12. A new type of flu vaccine is being developed that manufactures the vaccine in a cell culture rather than in chicken eggs. A clinical trial of 3,900 randomly selected participants was performed. Each participant was given the new type of flu vaccine. Out of the 3,900 participants given this vaccine, 26 had the flu in the following 28 weeks. Is this evidence that the population proportion that would get the flu after receiving this vaccine is different from 0.01? The test statistic is -2.09. What is the p-value? a.) 0.00006 b.) 0.0183 c.) 0.0228 d.) 0.0366 e.) 0.0732

3) An Angus bull, Edgar, has a weaning weight EPD of +72. The average weaning weight for the population of beef cattle is 565 lbs. a) If Edgar is mated to a cow with an EPD of +30, what do you expect the weaning weight of the calf (or average of the calves) to be (assume the average environmental effect is 0)? b) A cow, Vivian, has a weaning weight EPD of +14. What do you expect the weaning weight of Vivian and Edgar’s calf will be (assume the average environmental effect is 0)? c) A second bull, Frank, has a weaning weight EBV of +112. Frank is mated to a cow with an EBV of +46. What do you expect the weaning weight of the calf (or average of the calves) to be (assume the average environmental effect is 0)?

NEED TO BE WRITTEN IN C++!!! 4. Write a function in your favorite language that simulates trials of the Monty Hall Three-Door problem Your function should take two arguments: a bool indicating whether or not the contestant should switch doors when given the opportunity, and an integer N specifying the number of trials to run. You can then estimate the probability of success of a particular strategy (switching or not switching) by dividing the number of trials in which the contestant won the car by the total number of trials. Turn in a print-out of your code as well as a print-out of the results of the following experiments: (a) strategy: switch every time, for N = 100,1000,10000, and 100000 trials (b) strategy: never switch, for N = 100,1000,10000, and 100000 trials
