brandon conducted a research to determine the preference of students during online classes. From the 250 students who participated in the study, 85 wanted to have synchronous classes, 90 wanted to have asynchronous classes, and 100 wanted to have blended learning. From the respondents, it was seen that 35 preferred either synchronous and asynchronous, 10 preferred synchronous and blended learning, 25 preferred blended learning and asynchronous, and exactly 55 liked two of the mode of learning.
1. How many students liked synchronous, asynchronous, and blended learning? 2. How many students liked synchronous learning, but did not preferred asynchronous or blended learning? 3. How many students did not like either of the three modes of learning? 4. Draw the initial and final Venn diagram.
The UCLA Graduate Student Association can use an instant runoff or a Bordacount method (but not both) when there are three or more candidates for office. The currentElection Board has up to 16 voters. Suppose three candidates are up for the Office of OfficialAwesomeness (Hey, give me a break - this is the last question!) Iris (I), Orchid (O), and Violet(V).(a) How many different preferences are possible?

Is the result significantly different from what would be expected if there were no preference between the two faces.arrow_forward
- It appears that some people judge candidates for elected office by their faces. Psychologists showed head-and-shoulders photos of the two main candidates in 32 races for the U.S. Senate to many subjects (dropping subjects who recognized one of the candidates) to see which candidate was rated "more competent" based on nothing but the photos. On election day, the candidates whose faces looked more competent won 22 of the 32 contests. If faces do not influence voting, half of all races, in the long run, should be won by the candidate with the better face. Is there evidence that the proportion of times the candidate with the better face wins is more than 50%? What is the numerical value of the sample proportion p? (Use decimal notation.
