My opinion about topic, group and presentation

My opinion about topic :

This subject very interesting and useful for me. I have been wanting to study this field for a long time but due to I was busy at university and so on, I could not. When I saw this subject on the table, I was surprised and chose to read and make report for it. Such studies, which paly an important role in my life, are very important for me. in addition to studying, also occasionally work in business like buying and selling flowers online. So this study help me to understand my work as much as possible.

My opinion about group :

I think I had a very good group( Ahsan, Abdelhamid and me). As the members of group followed all the necessary rules, there was no annoyance. The most important rule is respect to each other is that we all followed. The team did things on time and we all helped each other to give a very good presentation. My opinion about presentation : The only problem we had was how we going to present online. Since this was the fist time so strange to us. Since the teacher activated all necessary voting options for us on the blackboard, all our worries were resolved and we tried our best to present the presentation.

Predict the impact of each scenario described below on the labor market. Assume the labor market is originally in equilibrium, and then each scenario happens independently. (In other words, only a) happens; then only b) happens. Do not put them all on one graph or accumulate their effects.) Draw the labor market graph originally in equilibrium. Either denote movement(s) along or shift(s) in appropriate curves. Note whether employment and wages will increase or decrease.

c.   The firm is a monopsony. The state passes a competency test on potential employees.

Hello, this is for C#. Initialize variable balance to 1000 dollars. Prompt the player to enter a wager. Check that wager is less than or equal to balance, and if it’s not, have the user reenter wager until a valid wager is entered. After a correct wager is entered, run one game of craps. If the player wins, increase balance by wager and display the new balance. If the player loses, decrease balance by wager, display the new balance, check whether balance has become zero and, if so, display the message “Sorry. You busted!”

Question 1
Seven baseballs are randomly selected from the production line to see if their stitching is straight. Over time, the company has found that 89.4% of all their baseballs have straight stitching. If exactly five of the seven have straight stitching, should the company stop the production line?
   Yes, the probability of five or less having straight stitching is unusual
   No, the probability of five or less having straight stitching is not unusual
   No, the probability of exactly five have straight stitching is not unusual
   Yes, the probability of exactly five having straight stitching is unusual
  
Question 2

A soup company puts 12 ounces of soup in each can. The company has determined that 97% of cans have the correct amount. Which of the following describes a binomial experiment that would determine the probability that a case of 36 cans has all cans that are properly filled?
   n=36, p=0.97, x=36
   n=36, p=0.97, x=1
   n=12, p=0.36, x=97
   n=12, p=0.97, x=0


Question 3

A supplier must create metal rods that are 2.3 inches width to fit into the next step of production. Can a binomial experiment be used to determine the probability that the rods are the correct width or an incorrect width?
   No, as the probability of being about right could be different for each rod selected
   Yes, all production line quality questions are answered with binomial experiments
   No, as there are three possible outcomes, rather than two possible outcomes
   Yes, as each rod measured would have two outcomes: correct or incorrect
  
Question 4

In a box of 12 pens, there is one that does not work. Employees take pens as needed. The pens are returned once employees are done with them. You are the 5th employee to take a pen. Is this a binomial experiment?
   No, binomial does not include systematic selection such as “fifth”
   No, the probability of getting the broken pen changes as there is no replacement
   Yes, you are finding the probability of exactly 5 not being broken
   Yes, with replacement, the probability of getting the one that does not work is the same
  
Question 5

Sixty-eight percent of products come off the line within product specifications. Your quality control department selects 15 products randomly from the line each hour. Looking at the binomial distribution, if fewer than how many are within specifications would require that the production line be shut down (unusual) and repaired?

   Fewer than 9
   Fewer than 11
   Fewer than 10
