Diesel generators are used by a manufacturing plant for emergency needs. It is known that one- generator fails for every one-hundred generator demanded. If on average there are 12 demands each year, what is the probability that there is at least one failure for the generator each year? What distribution did you use?

If during the following year it is predicted that each comedy skit will generate 30 thousand and each musical number 20 thousand, find the maximum income for the year. A television program director must schedule comedy skits and musical numbers for prime-time variety shows. Each comedy skit requires 2 hours of rehearsal time, costs 3000, and brings in 20,000 from the shows sponsors. Each musical number requires 1 hour of rehearsal time, costs 6000, and generates 12,000. If 250 hours are available for rehearsal and 600,000 is budgeted for comedy and music, how many segments of each type should be produced to maximize income? Find the maximum income.
Ajax has established a new sandwich shop format for airports and train stations.Here, the sandwitches are only made from a specially made,long,individual loaf of bread.But the innovations is that the sandwiches are not made ahead in large batches.Intead,a few of each variety of sandwich are made at a time,in the shop,with the result being a better ability to exactly match supply to demand. If prior to this change the shop has roughly 5 percent leftovers of one-half of the sandwich varieties each day,but could have sold 10 percent more of the two best sellers that day,what are the potential benefits of the new format if the store sells 12 different sandwiches each with an average demand of 20 per day?
An analyst in the real estate business is interested in the relationship between the cost of the monthly rent of an apartment and the size of an apartment, in big cities. She gathers data for apartment buildings in 12 cities in 12 different states. In each city, she gets the numbers for at least 5 different buildings and at least 40 apartments in each building. She reaches the following conclusion: the rental cost of a 2-bedroom apartment is 50% more than the rental cost of a 1-bedroom apartment, and the rental cost of a 3-bedroom apartment is 50% more than the rental cost of a 2-bedroom apartment. Based on the paragraph, what is the minimum number of apartments she collected data on? Do you think her sample was large enough to be statistically valid? Based on the paragraph, are there any apartments or apartment buildings that she would have excluded from her study? Do you see any bias in how she selected apartments for her study? Based on the paragraph, is there a positive…

It is your responsibility, as the new head of the automotive section of Nichols Department Store, to ensure that reorder quantities for the various items have been correctly established. You decide to test one item and choose Michelin tires, XW size 185 × 14 BSW. A perpetual inventory system has been used, so you examine this as well as other records and come up with the following data: Cost per tire Holding cost Demand $35 each 20 percent of tire cost per year 1,000 per year $20 per order Ordering cost Standard deviation of daily demand Delivery lead time 3 tires 4 days Because customers generally do not wait for tires but go elsewhere, you decide on a service probability of 98 percent. Assume the demand occurs 365 days per year. a. Determine the order quantity. (Round your answer to the nearest whole number.) Order quantity tires b. Determine the reorder point. (Use Excel's NORMSINV() function to find the z value. Do not round intermediate calculations. Round z value to 2 decimal…

Dr. Lillian Fok, a New Orleans psychologist, specializes in treating patients who are agoraphobic (i.e., afraid to leave their homes). The following table indicates how many patients Dr. Fok has seen each year for the past 10 years. It also indicates what the robbery rate was in New Orleans during the same year: Year Number of Patients Robbery Rate per 1,000 Population 1 2 3 4 37 32 40 41 58.0 61.1 73.4 75.2 5 42 81.1 6 7 8 56 58 54 89.5 101.5 95.4 ŷ=0+0× where y = Dependent Variable and x = Independent Variable. 9 57 104.1 10 60 115.6 The simple linear regression equation that shows the best relationship between the number of patients and year is (round your responses to three decimal places):
