A restaurant sells four different sizes of soft drinks: kids (12 ounces for $0.85), small ( 14 ounces for $1.35), medium (20 ounces for $1.59), and large (32 ounces for $1.85). In one day, the restaurant expects to sell 20, 35, 300 and 150 of each size, respectively. Suppose the numbers of each size sold are independent with standard deviations 10, 15, 50 and 60, respectively. Let R be the revenue from soft drink sales in one day. Find E(R) and SD(R).

A professor believes that, for the introductory art history classes at his university, the mean test score of students in the evening classes is lower than the mean test score of students in the morning classes. He collects data from a random sample of 250 students in evening classes and finds that they have a mean test score of 88.1. He knows the population standard deviation for the evening classes to be 4.2 points. A random sample of 150 students from morning classes results in a mean test score of 89.1. He knows the population standard deviation for the morning classes to be 7.7 points. Test his claim with a 95 % level of confidence. Let students in the evening classes be Population 1 and let students in the morning classes be Population 2. Step 2 of 3: Compute the value of the test statistic. Round your answer to two decimal places.
Two students, Donald and Martin, want to find out who has the higher GPA when compared to each of their schools. Donald has a GPA of 3.85, and his school has a mean GPA of 3.25 and a standard deviation of 0.4. Martin has a GPA of 3.75, and his school has a mean of 3.1 and a standard deviation of 0.5. Who has the higher GPA when compared to each of their schools?
You are considering taking two professors for a statistics course. Both professors have an average of 65%. The first professor has a standard deviation of 1%. The second professor has a standard deviation of 15%. Which professor do you have a better chance of passing with?
A professor believes that, for the introductory art history classes at his university, the mean test score of students in the evening classes is lower than the mean test score of students in the morning classes. He collects data from a random sample of 250 students in evening classes and finds that they have a mean test score of 76.8. He knows the population standard deviation for the evening classes to be 7.2 points. A random sample of 200 students from morning classes results in a mean test score of 77.8. He knows the population standard deviation for the morning classes to be 1.9 points. Test his claim with a 90% level of confidence. Let students in the evening classes be Population 1 and let students in the morning classes be Population 2. Step 1 of 3 : State the null and alternative hypotheses for the test.

You hypothesize that people in stats classes are happier than people in all other classes. You compare happiness scores in three of your classes: Statistics, Developmental Psychology, and Social Psychology. In Statistics there are 15 students and the mean happiness rating is 23.1 with a standard deviation of 9.78. In Developmental Psychology there are 15 students and the mean happiness rating is 24.4 with a standard deviation of 2.92. In Social Psychology there are 15 students with a mean rating of 17.7 and standard deviation of 8.46. The sum of squares between groups is equal to 384. The sum of squares within groups is equal to 2461. Use the One-Way ANOVA calculation table to help calculate. What is the degrees of freedom between samples?

You are interested in seeing whether emotions impact decision making. You have three groups--a happy group, a sad group, and a neutral group. For the happy group there are 5 participants and the mean risky decision making score 5.0 with a standard deviation of 0.7. For the sad group there are 5 participants and the mean risky decision making score 5.4 with a standard deviation of 1.1. For the neutral group there are 5 participants and the mean risky decision making score 5.8 with a standard deviation of 2.8. The sum of squares between samples is equal to 1.6. The sum of squares within samples is equal to 38.0. You calculated the f-ratio above. The corresponding p-value for the f-ratio you calculated is p = 0.78. Is this finding significant?
