Fun Inc. has a corporate fun day every year (except this one) which features an obstacle course where contestants race from point to point picking up difficult to hold objects and try to get to the finish line first. The average time it takes to run between the course pickup points is 2.15 minutes with a standard deviation of .85 minutes. The course is carefully setup so that each pick up point averages 25 yards from the last pickup point, but there is a standard deviation of 2 yards. The correlation between race time and pickup distance = .746 What is the independent variable? number of pickup points O distance either time, distance, or number of pickup points O time

Jared has a mean of 74 on his quizzes, with a standard deviation of 7. On his most recent quiz, he scored a 65. Is this unusual compared to how he usually performs on quizzes?
If we collected data on how many pets each person in our class has, describe a situation that the standard deviation would be 0. Jo thinks that the only way for this to happen is for everyone to have no pets. Explain to Jo why the answer they have is correct, but not the only way.
Please help me understand the problem. Is the given standard deviations 6, and 7? I know I need to use the unit normal table, and shade the curve. But how? Thanks.
How does a nonzero constant number c change a standard deviation problem?
Jack's clothing sells on average, 25 shirts per week, sometimes a little more, sometimes a little less but typically a deviation of about 3. The cost per jacket is $65. Because Jack's is located in a sketchy part of town their insurance on inventory is 33% on all goods. The good news is free shipping to customers although UPS charges Jack's $8.50 for every delivery. It takes 2 weeks from the time jackets are ordered until they are received. Jack's supplier has said they only ship by pallet, and each pallet contains 75 jackets. If the reorder point is 50 what is the average flow time?
Please answer B, C, & D.
Neil scored 67 on his calculus class final and was devastated by his failing grade. His class distribution had a mean of 54 and a standard deviation of 7. Greg was quite proud of his score of 88 for his Spanish language class. His class distribution had a mean of 97 with a standard deviation of 6. Who did better relative to their class?
A study compares students who use a website and students who do not use the website. In addition to asking the students in the samples about GPA, each student was also asked how many hours he or she spent studying each day. The two samples (141 students who were users of the website and 68 students who were not users of the website) were independently selected from students at a large, public university. Although the samples were not selected at random, they were selected to be representative of the two populations. n USE SALT For the sample of users of the website, the mean number of hours studied per day was 1.46 hours and the standard deviation was 0.83 hours. For the sample of students who do not use the website, the mean was 2.77 hours and the standard deviation was 0.99 hours. Do these sample data provide convincing evidence that the mean time spent studying for users of the website at this university is less than the mean time spent studying by students at the university who do…
