According to the American Management Association, most U.S. companies now test at least some employees and job applicants for drug use. The U.S. National Institute on Drug Abuse claims that about 15% of people in the 18-25 age bracket use illegal drugs. Allyn Clark, a 21 year-old college graduate, applied for a job at the Acton Paper Company, took a drug test, and was not offered a job. He suspected that he might have failed the drug test, even though he does not use drugs. In checking with the company's personnel department, he found that the drug test has 99% sensitivity, which means that only 1% of drug users incorrectly test negative. Also, the test has 98% specificity, meaning that only 2% of nonusers are incorrectly identified as drug users. Allyn felt relieved by these figures because he believed that they reflected a very reliable test that usually provides good results. But is this really true? The accompanying table shows data for Allyn and 1,499 other job applicants. Based…
AMS communicates with customers who subscribe to cable television services through a special secured email system that sends messages about service changes, new features, and billing information to in-home digital set-top boxes for later display. To enhance customer service, the operations department established the business objective of reducing the amount of time to fully update each subscriber’s set of messages. The department selected two candidate messaging systems and conducted an experiment in which 30 andomly chosen cable subscribers were assigned one of the two systems (15 assigned to each system). Update times were measured, and the results are organized in Table AMS10.1.

You are the marketing director for a company that manufactures bodybuilding supplements and you are planning to run ads in Sports Illustrated and GQ Magazine. Based on readership data, you estimate that each one-page ad in Sports Illustrated will be read by 670,000 people in your target group, while each one-page ad in GQ will be read by 170,000. You would like your ads to be read by at least 3 million people in the target group and, to ensure the broadest possible audience, you would like to place at least three full-page ads in each magazine. Draw the feasible region that shows how many pages you can purchase in each magazine. (Let x be the number of full-page ads in Sports Illustrated and let y be the number of full-page ads in GQ Magazine.) Find the corner points of the region. (Round each coordinate to the nearest whole number. If an answer does not exist, enter DNE.) smaller x-value(x, y) = larger x-value(x, y) =
How will marketers change their social media use in the near future? A survey by Social Media Examiner reported that 77% of B2B marketers (marketers that focus primarily on attracting businesses) plan to increase their use of LinkedIn, as compared to 54% of B2C marketers (marketers that primarily target consumers).

Kentville, a community of 10,000 people, resides next to a krypton mine, and there is a concern that the emission from the krypton smelter have resulted in adverse effects. Specifically, Kryptonosis seems to have killed 12 of Kentville’s inhabitants last year. A neighboring community, Lanesburg, has 25,000 inhabitants and is far enough from the smelter to not be affected by the emission. In Lanesburg, only three people last year died of Kryptonosis. Given that the number of deaths in Kentville and their causes last year were: Heart attack=7 Accidents=4 Kryptonosis=12 Other=6 What is the risk of dying of Kryptonosis in Kentville relative to non-contaminated locality?What is the risk of dying of Kryptonosis in Kentville relative to deaths due to other causes? How many times the chance of dying of Kryptonosis compared to dying of accidents ? How many times the chance of dying of Kryptonosis compared to Other causes?
Dave Fletcher, the general manager of North Carolina Engineering Corporation (NCEC), thinks that his firm’s engineer-ing services contracted to highway construction firms are directly related to the volume of highway construction business contractedwith companies in his geographic area. He wonders if this is reallyso, and if it is, can this information help him plan his operationsbetter by forecasting the quantity of his engineering servicesrequired by construction firms in each quarter of the year? Thefollowing table presents the sales of his services and total amountsof contracts for highway construction over the past eight quarters: a) Using this data, develop a regression equation for predictingthe level of demand of NCEC’s services. b) Determine the coefficient of correlation and the standard errorof the estimate.

A Gallup survey showed that in March 2011 , 8 of every 25 employers in the United States were adding more workers to their workforce, 9 of 50 were reducing their workforce, and 1 of 2 were keeping it the same. In a metropolitan area there are 1250 employers and of those who will hire, they will hire an average of seven new employees. If the employers who were cutting their workforce in that area were planning on letting go an average of nine workers, what would the net change in jobs for the area be? This metropolitan area would see a ▼net decrease or increase of jobs.
