All outbound packages from a distribution center are routed to a person for packing. 60% of packages are easy and can be packed at a rate of 45 packages per hour. The remaining packages are more difficult and can only be packed at a rate of 12 packages per hour. There is no specialization, packages are randomly assigned to any available packer. What is the average packing rate for each packer?

A researcher hypothesized that cytokinins and auxins supplied by tumor-inducing insects lead to the production of tumors in plants. She performed experiments in which she hypodermically injected green pepper plants to determine if she could induce tumors. In one experiment she varied the concentration of cytokinin and the ratio of auxin concentration to cytokinin concentration. She used 3 concentrations of cytokinin and 6 ratios of auxin/cytokinin. The concentrations are indexed (1-3) with 3 indicating the highest concentration of cytokinin. The 6 ratios of auxin/cytokinin varied from 0.125 to 5.0 with values greater than 1 indicating that auxin was in greater concentration than cytokinin. The resulting data are in the date file "auxcyt.csv". The measured sizes of the tumors induced (relative to controls) are given in the 3rd column ('sumdiffd'). Analyze these data testing the appropriate hypotheses and interpret the results. (Note the unequal sample sizes.) auxcyt data…

A busy grocery store in San Antonio captures the time per item it takes to check out customers during their peak time. (The total time for the customer was divided by the number of items for that customer. If a customer took 8 minutes, or 480 seconds, to check out and purchased 24 items, the time would be 20). A sample of times is calculated for each cashier. They want to compare 2 cashiers. The following are the average time per item scanned in seconds for each cashier: Cashier 1 Cashier 2 Time per Item Scanned Time per Item Scanned 20 24 10 16 52 19 60 55 65 45 58 36 40 5 38 29 40 52 25 45 35 15 40 19 35 28 27 28 15 30 16 28 18 19 Compare the following (a through k) for these two cashiers and then help the store determine which of the two cashiers has better metrics (explain why): Cashier 1 Cashier 2 a.
