1. A statistics professor posted 10 review problems on probability distributions: 4 problems were on discrete distributions and 6 on continuous distributions. He then announced to his students that he will randomly select 3 problems out of those posted problems and use them on the midterm exam.

1. Prof. Ronald Coase's seminal 1960 paper asks us to imagine the following scenario. A farmer and a cattle rancher are operating on neighboring properties. Inevitably, some of the rancher's cattle manage to stray onto the farmer's plot, damaging the crops and rendering them worthless. Now, consider the following numerical example: Suppose the cost to build a fence between the two properties that is strong enough to keep the cattle penned in is $10,000. The cattle rancher earns a profit...

1. When applying the Integral Test, it is not entirely correct to say that the value of the integral tells us nothing about the value of the infinite sum. We can use an improper integral to find upper and lower bounds for the value of the sum. That is, if f is a continuous, positive, decreasing function on [1, oo), and f(n) an, then a) Use pictures (and words) to show why these inequalities are true. (Hints: Do one inequality...

As John starts across the street, he exerts a 58 N forward force on the wagon. There is a 20 N resistance force (friction) and the wagon and Casey have a combined weight of 302 N.
