There is some evidence that, in the years−198185, a simple name change resulted in a short-term increase in the price of certain business firms' stocks (relative to the prices of similar stocks). (See D. Horsky and P. Swyngedouw, "Does it pay to change your company's name? A stock market perspective," Marketing Sciencev. 6, pp.−32035,1987.) Suppose that, to test the profitability of name changes in the more recent market (the past five years), we analyze the stock prices of a large sample of corporations shortly after they changed names, and we find that the mean relative increase in stock price was about 0.82%, with a standard deviation of 0.13%. Suppose that this mean and standard deviation apply to the population of all companies that changed names during the past five years. Complete the following statements about the distribution of relative increases in stock price for all companies that changed names during the past five years. a) According to Chebyshev's theorem, at least 56%…
There is some evidence that, in the years 1981— 85, a simple name change resulted in a short-term increase in the price of certain business firms' stocks (relative to the prices of similar stocks).

Suppose that, to test the profitability of name changes in the more recent market (the past five years), we analyze the stock prices of a large sample of corporations shortly after they changed names, and we find that the mean relative increase in stock price was about 0.76%, with a standard deviation of 0.12%.

In May 2008, CNN reported that Sports Utility Vehicles (SUVs) are plunging toward the "endangered list". Due to soaring oil prices and environmental concerns, consumers are replacing gas-guzzling vehicles with fuel-efficientsmaller cars. As a result, there has been a big drop in the demand for new as well as used SUVs. A sales manager of a used car dealership for SUVs believes that it takes more than 90 days, on average, to sell an sUV. In order to test his claim, he samples 40 recently sold SUVs and find that it took an average of 95 days to sell an SUV. He believes that the population standard deviation is fairly stable at 20 days. Determine if the sales manager's claim is justifiable at 0.05
According to a newspaper study of more than 1 million medical dispatches from 2007 to 2012, the 911 response time for medical aid varies dramatically across a city. Under national standards adopted by the city's fire department, rescuers are supposed to arrive within six minutes to almost all medical emergencies. But the newspaper analysis found that in affluent hillside communities of the city, firefighters failed to hit that mark nearly 85% of the time. The following data show the response times, in minutes, for 10 emergency calls in the Griffith Park neighborhood. 11.8 10.3 10.7 10.6 11.5 8.3 10.5 10.9 10.7 11.2 Based on this sample of ten response times, compute the descriptive statistics (in minutes) in parts (a) and (b) and then answer the questions in parts (c) and (d).
