A factory uses three production lines to manufacture cans of a certain type. The accompanying table gives percentages of nonconforming cans, categorized by type of non-conformance for each of the three lines during a particular time period. During this time period, line 1 produced 100 non-conforming cans, line 2 produced 100 such cans, and line 3 was responsible for 300 non-conforming cans. A Quality Control person picks up a non-conforming can produced by one of the three lines. What is the probability that the can was produced by Line 1? (State your answer as a decimal accurate to three decimal places). Line 1 Line 2 Line 3 Blemish 15% 12% 20% Crack 50% 44% 40% Pull-Tab Problem 21% 28% 24% Surface Defect 10% 8% 15% Other 4% 8% 1%

A particular cookie company has a double-feature box of cookies. These boxes come with two types of cookies; oatmeal raisin and chocolate-chip. However, the proportion of cookies of each type varies. A data analyst working for the company wonders if there is a tendency for the boxes to have more of one type of cookie than the other. In order to investigate, he selects 72 boxes of the double-feature oatmeal raisin/choc-chip cookies and counts the number of each type of cookie. He finds out that, in his sample of 72 boxes, the proportion of chocolate chip cookies is 0.22. What is the standard deviation of the sampling proportion for the proportion of chocolate chip cookies? Note: 1- Round your final answer to 3 decimal places. Enter your final answer with 3 decimal places. 2-If standard deviation cannot be calculated, standard error is created in its place. Your Answer: Answer

Apperson and Fitz is a chain of clothing stores that caters to high school and college students. It publishes a quarterly catalog and operates a Web site that features provocatively attired males and females. The Web site is very expensive to maintain, and company executives are not sure whether the number of hits at the site relate to sales (i.e., people may be looking at the site’s pictures only). The Web master has accumulated the following data for hits per month and orders placed at the Web site for the past 20 months: Develop a linear regression model for these data and indicate whether there appears to be a strong relationship between Web site hits and orders. What would be the forecast for orders with 50,000 hits per month?
You are a manager for Company ABC and decide to compile data and analyze your employees’ level of satisifaction. You create a survey to ask each employee to rate their level of satisfaction working at Company ABC. Table 1 shows data of 15 people employees that responded to your survey. Each of the employees have the same job title: Sales Representative. The data set includes variables regarding an employee ID, gender, ethnicity, region, pay rate, employee satisfaction rating. Each employee was asked to rate their level of satisfaction working at Company ABC. A composite score from 0 (lowest) to 5 (highest) is shown as the data variable employee satisfaction.

According to a report by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), containers and packaging generated about 34.6% of all municipal solid waste (MSW) in the country in a recent year. This was the largest category of such waste. The next highest group was nondurable goods, which accounted for 25.4 % of waste. This was followed by durable goods at 10.9%, yard trimmings/other at 13.4%, and food scraps at 15.7%. Suppose last year, one large midwestern U.S. city processed 303 (1,000 tons) of MSW broken down by waste type as follows: Waste Type Containers and Packaging Nondurable Goods Durable Goods Yard Trimmings/Other Food Scraps MSW (1,000 tons) 129 73 28 45 28 Determine if there is a significant difference between the distribution of municipal solid waste in this midwestern city and the distribution released by the EPA a.
