Mandrake Falls High School is losing a lot of money through its school laboratories. Accidents and misuse of equipment by students are taking their toll on laboratory supplies. In an attempt to remedy this, Mandrake is experimenting with a weekend course in laboratory techniques. For the time being, lack of resources allow only a portion of Mandrake's lab students to take the weekend course: of the 200 students enrolled in lab classes at Mandrake, only 77 have been able to take the weekend course. Mandrake is interested in evaluating the course's effectiveness in propagating safety in the laboratories. During regular lab classes, lab instructors are recording harmful lab incidents: accidents, misuse of lab equipment, etc. The high school is looking at the data and examining two variables: laboratory performance ("involved in no incident", "involved in exactly one incident", or "involved in 2+ incidents") and status regarding lab techniques course ("took the techniques course" or…
Terrariums are self-contained ecosystems inside a closed container. A local farmer produces terrariums for sale, but must wait for the plants in the terrarium to grow before she can sell them. On average, her terrariums take 24 days before they are ready to sell. She experiments with a new soil mixture, aiming to decrease the time it takes for the terrariums to be ready. In a sample of 7 terrariums with the new soil mixture, the farmer finds that the average time before they are ready is 20 days with a standard deviation of 3 days. In testing the hypotheses H_0 :μ=24 and Ha:μ<24, what is the value of the t-test statistic? Round your answer to three decimal places. Please show work!!!
Blue Ridge Hot Tubs manufactures and sells two models of hot tubs: the Aqua-Spa and the Hydro-Lux. Howie Jones, the owner and manager of the company, needs to decide how many of each type of hot tub to produce during his next production cycle. Howie buys prefabricated fiberglass hot tub shells from a local supplier and adds the pump and tubing to the shells to create his hot tubs. (This supplier has the capacity to deliver as many hot tub shells as Howie needs.) Howie installs the same type of pump into both hot tubs. He will have only 200 pumps available during his next production cycle. From a manufacturing standpoint, the main difference between the two models of hot tubs is the amount of tubing and labor required. Each Aqua-Spa requires 9 hours of labor and 12 feet of tubing. Each Hydro-Lux requires 6 hours of labor and 16 feet of tubing. Howie expects to have 1,566 production labor hours and 2,880 feet of tubing available during the next production cycle. Howie earns a profit of…

On average, her terrariums take 30 days before they are ready to sell. She experiments with a new soil mixture, aiming to decrease the time it takes for the terrariums to be ready. In a sample of 12 terrariums with the new soil mixture, the farmer finds that the average time before they are ready is 21 days with a standard deviation of 3 days. in testing the hypotheses H0:μ= 30 and Ha:μ< 30, what is the value of the tt-test statistic?

Trans Global Tractor Trailers has decided to spend up to $2,700,000 on a fleet of new trucks, and it is considering three models: the Gigahaul, which has a capacity of 6,000 cubic feet and is priced at $60,000; the Megahaul, with a capacity of 5,000 cubic feet, priced at $50,000; and the Picohaul, with a capacity of 2,000 cubic feet, priced at $40,000. The anticipated annual revenues are $500,000 for each new truck purchased (regardless of size). Trans Global would like a total capacity of up to 234,000 cubic feet and feels that it cannot provide drivers and maintenance for more than 54 trucks.How many of each should it purchase to maximize annual revenue? (Gigahaul, Megahaul, Picohaul) = trucks What is the largest possible revenue it can make? $
Johnson Industries received a contract to develop and produce four high-intensity longdistance receiver/transmitters for cellular telephones. The i rst took 2,000 labor hours and $39,000 worth of purchased and manufactured parts; the second took 1,500 labor hours and $37,050 in parts; the third took 1,450 labor hours and $31,000 in parts; and the fourth took 1,275 labor hours and $31,492 in parts.Johnson was asked to bid on a follow-on contract for another dozen receiver/transmitter units. Ignoring any forgetting factor effects, what should Johnson estimate time and parts costs to be for the dozen units? (Hint: There are two learning curves—one for labor and one for parts.)

Garfield Company manufactures a popular brand of dog repellant known as DogGone It, which it sells in gallon-size bottles with a spray attachment. The majority of Garfield's business comes from orders placed by homeowners who are trying to keep neighborhood dogs out of their yards. Garfield's operating information for the first six months of the year follows: Month January Operating Cost Number of Bottles Sold 1,020 $ 10,710 February 1,450 15,660 March 1,740 15,900 April 2,350 19,890 3,360 27,490 3,800 34,800 May June Required: 3. Using the high-low method, calculate Garfield's total fixed operating costs and variable operating cost per bottle. 4. Perform a least-squares regression analysis on Garfield's data. 5. Determine how well this regression analysis explains the data. 6. Using the regression output, create a linear cost equation (y-a + bx) for estimating Garfield's operating costs.
The seasonal yield of olives in a Piraeus, Greece, vineyard is greatly influenced by a process of branch pruning. If olive trees are pruned every two weeks, the output is increased. The pruning process, however, requires considerably more labor than permitting the olives to grow on their own and results in a smaller size olive. It also permits olive trees to be spaced closer together. The yield of 1 barrel of olives by pruning requires 5 hours of labor and 1 acre of land. The production of a barrel of olives by the normal process requires only 2 labor hours but takes 2 acres of land. An olive grower has 240 hours of labor available and a total of 150 acres for growing. Because of the olive size difference, a barrel of olives produced on pruned trees sells for $20, whereas a barrel of regular olives has a market price of $35. The grower has determined that because of uncertain demand, no more than 40 barrels of pruned olives should be produced. Use LP to find the maximum possible…
