Phil has systematically contributed $3000 to his RRSP at the beginning of every three months for the past 17 years.If the RRSP has earned 8.8% compounded quarterly, what is the value of Phil’s RRSP today? (Do not round intermediate calculations and round your final answer to 2 decimal places.)The value of the RRSP today $

The U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics reports that 11.3% of U.S. workers belong to unions (BLS website, January 2014). Suppose a sample of 400 U.S. workers is collected in 2014 to determine whether union efforts to organize have increased union membership.
a. Formulate the hypotheses that can be used to determine whether union membership increased in 2014.H 0: p H a: p
b. If the sample results show that 52 of the workers belonged to unions, what is the p-value for your hypothesis test (to 4 decimals)?

The density function of the Gamma distribution with parameters and k is given by where -1 e -x/0 (x) = = г(k) Øk if x > 0, and otherwise, г(k) = √ ₁ k-1-x dx x' e is the gamma function. (a) For every k ≥ 1, 0 > 0, find the mode of the density. Hint: The algebra can be simplified by appropriate use of logarithms. ~ Now suppose that X1,..., Xn id Exp(\) and that we have a prior belief in A which is consistent with a prior distribution X. Gamma(a, b), for some a, ß, i.e. the prior density of is Baxa-1-BA T(a) e = so 01/ẞ and k = a.
