The YMCA contracts with Road Maintenance Inc. to clear roads and driveways during the winter months...

The YMCA contracts with Road Maintenance Inc. to clear roads and driveways during the winter months and to do repair work during summer on its properties in Estes Park and Winter Park. Road Maintenance has been doing this work for over 10 years and has been very responsive to the YMCA’s requests. The YMCA site managers call Road Maintenance to request specific work to be done, and Road Maintenance does the work then bills the YMCA quarterly for work that’s been performed. The YMCA pays the bills within 60 days of receiving the invoices. Occasionally, Road Maintenance will donate its services to the YMCA to receive a tax write off.

While clearing off a remote access road that had recently been patched by YMCA volunteers, Road Maintenance’s plow broke when it hit an unexpected barrier. Road Maintenance bills the YMCA for repair costs to the plow, and the YMCA refuses to pay for it. Neither party can find their original contract to see who is responsible for the repair costs.

QUESTION #1: (1 point)

What tort should Road Maintenance bring against the YMCA?

QUESTION #2: (2 points)

List the elements of the tort you identified when answering Question #1 and apply them to the hypothetical.

QUESTION #3: (1 points)

What contract claim should Road Maintenance bring against the YMCA?

QUESTION #4: (2 points)

List the elements of the contract claim you identified when answering Question #3 and apply them to the hypothetical.

QUESTION #5: (4 points)

Who is most likely to win: Road Maintenance or YMCA? What will be the easiest cause of action for Road Maintenance to prove—the tort or the contract claim? The most difficult? Explain your reasoning.

Harvey is riding his bicycle, no-handed, and at a very fast speed down a park path. Trish, a jogger, accompanied by her dog, Rover on a leash is approaching Harvey from the other direction. Because he knows that he is bigger and faster on his bike, Harvey expects Trish to move out of his way. Unfortunately, Trish does not and as Harvey passes Trish, he side-swipes her knocking her to the ground and injuring her. Rover is inadvertently released when Trish falls, and he runs off into the road. Monty is driving carefully down the road. Seeing Rover running into his path and wanting to avoid hitting him, Monty swerves driving off the road and onto the sidewalk, damaging his wheel alignment when he jumps the curb. Grandma Jenkins is babysitting young Elvis, her grandson. Elvis happens to be playing hopscotch on the sidewalk across the street from the park. Fortunately, Monty's veering car stops far short of Elvis, and all is well for the tot (except for anxiety he suffered when he looked up and saw Monty's car heading straight for him). Unfortunately, Grandma Jenkins, observing the car veering off the road and heading straight toward her grandson, suffers a heart attack.

Analyze the following questions based on Negligence - (how far does Harvey's liability go? support)

Is Harvey liable for the injuries suffered by Trish and the loss of Rover? (Note: Rover is not dead, just lost) Is Harvey liable for the damage to Monty's car?

Is Harvey liable for the anxiety that Elvis suffered?

Is Harvey liable for Grandma Jenkins' heart attack?

1. For a particular scenario, we wish to test the hypothesis H0 : p = 0.48....

1. For a particular scenario, we wish to test the hypothesis H0 : p = 0.48. For a sample of size 50, the sample proportion is 0.42. Compute the value of the test statistic zobs. (Express your answer as a decimal rounded to two decimal places.)

2. Which of the following is a valid alternative hypothesis for a one-sided hypothesis test about a population proportion p?

A. p = 0.6

B. p < 0

C. p ≠ 0.7

D. p > 0.3

3. Suppose that the sample proportion is used to construct a confidence interval for the population proportion p. Assuming that the value of is fixed, which of the following combinations of confidence levels and sample sizes yield the the widest confidence interval (that is, one with the largest range of values)?

A. 95% confidence level, n = 500

B. 95% confidence level, n = 50

C. 99% confidence level, n = 50

D. 99% confidence level, n = 500

4. Which of the following statements about a confidence interval is NOT true?

A. A confidence interval of size α indicates that there is a probability of α that the parameter of interest falls inside the interval.

B. A confidence interval is generally constructed by taking a point estimate plus or minus the margin of error.

C. A confidence interval is often more informative than a point estimate because it accounts for sampling variability.

D. A confidence interval provides a range of plausible values for a parameter based on the sampling distribution of a point estimator.

5. For a test of H0 : p = p0 vs. H1 : p < p0, the value of the test statistic z obs is -0.87. What is the p-value of the hypothesis test? (Express your answer as a decimal rounded to three decimal places.)

6. A pilot survey reveals that a certain population proportion p is likely close to 0.37. For a more thorough follow-up survey, it is desired for the margin of error to be no more than 0.03 (with 95% confidence). Assuming that the data from the pilot survey are reliable, what sample size is necessary to achieve this? (Express your answer as an integer, rounded as appropriate.)​​​​​​​

7. Suppose that you are testing whether a coin is fair. The hypotheses for this test are H0: p = 0.5 and H1: p ≠ 0.5. Which of the following would be a type II error?

A. Concluding that the coin is not fair when in reality the coin is not fair.

B. Concluding that the coin is fair when in reality the coin is fair.

A) Estimate the rotational inertia of a 60-kg ice skater by considering her body to be a cylinder. Assume she's holding her arms tight to her torso, so they don't contribute significantly to her rotational inertia. Suppose that the distance from the center of rotation to the shoulders is 0.2 mm.

B) Estimate the rotational inertia if she extends her arms fully. Suppose that the arm span of the ice skater is 1.6 mm and the arms make up 15 percent of skater's mass.
