In South Carolina, realtors take 5.4% of the sale price on average as part of their commission. The
average realtor commission rates in California and Virginia are 4.9% and 5.3%, respectively.
Use matrix multiplication to find the total earned by realtors from their commissions
A survey of a random sample in an amusement park showed an average expenditure of $10.30 for the evening. The average expenditure for the 20 girls in the sample was $9.70 and for the boys it was $11.10. How many boys are there in the random sample?
The Bureau of Transportation Statistics reports on-time performance for airlines at major U.S. airports. JetBlue, United, and US Airways share Terminal C at Boston’s Logan Airport. The percentage of on-time flights reported for a sample month were 76.8% for JetBlue, 71.5% for United, and 82.2% for US Airways. Assume that 30% of the flights arriving at Terminal C are JetBlue flights, 32% are United flights, and 38% US Airways flights.
Develop a joint probability table with three rows (the airlines) and two columns (on- time and late).
An announcement is made that Flight 1382 will be arriving at gate 20 of Terminal C. What is the probability that Flight 1382 will arrive on time?
What is the most likely airline for Flight 1382? What is the probability that Flight 1382 is by this airline?

The students believe that since a dime is lighter, it will have a lower proportion of times landing tails up compared to the penny. The students are instructed to spin the penny and the dime 30 times and record the number of times each lands tails up. For one student, the penny lands tails side up 18 times, and the dime lands tails side up 20 times. Let PD = the true proportion of times a dime will land tails up and pp = the true proportion of times a penny will land tails up.

- In 2010, the U.S. Congress passed the historic health care reform bill that will provide some type of coverage for the 32 million Americans currently without health care insurance. Just how widespread is the lack of medical coverage? The media claim that the segments of the population most at risk for disease and thus needing healthcare are women, children, the elderly and the poor. The following tables were generated from the U.S. Census Bureau, Current Population Survey, Annual Social and Economic Supplement (2011). Explain using supportive arguments from your analyses. Write a general summary paragraph identifying groups lacking in coverage by gender, age and income and commenting on the headline. Reference the observed numbers and percentages in your summary paragraph to see how the groups trend in identifying potentially more at-risk.
