Textbook Question
Chapter 1.III, Problem 28RE
You have just purchased a 65-acre ranch for a price of $780 per acre. In addition, the house was valued at $125,000 and the equipment amounted to $22,300.
a. What was the total price of your purchase?
b. Since the owner was anxious to sell, he offered to finance the ranch for you with a no-interest mortgage loan. What would your monthly payments be to pay off the loan in 10 years?
c. Besides the mortgage payment, you are required to make monthly property tax and insurance payments. If property tax is $3,000 per year and insurance is $2,400 per year, how much would these items add to your monthly expenses for the ranch?

(b) In various places in this module, data on the silver content of coins
minted in the reign of the twelfth-century Byzantine king Manuel I
Comnenus have been considered. The full dataset is in the Minitab file
coins.mwx. The dataset includes, among others, the values of the
silver content of nine coins from the first coinage (variable Coin1) and
seven from the fourth coinage (variable Coin4) which was produced a
number of years later. (For the purposes of this question, you can
ignore the variables Coin2 and Coin3.) In particular, in Activity 8 and
Exercise 2 of Computer Book B, it was argued that the silver contents
in both the first and the fourth coinages can be assumed to be normally
distributed. The question of interest is whether there were differences in
the silver content of coins minted early and late in Manuel’s reign. You
are about to investigate this question using a two-sample t-interval.
(i) Using Minitab, find either the sample standard deviations of the
two variables…
