Case Study: United States Congress in Ch. 3, p. 167 of the 6th edition of the textbook, Elementary Statistics Picturing the World. (Ron Larson and Betsy Farber) Please read the case study and address questions 1, 2, 3, 4, 6 in the paper. The length of the report should be 3 pages, including a reference page and will be important to fully explore and discuss a topic. The Case Study should be written as a report you would submit to your employer if you were requested to do the analysis in the textbook and create a report. It should NOT read like a homework assignment with numbered questions (or references to questions in the textbook). The reader should be able to understand your analysis without having access to the textbook. • Include the biblical/ethical approach to the topic of the case study including any relevant scriptural reference. • The report should be typed, double-spaced, front side only, in Times New Roman 12- point font. • Students must follow APA format for proper grammar, spelling, sentence/paragraph structure, and footnote or endnote structure. All cases are to be written in the third person as a professional paper. • If sources are used, a reference page is required. • Titles for each section may be used if the student desires. • The assignments reference specific questions that should be answered on the topic. The answers do not have to be in the same order as in the textbook but should be logically organized. C A S E STUl United States Congress Congress is made up of the House of Representatives and the Senate. Members of the House of Representatives serve two-year terms and represent a district in a state. The number of representatives each state has is determined by population. States with larger populations have more representatives than states with smaller populations. The total number of representatives is set by law at 435 members. Members of the Senate serve six-year terms and represent a state. Each state has 2 senators, for a total of 100. The tables show the makeup of the 113th Congress by gender and political party as of March 4, 2013. There are three vacant seats in the House of Representatives.
