TOURISTOPIA TRAVEL
TourisTopia Travel (Triple T) is an online travel agency that specializes in trips to exotic locations around the world for groups of ten or more travelers. Triple T’s marketing manager has been working on a major revision of the homepage of Triple T’s website. The content for the homepage has been selected and the only remaining decisions involve the selection of the background color (white, green, or pink) and the type of font (Arial, Calibri, or Tahoma).
Triple T’s IT group has designed prototype homepages featuring every combination of these background colors and fonts, and it has implemented computer code that will randomly direct each Triple T website visitor to one of these prototype homepages. For three weeks, the prototype homepage to which each visitor was directed and the amount of time in seconds spent at Triple T’s website during each visit were recorded. Ten visitors to each of the prototype homepages were then selected randomly; the complete data set for these visitors is available in the DATAfile named TourisTopia.
Triple T wants to use these data to determine if the time spent by visitors to Triple T’s website differs by background color or font. It would also like to know if the time spent by visitors to the Triple T website differs by different combinations of background color and font.
Managerial Report
Prepare a managerial report that addresses the following issues.
- 1. Use
descriptive statistics to summarize the data from Triple T’s study. Based on descriptive statistics, what are your preliminary conclusions about whether the time spent by visitors to the Triple T website differs by background color or font? What are your preliminary conclusions about whether time spent by visitors to the Triple T website differs by different combinations of background color and font? - 2. Has Triple T used an observational study or a controlled experiment? Explain.
- 3. Use the data from Triple T’s study to test the hypothesis that the time spent by visitors to the Triple T website is equal for the three background colors. Include both factors and their interaction in the ANOVA model, and use α = .05.
- 4. Use the data from Triple T’s study to test the hypothesis that the time spent by visitors to the Triple T website is equal for the three fonts. Include both factors and their interaction in the ANOVA model, and use α = .05.
- 5. Use the data from Triple T’s study to test the hypothesis that time spent by visitors to the Triple T website is equal for the nine combinations of background color and font. Include both factors and their interaction in the ANOVA model, and use α = .05.
- 6. Do the results of your analysis of the data provide evidence that the time spent by visitors to the Triple T website differs by background color, font, or combination of background color and font? What is your recommendation?

- 6. See the code below and solve the following. import java.io.*; public class DataStream { } public static void main(String[] args) } DataOutputStream output = new DataOutputStream(new FileOutputStream("temp.dat")); output.writeUTF("Book1"); output.writeInt(85); output.writeUTF("Book2"); output.writeInt(125); output.writeUTF("Book3"); output.writeInt(70); output.close(); // ToDo: Read all data from temp.dat and print the data to the standard output (monitor) 6-1. This program has a compile error, and the message is “Unhandled exception type FileNotFoundException". How do you fix this error? (1 point) 6-2. Is FileNotFoundException a checked exception or an unchecked exception? (1 point) 6-3. What is the difference between checked exception and unchecked exception? (1 point) 6-4. Please complete the above program by reading all data from temp.dat and print the data to the standard output (monitor) by using System.out.print, System.out.println or System.out.printf method. (2 points)arrow_forwardWrite a program that reads a list of integers from input and determines if the list is a palindrome (values are identical from first to last and last to first). The input begins with an integer indicating the length of the list that follows. Assume the list will contain a maximum of 20 integers. Output "yes" if the list is a palindrome and "no" otherwise. The output ends with a newline. Hints: - use a for loop to populate the array based on the specified size (the first number entered) - use a for loop to check first value with last value, second value with second from end, etc. - if the values do not match, set a Boolean variable to flag which statement to output (yes or no) Ex: If the input is (remember to include spaces between the numbers): 6 1 5 9 9 5 1 the output is: yes Ex: If the input is: 5 1 2 3 4 5 the output is: C++ codingarrow_forwardDesign and draw a high-level "as-is" process diagram that illustrates a current process related to a product or service offered through the SSDCI.gov database.arrow_forward
