Cairo Cab, Inc., uses two dispatchers to handle requests for service and to dispatch the cabs. The telephone calls that are made to Cairo Cab use a common telephone number. When both dispatchers are busy, the caller hears a busy signal; no waiting is allowed. Callers who receive a busy signal can call back later or callanother cab service. Assume that the arrival of calls follows a Poisson probability distribution, with a mean of 35 calls per hour, and that each dispatcher can handle a mean of 23 calls per hour.a. What percentage of time are both dispatchers idle b. What percentage of time are both dispatchers busy?c. What is the probability that callers will receive a busy signal if three dispatchers are used d. What is the probability that callers will receive a busy signal if four dispatchers are used?e. If management wants no more than 12% of the callers to receive a busy signal, how many dispatchers should be used?
In a memory test, the test subjects are given a large number and are asked to memorize it. Historical records show that 80% of test subjects pass the test. To pass the test, a subject must exactly repeat all the digits in the number after two hours. A random sample of 625 people to take the memory test is going to be chosen. Let p be the proportion of people in the sample who pass the test. Answer the following. (If necessary, consult a list of formulas.) (a) Find the mean of P. 0 (b) Find the standard deviation of p. 0 (c) Compute an approximation for P(P >0.84), which is the probability that more than 84% of the people in the sample pass the test.

A gym wishes to evaluate the effectiveness of its programs. When a new member joins the gym, they meet with a trainer who designs a recommended routine based on the member’s current fitness and their goals. The recommended routines can be classified into high, medium, or low effort. Historically, 68% of the new members get a high effort routine, 21% get a medium effort routine, and the rest get a low effort routine. After the first six months as members, the gym surveys the members’ adherence to the recommended routine. The gym classifies a member’s performance as optimal if they follow the recommended routine for the six months, or as inferior otherwise. According to the historical results of the survey, 84% of the members with a low effort routine, 22% of the members with a medium effort routine, and 69% of the members with a high effort routine report optimal performance. After the first six months of joining the gym, a member can obtain different results: they can either…
You may need to use the appropriate technology to answer this question. The Consumer Reports Restaurant Customer Satisfaction Survey is based upon 148,599 visits to full-service restaurant chains.† One of the variables in the study is meal price, the average amount paid per person for dinner and drinks, minus the tip. Suppose a reporter for a local newspaper thought that it would be of interest to her readers to conduct a similar study for restaurants located in her city. The reporter selected a sample of 8 seafood restaurants, 8 Italian restaurants, and 8 steakhouses. The following data show the meal prices ($) obtained for the 24 restaurants sampled. Italian Seafood Steakhouse $13 $15 $24 14 19 18 16 18 22 17 25 24 17 22 21 19 16 23 16 18 26 32 11 34 Use ? = 0.05 to test whether there is a significant difference among the mean meal price for the three types of restaurants.

THE MANAGER OF A SERVICE STATION IS IN THE PROCESS OF ANALYZING THE NUMBER OF TIMES CAR OWNERS CHANGE THE OIL IN THEIR CARS. SHE BELIEVES THAT THE AVERAGE MOTORIST CHANGES HIS OR HER CAR'S OIL LESS FREQUENTLY THAN RECOMMENDED BY THE OWNER'S MANUAL (TWO TIMES PER YEAR). IN A PRELIMINARY SURVEY SHE ASKED 14 CAR OWNERS HOW MANY TIMES THEY CHANGED THEIR CARS' OIL IN THE LAST 12 MONTHS. THE RESULTS ARE 1, 1, 2, 0, 3, 3,0, 1, 0, 1, 2, 3, 3, AND 1. 2.1 Does this data provide sufficient evidence at the 10% significance level to indicate that the manager is correct? 2.2 Ho: H₁: Rejection region: Test statistic: Decision: Conclusion: What condition is required in order to analyze this data using a t-test?
Question 7
A researcher is interested in the affects that a person’s avatar (i.e. visual representation of oneself) has on the number of profile views on Facebook.com. The average number of individual personal profile views is known to be 230 views per day (excluding bands, artists, etc.). The researcher creates 36 fictitious profiles that contain roughly the same information but the picture (avatar) is an animated .gif of a smiling face (36 faces randomly selected from a compilation of faces judged to be of average attractiveness). The results showed that of the 36 profiles the average number of views was 250 with a standard deviation of 60. Test the hypothesis that the average number of views for a smiling face gif is significantly different than the usual number of personal profile views.

In a series of studies, Sebastian Deri and his colleagues (2017) asked multiple groups about the number of friend groups they had and how often they attended different social events. They then asked participants how they thought their own numbers compared to other people's: Did participants see themselves as less social, the same as, or more social than others? In the first study, the researchers reported that: "Three hundred four participants from Amazon's Mechanical Turk (150 women; Mage = 37.1; 78% White, 10% Black, and 6% Asian) completed a survey in exchange for modest payment" (p. 860). What do the researchers mean by "Amazon's Mechanical Turk" with respect to their sample of participants? O A. An archival data set that already exists and from which researchers can use data O B. An online tool that researchers can use to recruit people to participate in research in exchange for a small payment O C. An e-book sold by Amazon that includes contact information for possible…
