In 2006–2007, the Canadian in-hospital preterm birth (prematurity, that is, birth before 37 weeks of gestation) and SGA (small for their gestational age) rates were approximately 8.1% and 8.3%, respectively. A survey of 500 randomly selected Canadian in-hospital births is conducted. a) What is the approximate probability that at most 50 of these births will be declared SGA?
b) What is the probability that more than 10% of the sampled births will be termed preterm?

1. an economy consists of three workers: larry, moe, and curly. each works 10 hours a day and can produce two services: mowing lawns and washing cars. in an hour, larry can either mow one lawn or wash one car; moe can either mow one lawn or wash two cars; and curly can either mow two lawns or wash one car. a. calculate how much of each service is produced under the following circumstances: a. all three spend all their time mowing lawns. b. all three spend all their time washing cars. c. all three spend half their time on each activity d. larry spends half of his time on each activity, while moe only washes cars and curly only mows lawns b. using your answers to part a, draw a production possibilities frontier and label points a, b, c, and d on your graph. explain why the production possibilities frontier has the shape it does. c. are any of the allocations calculated in part a inefficient? explain.
