a) A county clerk wants to estimate the proportion of voters who will need special election facilities. Suppose a sample of 400 voters was taken. If 150 need special election facilities, what is the upper confidence limit (UCL) for the 90% confidence interval for the population proportion of voters who will need special election facilities. Round your answer to 3 decimal places.

b) A hotel chain wants to estimate the mean number of rooms rented daily in a given month. The population of rooms rented daily is assumed to be normally distributed for each month with a standard deviation of 240 rooms. During February, a sample of 25 days has a sample mean of 370 rooms.

What is the upper confidence limit (UCL) of the 99% confidence interval for the mean number of rooms rented daily in a given month? Round your answer to the nearest whole number.

Azzalini and Bowman (1990) analyzed the data of the waiting time (in minutes) of consecutive eruptions of the Old Faithful geyser in Yellowstone National Park. They found that the waiting times can be categorized into two groups in historical data.

-In group 1, waiting time is normally distributed with mean 54 minutes and standard deviation of 2.95.

-In group 2, the waiting time is normally distributed with mean 80 minutes and standard deviation of 7.5.

Suppose that there is a 30% chance that the waiting time is from group 1. They want to simulate the waiting time.

a) Use Excel functions only to simulate the waiting time. Your simulations should contain 500 iterations. you need only to return in one page showing your model and one page displaying the formulas in your model.

b) what is the average waiting time in your simulation?

QUESTIONS: Look at the photos below and listen to the song, "Kenji," featured on the album, The Rising Tied, by Fort Minor, a side project of Linkin Park band member, Mike Shinoda, a Japanese American whose father's family was interned at a relocation camp during World War II. Read the lyrics to "Kenji" while listening to the song, which includes samples of interviews Shinoda conducted with his father and aunt. In an interview with the Metro Silicon Valley, Shinoda said that he played the song for his family before he made it public, noting that his “…uncle, who is a very stoic Japanese guy, cried when he heard the song” (“Summer of ’42”). How do the lyrics of the song convey the negative effects of internment on the psyche of Japanese Americans? Do you think the internment of Japanese Americans during World War II was justified? Why or why not?
