Summary Which statements belong in the summary? Check all that apply. In the 2000s, specialized mortgage brokers were allowed to originate mortgage loans. Earlier mortgage loan originators were Savings & Loan associations (S&Ls) or banks. Mortgage payments based on short-term interest rates—called adjustable-rate mortgages (ARMs)—were preferred by subprime borrowers. Securitizing companies, such as Merrill Lynch, Bear Stearns, and Lehman Brothers, were making money on the volumes of mortgage pools that they were securitizing. This encouraged originators to issue more mortgages and increase the total value of the mortgages. Mortgages were accessible for borrowers who did not meet income and minimum down payment requirements. Moreover, the Fed kept interest rates really low to prevent a recession. This led to a decrease in the demand for homes and a further decline in housing prices.

‘A Tale of Two Students It is a retelling by a lecturer teaching in the area of social justice: Robbie asked me why he needed to take social justice seriously as he was neither female nor gay nor was he from an ethnic or lower income group. He acknowledged that he might develop a disability as he was active in sports and could therefore sustain an injury, so he stated that issues pertaining to physical disability might be of relevance to him. Robbie said that he had never been on the receiving end of discrimination and did not understand the issue in a ‘real life’ sense. He stated that he was “training to be a teacher not a social worker”. Gina felt strongly that she “treated all her pupils the same” and therefore did not exclude or discriminate against anyone. She felt that discrimination would not take place in her class because she was sensitive and inclusive and would not tolerate prejudice or prejudicial views. However, she believed that most pupils developed prejudiced ideas either from the home or in the community and that the problem lay with society rather than within a school. She accepted that it was important for teachers to be aware of these problems but did not feel the need for teachers to go “over the top”.

Question Four 3 Drink Water, a water drilling company engaged by USAID Zambia to sink boreholes in Nampundwe District, has indicated that an exploratory water well drilled in a particular area should strike water with a probability of 0.46. i. Identify the operational probability distribution. [1 Mark] ii. Find the probability that the third non-dry borehole sank comes on the fifth well drilled. [3 Marks] iii. Calculate the mean and variance of the distribution. [3 Marks] b. The data comes from Zambia's health survey conducted in 2018 by the Zambia Statistical Agency. The sample consisted of around 14,048 individuals representative of the Zambian population as a whole. The variables have the following interpretations: Page 3 of 15 - sleep: minutes spent sleeping during the previous 24 hours - gender: a dummy variable equal to 1 if the person is male - educ: the number of completed years of education up to a maximum of 12 - higheduc: a dummy variable equal to 1 if the person has post-secondary education - age: age in years - age2: the square of age You are a new statistician trying to estimate the determinants of sleep times.
