(1 point) Using diaries for many weeks, a study on the lifestyles of visually impaired students was conducted. The
students kept track of many lifestyle variables including how many hours of sleep obtained on a typical day.
Researchers found that visually impaired students averaged 9.2 hours of sleep, with a standard deviation of 2.24
hours. Assume that the number of hours of sleep for these visually impaired students is normally distributed.
(a) What is the probability that a visually impaired student gets less than 6.4 hours of sleep?
answer:
(b) What is the probability that a visually impaired student gets between 6.2 and 8.84 hours of sleep?
answer:
(c) Thirty percent of students get less than how many hours of sleep on a typical day?
answer:
hours

Problem 7-09 (Algorithmic)
Hawkins Manufacturing Company produces connecting rods for 4- and 6-cylinder automobile engines using the same production line. The cost required to set up the production line to produce the 4-cylinder connecting rods is $1,400, and the cost required to set up the production line for
the 6-cylinder connecting rods is $3,100. Manufacturing costs are $15 for each 4-cylinder connecting rod and $18 for each 6-cylinder connecting rod. Hawkins makes a decision at the end of each week as to which product will be manufactured the following week. If a production
changeover is necessary from one week to the next, the weekend is used to reconfigure the production line. Once the line has been set up, the weekly production capacities are 6,500 6-cylinder connecting rods and 8,200 4-cylinder connecting rods.
Let
X4 = the number of 4-cylinder connecting rods produced next week
X6 = the number of 6-cylinder connecting rods produced next week

Question 2
Mr. Ferdinand is a well known entrepreneur who sells fresh organic beef to persons in the local
community. Customers love the quality of meet that Mr. Ferdinand sells so they tend to
recommend his product to other persons. Recently, Mr. Ferdinand has been rumning out of beef
to sell to his customers. One customer suggests to him that he must use past sales records to
forecast demand for his beef so that he can meet his customers demand.
Using a numerical example, demonstrate to Mr. Ferdinand how he can use a three-
week and a four-week weighted moving average to forecast demand for his beef.
I.
II.
Show how Mr. Ferdinand can test the accuracy of his forecast.
III.
Explain to Mr. Ferdinand two ways in which he can benefit from doing forecast for
his beef.

Are my formulas correct and did I get the correct answer?
Question: Sunblessed Juice Company sells bags of oranges and cartons of orange juice. Sunblessed grades oranges on a scale of 1 (poor) to 10 (excellent). At present, Sunblessed has 220,000 pounds of grade 6 oranges and 150,000 pounds of grade 9 oranges on hand. The aver- age quality of oranges sold in bags must be at least 7, and the average quality of the oranges used to produce orange juice must be at least 8. Each pound of oranges that is used for juice yields a revenue of $2.25 and in- curs a variable cost (consisting of labor costs, variable overhead costs, inventory costs, and so on) of $1.35. Each pound of oranges sold in bags yields a revenue of $2.00 and incurs a variable cost of $1.20.
a. Determine how Sunblessed can maximize its profit.

Q1: Pat Jones is the general manager at Denny’s Muffler, which has 3 locations and 27 employees. Currently, the office manager at 3 stores put input their weekly sales results into a spreadsheet and e-mail that spreadsheet to Pat on Friday by noon. Each week, Pat handles between 120 to 350 records of sales data, and another 100 to 300 records of customer data. Pat would be like to keep track of weekly sales, which customers are associated with each sale, the parts used for each sale, what work was done for each customer at each sale, and which parts were used for each sale. If Pat wants to improve his efficiency and effectiveness, which of the following applications would be the best for collecting and storing Pat’s data? 1) Excel 2) SAP3) Access4) Minitab5) Teams6) MySQL
