Researchers have created every possible "knockout" line in yeast. Each line has exactly one gene deleted and all the other genes present (Steinmetz et al. 2002). The growth rate—how fast the number of cells increases per hour—of each of these yeast lines has also been measured, expressed as a multiple of the growth rate of the wild type that has all the genes present. In other words, a growth rate greater than 11 means that a given knockout line grows faster than the wild type, whereas a growth rate less than 11 means it grows more slowly. The growth rate of a random sample of knockout lines is 0.86, 1.02, 1.02, 1.01, 1.02, 1, 0.99, 1.01, 0.91, 0.83, 1.01 What is the standard deviation and variance of growth rate for this sample?
In a recent survey, 72% of post-secondary graduates indicated that they expected to earn at least $6000/month by the time they were ready to retire. The survey is considered accurate within ±5.2%, 19 times in 20. If the graduating class that participated in this survey contained 2100 students, what is the lower and upper estimate of the number of students who expect to earn at least $600/month by the time they are ready to retire?

The Baytown Post Office has 4 stations for service. Customers line up in single file for service on an FIFO basis. The mean arrival rate is 32 per hour, Poison distributed, and the mean service time per server is 6 minutes, exponentially distributed. Compute the operating characteristics for this operation. Does the operation appear to be satisfactory in terms of: (a) Postal workers' (servers') idle time; (Round answer to 3 decimal places, e.g. 2.750.) (b) customer waiting time and the number waiting for service; (c) the percentage of the time a customer can walk in and get served without waiting at all?
A researcher is interested in finding out how the past average daily values of the stock prices of a firm A determine the current average daily value of its stock price. Let pt ( measured in dollars) denote the average daily value of the stock price of firm A at time t. The researcher collects data on the average daily values of the stock prices of the last quarter of 2017, i.e., t = 1,2, dots,90 and estimates the following autoregressive model with 1 lag of pt: hat(p)t = 2.48 +.05pt.1bar (R)² = 0.512, SER = 13.14. (1.13) (0.64) The standard errors are given in parentheses. Suppose that the actual average daily value of the stock price on January 2, 2018 was $506.12 and the average daily value of the stock price on December 31, 2017 was $445.12. The forecast error in the estimation of the average daily value of the stock price on January 2, 2018 will be $ (Round your answer to two decimal places.) This is all the info in the question
A statistical program is recommended. Electric power consumption is measured in kilowatt-hours (kWh). The local utility company offers an interrupt program whereby commercial customers that participate receive favorable rates but must agree to cut back consumption if the utility requests them to do so. A certain company cuts back consumption at 12:00 noon Thursday. To assess the savings, the utility must estimate the company's usage without the interrupt. The period of interrupted service was from noon to 8:00 p.m. Data on electric power consumption for the previous 72 hours are available.

In an M/MA queueing system, the arrival rate is 5 customers per hour and the service rate is 9 customers per hour. If the service process is automated (resulting in no variation in service times but the same service rate), what will be the resulting performance measurements?

Suppose a system is made up of two components that function independently. The components are connected in parallel. One of the components lifetime in days can be expressed by an exponential distribution with A = 0.1. The second component has a lifetime that can be expressed as a lognormal distribution with u = 2.3 and o = 0.1. What is the reliability of the system at 11 days? .5579 .9454 .4421 .0545
A researcher claims that a post-lunch nap decreases the amount of time it takes males to sprint 20 meters after a night with only 4 hours of sleep. The table shows the amounts of time (in seconds) it took for 10 males to sprint 20 meters after a night with only 4 hours of sleep when they did not take a post-lunch nap and when they did take a post-lunch nap. At a = 0.10, is there enough evidence to support the researcher's claim? Assume the samples are random and dependent, and the population is normally distributed. Complete parts (a) through (e) below.
