2.4-9. Suppose that the percentage of American drivers who multitask (e.g., talk on cell phones, eat a snack, or text at the same time they are driving) is approximately 80%. In a random sample of n = 20 drivers, let X equal the number of multitaskers. (a) How is X distributed? (b) Give the values of the mean, variance, and standard deviation of X.

R3.42. Internet speed Carsten, Matt, and Rainer designed an experiment to see how different environments affect the Internet speed around campus. They used their own Mac computer and a PC belonging to the school and tested each in two different libraries, the main and the science library. Other factors included Time of Week (weekday or week- end), Time of Day (before or after 5 PM), and how busy the computer was (running other jobs or not). The measured the time it took to download a 50 Mb file from the school course management system. a) Name the factors and levels. b) How many runs will they need to run all treatment levels? c) In what order should they perform all the runs?
Question 5 Read the problem carefully and use UPS Check to solve the problem. Shaw your mathematical thinking and record your final solution. Suppose you randomly surveyed 16 "Tweens" -identified as children 8 to 12 years of age; You asked them, "How many hours did you spend on social media yesterday?" The results are as follows: (3,8,10,8,7,6,5.6,7,8,9,7,8.9,6,7). Use a graphing calculator to find the 5-number summary.
