During a typical May in St. Louis, it rains once every 2.6 days. Using the exponential distribution, calculate the probability that no rain falls during the first week (7 days) in the month of May. (Hint: You can also think of this as the probability that the first rainy day happens after a week.) You may use any of these values, if you think it would be helpful: 

Suppose you roll this weighted die twice. What is the probability that you roll either a 4 on the first roll or a 6 on the second roll?

Use this set-up for Problems 53-56: A Quinnipiac poll performed on January 28-February 1, 2021 asked Americans, “Are you willing to get a COVID-19 vaccine, or not?” 30% of respondents said they were not. You wonder whether this proportion has changed in the past few years, so you conduct a poll of 100 Americans and ask the same question. 25 people in your sample were unwilling to get the COVID-19 vaccine. Suppose you set . What hypotheses should you set-up to determine if the percentage has changed since the initial poll?
