Each person takes turns rolling two dice. If the sum is odd, the person playing odds gets points equal to the sum of the roll. If the sum is even, the person playing evens gets points equal to the sum of the roll. Note that the points earned is independent of who is rolling the dice. If Jessica is challenged to a game of Sums, which statement is accurate in every aspect in guiding her to the correct choice of choosing to play odds or evens?

In Juneau, Alaska, the 30 -year annual snowfall average is 86 point 7 inches with a standard deviation of 40 point 4 inches. The last four years saw an average annual snowfall of 115 point 7 inches, 62 point 9 inches, 168 point 5 inches, and 135 point 7 inches. Hia performs a hypothesis test on this data to determine if the next 30 -year norm will have a different average if the trend from the last four years continues. She uses a significance level of 5 percent Which of the following is a conclusion that she may make?
