Textbook Question

Chapter 8.4, Problem 36E

CONSUMER PREFERENCES An advertisement for Brand A chicken noodle soup claims that 60 % of all consumers prefer Brand A over Brand B, the chief competitor's product. To test this claim, David Horowitz, host of The Consumer Advocate, selected ten people at random. After tasting both soups, each person was asked to state his or her preference. Assuming that the company's claim is correct, find the probability that:

a. Six or more people stated a preference for Brand A.

b. Fewer than six people stated a preference for Brand A.

Set up a free RStudio account at posit.cloud. At the start of your R session, you should enter the following commands. set.seed(1) e<-rnorm(n = 100,mean = 0,sd = 80) x<-seq(1,100,1) y<-10+15*x + e Follow the examples in the Panopto Videos to use R to obtain the values requested below.

3. (i) Using the definition of the line integral of a vector field, calculate the line integral L³ F.dy of the vector field F: R² → R² given by F(x, y) = (y, x), and where the curve & is the unit semi-circle centred at the origin, located in the upper half-plane and oriented in the anticlockwise direction. Hint. Represent the curve y as the join of two curves y = 71 + 1/2 (see Example 8.9 in the Notes). [20 Marks] (ii) Calculate the same integral using Green's Theorem. [10 Marks]
