1. Of 1,496 randomly selected UIW SPS military affiliated students, 539 are Air Force, 571 are Army, 5 are Coast Guard, 35 are Marine Corp, 183 are Navy, 162 have no branch listed, and 1 has more than one military coding. The students were then listed as preferred major according to branch of service. We have determined that around 384 Army students prefer a Bachelor of Science in Business Administration degree. UIW wants to know the population proportion of Army students who prefer a Bachelor of Science in Business Administration.

2. Health experts claim that it takes around 14 days for a person to show symptoms of COVID-19 after exposure and a standard deviation of 2 days. A survey was presented to 30 people who have been sick of COVID-19, and the mean number of days after exposure was 15 days with a standard deviation of 3 days.
