A traffic report generated by the city council has determined that traffic increases or decreases (depending on the time of the day) based on the formula y =1 - 10z - 5. Meanwhile, the number of traffic tickets given at time x is y = 2x + 3. The value of of y when both graphs intersect equals the number of tickets given out. What is the largest of these values?

A restaurant located in an office building decides to adopt a new strategy for attracting customers. Every week it advertises in the city newspaper. In the 6 weeks immediately prior to the advertising campaign, the weekly grosses were 350, 320, 307, 398, 420, 335 (in million VND). In the eight weeks after the campaign began, the weekly grosses was 488, 301, 276 380, 421, 425 (in million VND). a/ Test with a = 0.05 to determine whether there is enough evidence to conclude that expected weekly gross after the advertising campaign differs from 382. b/ Given that the weekly grosses are normally distributed, can we conclude that the advertising campaign helped in improving weekly grosses? (Assuming unequal variances and using a = 0.05)
A consumer-testing agency wants to evaluate the claim made by a manufacturer of discount tires. The manufacturer claims that its tires can be driven at least 35,000 miles before wearing out. To determine the average number of miles that can be obtained from the manufacturer’s tires, the agency randomly selects 60 tires from the manufacturer’s warehouse and places the tires on 15 cars driven by test drivers on a 2-mile oval track. The number of miles driven (in thousands of miles) until the tires are determined to be worn out is given in the following table. Car Miles Driven 1 25 2 27 3 35 4 42 5 28 6 37 7 40 8 31 9 29 10 33 11 30 12 26 13 31 14 28 15 30 Average 31.47 Standard 5.04 Agency would like to know if the manufacturer’s claim is false. Carryout an appropriate hypothesis test (use 1% significance level). Check any assumptions you think are relevant before doing the text.
A big concert was held at the Bowl. Men and women had to go through separate lines to enter. The turnstile on the female entrance showed a total count of 1595 females, but the males turnstile was broken. A sample was taken from the 200 seats in section A, which showed 74 males in the section. Use the male count from section A to estimate the total number of people attending the concert. (Assume none of the seats were empty.)
