

The following three games are scheduled to be played at the
World Curling Championship one morning. The values in parentheses
are the probabilities of each team winning their respective
game.
Game 1: Finland (0.2) vs. Canada (0.8)
Game 2: USA (0.3) vs. Switzerland (0.7)
Game 3: Germany (0.4) vs. Japan (0.6)
(a) The outcome of interest is the set of winners for each of the
three games. List the complete sample space of outcomes and
calculate the probability of each outcome.
(b) Let X be the number of European teams that win their respective games. Find the probability distribution of X.
(c) Find the expected value and variance of X.
(d) If two European teams win their games, what is the probability that Finland is one of them?

4. You are visiting the rainforest, but unfortunately
your insect repellent has run out. As a result, at each second, a
mosquito lands on your neck with probability 0.5. If one lands,
with probability 0.2 it bites you, and with probability 0.8 it
never bothers you, independently of other mosquitoes.
a. What is the expected time between successive mosquito bites?
What is the variance of the time between successive mosquito
bites?
b. In addition, a tick lands on your neck with probability 0.1. If
one lands, with probability 0.7 it bites you, and with probability
0.3, it never bothers you, independently of other ticks and
mosquitoes. Now, what is expected time between successive bug
bites? What is the variance of the time between successive bug
bites?

(a) If the probability that the speed is more than 108 mph is 0.8%, what is the standard deviation? (6 points) (b) Given the standard deviation in (a), what is the probability that a person drove less than 85 miles per hour? (5 points) (c) If Ben drove at a speed that exceeds 85% of all other people. What was her speed? (6 points)

Computers in some vehicles calculate various quantities related to performance. One of these is the fuel efficiency, or gas mileage, usually expressed as miles per gallon (mpg). For one vehicle equipped in this way, the miles per gallon were recorded each time the gas tank was filled, and the computer was then reset. In addition to the computer's calculations of miles per gallon, the driver also recorded the miles per gallon by dividing the miles driven by the number of gallons at each fill-up. The following data are the differences between the computer's and the driver's calculations for that random sample of 20 records. The driver wants to determine if these calculations are different. Assume that the standard deviation of a difference is σ = 3.0.
6.0 7.5 −0.6 1.5 3.7 4.5 6.0 2.2 4.8 3.0
4.4 0.3 3.0 1.1 1.1 5.0 2.1 3.7 −0.6 −4.2
(a) State the appropriate
H0 and Ha to test this suspicion.
CORRECT: H0: μ = 0 mpg; Ha: μ ≠ 0 mpg
(b) Carry out the test. Give the P-value. (Round your answer to four decimal places.)
