Lori Cook produces “Final Exam Care Packages” for resale by her sorority. She is currently working a total of 5 hours per day to produce 100 care packages.
a) What is Lori’s productivity?
b) Lori thinks that by redesigning the package, she can increase her total productivity to 133
care packages per day. What will be her new productivity?
c) What will be the percentage increase in productivity if Lori makes the change?

Asmall (but heavy) particle placed in a glass of water will follow a zigzag motion because the particle will bounce off of the water molecules it meets. this is called brownian motion. a physicist simulates this on a computer, by varying the distance a particle can travel (called the mean free length), on average, before it collides with a water molecule and assigning the change in motion to be one of 8 directions, each with a similar probability. by running the simulated particle (with the same mean free length) many times she determines that it should take 15 seconds, on average, for the particle to fall to the bottom, with a standard deviation of 1.5 seconds. next she lets a real particle fall through a glass of water and finds that it took 18 seconds. what does she conclude, and why?

Each of the walls of a room with square dimensions has been built with two pieces of sheetrock, a smaller one and a larger one. the length of all the smaller ones is the same and is stored in the variable small. similarly, the length of all the larger ones is the same and is stored in the variable large. write a single expression whose value is the total area of this room. do not use any method invocations.

There is a spinner with 14 equal areas, numbered 1 through 14. if the spinner is spun one time, what is the probability that the result is a multiple of 2 or a multiple of 5?
