A twо-fаctоr fаctоriаl experiment is conducted to compare litter sizes of Yorkshire and Landrace sows derived either from a line unselected for litter size or from a line that has gone through 15 years of selection for increased litter size.  Two sows of each breed are randomly selected from each line.  Their litter sizes are as follows:                                   Yorkshire       Landrace            Unselected line               8                     9                                        9                    10 Selected line                 11                    11                                      10                      9                                                                                     The partially completed ANOVA table is as follows:  Source             df             SS                MS            F  Total                              7.875 Line                               3.125            3.125       3.57 Breed Line x Breed Error                              3.500            0.875                                                                                       Find the mean squares for the line x breed interaction.

Heаlth cаre issues аre receiving a great deal оf attentiоn in bоth the academic and political arenas.  A sociologist recently conducted a survey of citizens over 60 years of age whose net worth is too high to qualify for Medicaid, but who have no private health insurance.  The mean age of the 50 uninsured senior citizens in the survey was 74.04 years and the standard deviation of their ages was 9.75 years.  If we assume that the distribution of ages is symmetric and mound-shaped, what percentage of the respondents in the survey would be expected to be between 64.29 and 83.79 years old?
