A box contains 100 marbles, some of which are red and the rest blue. A sample of 10 marbles is taken randomly (with replacement) from the box and the statistic: number of red marbles in the sample is calculated. The probability model for this statistic is shown below. (Note: the probabilities should add to 1 - any difference from 1 is due to round-off errors.)
values probability

0 0.6047

a. Roughly, what is the shape of the probability model? Write the shape in a complete sentence
b. Calculate the center (mean) of the probability model. Use R as a calculator to calculate the mean. Write the mean in a complete sentence
c. Argue that 1.5 is a good guess for the standard deviation of the probability model. Write a brief answer
d. Suppose you repeat the experiment of sampling 10 randomly with replacement n times. Each time, you calculate the number of red marbles in your sample. Suppose you were to make a plot of the running means of the results, what would happen as n increases?

Design an er diagram for keeping track of information about votes taken in the u. s. house of representatives during the current two-year congressional session. the database needs to keep track of each u. s. state's name (e. g., texas', new york', california') and include the region of the state (whose domain is {northeast', midwest', southeast', southwest', west'}). each congress person in the house of representatives is described by his or her name, plus the district represented, the start date when the congressperson was first elected, and the political party to which he or she belongs (whose domain is {republican', democrat', 'independent', other'}). the database keeps track of each bill (i. e., proposed law), including the bill name, the date of vote on the bill, whether the bill passed or failed (whose domain is {yes', no'}), and the sponsor (the congressperson(s) who sponsored - that is, proposed - the bill). the database also keeps track of how each congressperson voted on each bill (domain of vote attribute is {yes', no', abstain', absent'}). additional information:
