(05.01 LC)  A polling company has decided to increase the size of its random sample of voters from about 2,000 people to about 4,500 people right before an election. A poll was designed to estimate the proportion of voters who favor a new law to set an 11 p.m. curfew for teenagers. What is the effect of this increase? (4 points)

You are considering a beam design that has dimensions of b = 18 in., h = 22 in., and d = 19.5 in. The beam is singly reinforced with all of the reinforcement in a single row. The concrete strength is 10,000 psi, and the yield strength of the reinforcement is 60,000 psi. What cross-sectional area of reinforcement is needed to achieve a strain in the reinforcement of 0.0075?

A beam is singly reinforced with the reinforcement in two rows. The bottom row contains 8 No. 7 bars at a depth of 18 in. The top row contains 5 No. 7 bars at a depth of 13 in. Determine the effective (centroidal) depth, d, of the steel.

A beam has dimensions of b = 14 in., h = 26 in., d’ = 2.5 in., and d = 23.5 in. It is reinforced with 2 No. 5 bars on the compression side and 5 No. 8 bars on the tension side. The concrete strength is 3,700 psi, and the yield strength of the reinforcement is 60,000 psi. If the depth of the neutral axis is c = 5.588 in., determine the force in the compression reinforcement, Cs.

The most important exam technique to assess for hypertrophic cardiomyopathy is:

(04.06 MC)  The grades on the last science exam had a mean of 89%. Assume the population of grades on history exams is known to be distributed Normally, with a standard deviation of 14%. Approximately what percent of students earn a score between 75% and 89%? (4 points)

(05.05 MC)  Potassium helps the human body prevent muscle cramping. Researchers sampled 52 random professional wrestlers. The average potassium level was 3.8 millimoles per liter and the standard deviation was 1.4 millimoles per liter. Construct and interpret a 95% confidence interval to estimate the mean potassium level in the population. (5 points)

A beam has dimensions of b = 20 in., h = 10 in., and d = 7.5 in. and is reinforced with 4 No. 9 bars. The concrete strength is 3,800 psi, and the yield strength of the reinforcement is 60,000 psi. If the depth of the neutral axis is c = 4.371 in., does the reinforcement yield?

(05.01 MC) Mateo is roasting a chicken. He must make sure the chicken has a minimum internal temperature of 165 degrees so that it is safe to eat. Using a thermometer, he takes the temperature of the chicken in three random places. The minimum temperature in the sample is 172 degrees. Identify the population and the sample. (4 points)

(04.06 MC)  The mean household income for a certain state is $69,000 with a standard deviation of $10,000. Assuming a Normal distribution, about 95 percent of all households have an income over what amount? (4 points)
