According to the CAN-SPAM Act,  

Questions regarding transformative use were an issue in a copyright lawsuit between the Associated Press and street artist Shephard Fairey. In April 2006, freelance photographer Mannie Garcia (working for the AP) took a picture of then Sen. Barack Obama at the National Press Club. Using the photo as a starting point, Fairey created the now-famous red, white and blue HOPE poster that became popular during the presidential campaign. AP claimed copyright infringement and said the use of the photo required permission. The fair use issues were never played out in court because the case settled. Going through the four points in the Fair Use Doctrine, make an argument about whether this was fair use.  Show a full understanding. This is worth 5 points.      

What two rights does the U.S. Constitution attempt to balance in regards to intellectual property?

10. For amplification, a BJT must operate in:

2. The triode region of a MOSFET is mainly used for:

To study the effect of a new additive on frosting shelf life, the Publicks baker randomly assigned each of 150 small batches of frosting to one of three additive levels: none, some, and lots (50 batches were assigned to each treatment group).  She then measured their shelf life (in days) by tasting them each morning until every batch had soured.  The respective p-values for Hartley’s F-max and Bartlett’s tests were 0.479 and 0.522.

In a recent survey, 185 of 220 ACME University students favored installing a bronze statue of Bugs Bunny. Regardless of whether you believe the assumptions are adequately met, run the right-tailed, normal approximation hypothesis test: Ha: p > .75.  What is the p-value?  Hint: this is the one-proportion-z-test from your calculator.

3. The saturation region of a MOSFET is preferred for:

To study the effect of a new additive on frosting shelf life, the Publicks baker randomly assigned each of 150 small batches of frosting to one of three additive levels: none, some, and lots (50 batches were assigned to each treatment group).  She then measured their shelf life (in days) by tasting them each morning until every batch had soured.  The Anderson-Darling and Shapiro-Wilks p-values for testing the normality of the residuals are 0.23445 and 0.2928, respectively.  Based on these, is the normality requirement of the residuals reasonably met?
