1. Power companies severely trim trees growing near their lines to avoid power failures due to falling limbs in storms. Applying a chemical to slow the growth of the trees is cheaper than trimming, but the chemical kills some of the trees. Suppose that one such chemical would kill 20% of sycamore trees. The power company tests the chemical on 250 sycamores. Consider this a SRS from the population of all sycamore trees. Calculate the probability that less than 24% of the tress in the sample are killed. (Hint: Shape, Center, Spread, Curve, Calculations, Conclusion....)
2. A Florida coastal community experiences a population increase during the winter months with seasonal residents arriving from northern states and Canada. The post office counter has three work stations. The service rate of each postal clerk is 0.75 customer per minute. The anticipated arrival rate is 1.2 customers per minute. Assume that customer arrivals follow a Poisson probability distribution, with an arrival and that service times follow an exponential probability distribution. Determine the following operating characteristics for the system:

Suppose the weather moves between three states 1,2,3. It stays in state 1 for an exponentially distributed number of days with mean 3, then goes to state 2. It stays in state 2 for an exponentially distributed number of days with mean 4, then goes to state 3. It stays in state 3 for an exponentially distributed number of days with mean 1, then goes to state 1. Compute the long-term probability that the weather is in state 1. Write your answer as a decimal.
