The story’s central event is the death of Ted Lavender, which the story returns to again and again. Why do you think the story revisits this event so often? Do you think this repetition honors Lavender or trivializes his death? Explain your answer.

The chance that a U.S. police chief believes the death penalty "significantly reduces the number of homicides" is 1 in 4. If a random sample of 8 police chiefs is selected, find the probability that at most 3 acknowledge that the death penalty significantly reduces the number of homicides.

Coroners estimate the time of death using the rule of thumb that a body cools about $2^{\circ} \mathrm{F}$ during the first hour after death and about $1^{\circ} \mathrm{F}$ for each additional hour. Assuming an air temperature of $68^{\circ} \mathrm{F}$ and a living body temperature of $98.6^{\circ} \mathrm{F}$, the temperature $T(t)$ in ${ }^{\circ} \mathrm{F}$ of a body at a time $t$ hours since death is given by

$$T(t)=68+30.6 e^{-k t} .$$

$\bull$ Using the value of $k$ found in part (a), show that, 24 hours after death, the coroner's rule of thumb gives approximately the same temperature as the formula.
