For the data below perform a Wilcoxon Rank-Sum Test by-hand showing all steps (you may verify your results using software if you want to but it’s not required). Two treatments were developed for asthma patients. Twelve patients were randomly assigned to one of Treatment A or Treatment B (six patients on each treatment). The response variable is the number of days that the patients were symptom free after using their assigned treatments for a week. Test to see if Treatment A has a distribution that is shifted to the right (i.e. tends to have larger values) than Treatment B. Show all steps of your test and use 5% level of significance.
| Treatment A | 2 | 8 | 7 | 14 | 10 | 11 |
| Treatment B | 4 | 13 | 9 | 3 | 15 | 6 |

Person1, Person2, and Person3 all play on the Lacrosse Team and have an upcoming game. If none of them play in the game, their team will win by 5 points. If exactly one of person1, person2, or person3 plays, their team will win by 6 points, if exactly two of them play, their team will win by 7 points, and if all three play, their team will win by 8 points.
The probability that person1 plays is 3/10, as is the probability that person2 plays and the probability that person3 plays. The probability that person1 plays if person3 plays is 1/2. The probability that person2 plays if person3 plays is 1/3. The probability that person2 plays if person1 plays is 4/10. The probability all three play is 1/20.
Find the expected value, variance, and standard deviation of the number of points they will win by.

3. A psychologist wants to determine the effect of instructions on the time required to solve a mechanical puzzle. Each of 20 volunteers is given the same mechanical puzzle to be solved as rapidly as possible. Before the task, the subjects are randomly assigned in equal numbers to receive two different sets of instructions. One group is told that their task is difficult (M1), and the other group is told that their task is easy (M2). The score for each subject reflects the time in minutes required to solve the puzzle. Use a t-test to evaluate the null hypothesis at the .05 level of significance.

The following table shows the length of stay distribution for guests staying at a beach resort, in days. The resort management makes a net profit of $250 per day per guest during the first 2 days of the stay, and $150 per day per guest after the first 2 days. How much profit will the resort owners make in a month (assuming 30 days in a month) if there are 100 guests arriving per day? [Hint: Note that a guest who only stays for two days is billed $500; find the average profit for one guest then work out for the entire month.]
