You are planning to purchase a house that will require some renovations.
1. You will have a $400,000 mortgage for 20 years at the rate of 4.25%. What will your monthly payment be?

C | 400 |
D | 600 |
E | 150 |
F | 550 |
G | 300 |
H | 540 |
I | 425 |
K | 700 |
Answer the following questions based on this data. Be sure to show all of your work for each question.
1. What was the mean walking time for the group in January 2022? If your answer is a decimal round to the nearest hundredth.
2. By what percent did YOU exceed or fall below the mean in January 2022? Express your answer rounded to the nearest hundredth.
3. What was the median walking time in January 2022?
Part 3
Here is data for a statistics class:
Final Grade | Women | Men |
A | 6 | 5 |
B | 7 | 8 |
C | 4 | 3 |
D | 2 | 1 |
F | 0 | 1 |
Answer the following questions based on the above data for the math class. Be sure to show all of your work for each question.
1. If one person is randomly chosen to participate in a focus group, what is the probability that the person will be a student who earned an A in the class?
2. A group of 6 students from this class is going to be randomly chosen to test a new video. In how many ways can the 6 students be chosen?
3. What is the probability that the random choice of the 6 students ( from b. above) will result in a group of all women being chosen?
Part 4
For this part, you will find it helpful to use a Venn diagram. You may submit a Venn diagram or thoroughly explain how you reached each answer.
