Consider the hypothetical case that there were only two brands of juice on the market, company A and company B. 52% of the population drinks juice from company A (it is not known whether these people consume only juice A or if they also consume juice B). 51% of the population drinks juice of company B (again, it is not known how many of these people drink only juice B or if they drink both juice). However, it is known that 21% of the population does not drink juice. Based on these data, we can estimate that the percentage of the population that drinks juice from both companies is: (choose only one): a) 36% b)37% c) 24% d)23% e)5.3%
In a classic study of infant attachment, Harlow (1959) placed infant monkeys in cages with two artificial surrogate mothers. One “mother” was made from bare wire mesh and contained a baby bottle from which the infants could feed. The other mother was made from soft terry cloth and did not provide any access to food. Harlow observed the infant monkeys and recorded how much time per day was spent with each mother. In atypical day, the infants spent a total of 18 hours clinging to one of the two mothers. If there were no preference between the two, you would expect the time to be divided evenly, with an average of μ=9 hours for each of the mothers. However, the typical monkey spent around 15 hours per day with the terry-cloth mother, indicating a strong preference for the soft, cuddly mother. Suppose a sample of n=9 infant monkeys averaged M=15.3 hours per day with SS=216 with the terry-cloth mother. Is this result sufficient to conclude that the monkeys spent significantly more time with…
IN excel if possibleGreat Grasslands Grains, Inc. (GGG) manufactures and sells a wide variety of breakfast cereals. GGG’sproduct development lab recently created a new cereal that consists of rice flakes and banana-flavoredmarshmallows. The company’s marketing research department has tested the new cereal extensivelyand has found that consumers are enthusiastic about the cereal when 16-ounce boxes contain at least1.6 ounces and no more than 2.4 ounces of the banana-flavored marshmallows.As GGG prepares to begin producing and selling 16-ounce boxes of the new cereal, which it has namedGo Bananas management is concerned about the amount of banana-flavored marshmallows. It wants tobe careful not to include less than 1.6 ounces or more than 2.4 ounces of banana-flavoredmarshmallows in each 16-ounce box of Go Bananas. Tina Finkel, VP of Production for GGG, hassuggested that the company measure the weight of banana-flavored marshmallows in a random sampleof 25 boxes of Go Bananas on a weekly…
The quality department at an electronics company has noted that, historically, 91% of the units of a specific product pass a test operation, 6% fail the test but are able to be repaired, and 3% fail the test and need to be scrapped. Due to recent process improvements, the quality department would like to test if the rates have changed. A recent sample of 500 parts revealed that 473 parts passed the test, 20 parts failed the test but were repairable, and 7 parts failed the test and were scrapped. (You may find it useful to reference the appropriate table: chi-square table or table)a. Choose the appropriate alternative hypothesis for the test.
Dr. Pagels is a mammalogist who studies meadow and common voles. He frequently traps the moles and has noticed what appears to be a preference for a peanut butter-oatmeal mixture by the meadow voles vs apple slices are usually used in traps, where the common voles seem to prefer the apple slices. So he conducted a study where he used a peanut butter-oatmeal mixture in half the traps and the normal apple slices in his remaining traps to see if there was a food preference between the two different voles. To test for independence, we need to calculate the Chi-square statistic. These are the data that Dr. Pagels collected ( the attachment): You will want to use Excel (or Google sheets) to do the calculations for you, so that your answers are exact (they need to be exact to get credit. Here is a Google sheet to get you started. When transferring your answers, make sure you carry them out to AT LEAST SIX SIGNIFICANT FIGURES unless otherwise stated.

Company A receives large shipments of microprocessors from Company B. It must try to ensure the proportion of microprocessors that are defective is small. Suppose Company A decides to test 10 microprocessors out of a shipment of thousands of these microprocessors. Suppose that if at least one of the microprocessors is defective, the shipment is returned. Complete parts a through c.a. If Company B's shipment contains 8% defective microprocessors, calculate the probability the entire shipment will be returned.The probability is0.5656.(Round to four decimal places as needed.) I only need answer to B below:b. If Company B and Company A agree that Company B will not provide more than 3% defective chips, calculate the probability that the entire shipment will be returned even though only 3% are defective.The probability is (Round to four decimal places as needed.)
What proportion of machine time would be lost in operating four machines when the machine operates 70 percent of the time unattended and the operator attention time at irregular intervals averages 30 percent? Is this the best arrangement on the basis of minimizing the proportion of machine time lost?
Which concrete is best sold where? The marketing team of an engineering firm noticed that some of their concrete products are having trouble being sold at some of their distribution points. So they decided to investigate the sales for three concrete types: high-strength concrete, stamped concrete, and high-performance concrete. After consulting with the sales managers at three of their distribution points (A, B and C), they suspected two possibilities as potential reasons for the sales problem. The first is simply that some concrete types just sells better than others. The second is that in general, concrete sells in some places better than in others. So, they thought that if the first reason was true, they would have to just cut down on the production of the concrete types which don’t sell well. But if the second reason was true, then they would just limit normal distribution of concrete to places where it sells well. To clear these issues out they conducted a study. For each…
Zara stores in the United States stocks a particular type of designer denim jeans in the United States. It stores 500 pairs of jeans each month from its two suppliers. The Hong Kong supplier charges Zara $11 per pair of jeans, and the Colombian supplier charges $16 per pair (and then Zara marks them up almost 1,000%). Although the jeans from Hong Kong are less expensive, they also have more defects than those from Colombia. Based on past data, Zara estimates that 7% of the Hong Kong jeans will be defective compared to only 2% from Colombia and Zara does not want to import any more than 5% defective items. However, Zara does not want to rely on a single supplier, so it wants to order at least 20% from each supplier every month. D. If the Hong Kong supplier were able to reduce its percentage of defective pairs of jeans from 7% to %5, what would be the effect on the solution. Solve c in a separate sheet. First copy the sheet you solved a, b and c. Then change the necessary line and…
Company A receives large shipments of microprocessors from Company B. It must try to ensure the proportion of microprocessors that are defective is small. Suppose Company A decides to test ten microprocessors out of a shipment of thousands of these microprocessors. Suppose that if at least one of the microprocessors is defective, the shipment is returned. Complete parts a through c. a. If Company B's shipment contains 8% defective microprocessors, calculate the probability the entire shipment will be returned. The probability is nothing.
A study was conducted to demonstrate that soybeans inoculated with nitrogen-fixing bacteria yield more and grow adequately without expensive environmentally deleterious synthesized fertilizers. The trial was conducted under controlled conditions with uniform amounts of soil. The initial hypothesis was that inoculated plants would outperform their uninoculated counterparts. This assumption is based on the facts that plants need nitrogen to manufacture vital proteins and amino acids and that nitrogen-fixing bacteria would make more of this substance available to plants, increasing their size and yield. There were 8 inoculated plants (I) and 8 uninoculated plants (U). The plant yield as measured by pod weight for each plant is given in Table 2.20 Here are the questions I would like explanations for. Please use STATA to compute answers!!!: 2.35. The objective is to compute appropriate descriptive statistics for I and Data set available U plants. 2.36. Use graphic methods to compare the…
