a survey company, sws, claims that a majority of gen z voters prefer leni robredo as the next president over that of its main competitor, bongbong marcos. to test this claim 500 randomly selected people were surveyed. among them, 270 leni, 211 bbm, and 1919 could not make up their minds. determine whether there is sufficient evidence, at the 5% level of significance, to support the sws survey claim against the default that the population is evenly split in its preference. Show your calculations.
At a recent chess tournament, all 15 of the participants had to fill out a form that gave their names, address and age. The ages of the participants were recorded as follows: 36, 48, 54, 92, 57, 63, 66, 76, 66, 80, 82, 65, 39, 77, and 45. Use the data to construct a frequency table and histogram with 3 classes.

The city of a population of 161,565 has requested to evaluate its solids waste collection system.
Determine:
i) mean time per collection stop plus the mean time to reach the next stop,
ii) number of pickup locations per load
iii) minimum number of trucks the city must own.
Consider the following data:
a) Average truck capacity =18 m3
b) Average observed compaction ratio =3.28
c) Crew size = 2 persons
d) Number of pickups = 1/week (no rear-of-house service)
e) Average number of residence per stop= 2.5
f) Average uncompact density = 122 kg/m3
g) Average transport time to disposal site including delay and dumping = 1.5 h/trip
h) Average number of trips to disposal site =2/day
i) Rest breaks = 2 at 15 min
j) Average maintenance downtime = 36 min/day
k) Average work day = 8 hours
l) Average percentage of truck out of service for majority repairs = 15%
m) Average number of cans per stop = 2.5/wk at 0.0911 m3/can
