- Q A business researcher is investigating the relationship between certain personality characteristics of s business owners and the businesses' growth potential over the next five years. The researcher randon selects 15 small business owners, administers the "Speed and Impatience" (X) and "Job Involvement subscales of the Jenkins Activity Survey, and then determines the "Growth Potential (Z) for the businesses. The resulting data are as follows.

Feeding predictive models with data from an infrared sensor system to anticipate when shoppers will reach the checkout counters, they are able to alert workers to open more checkout lines as needed. This has allowed them to lower their avera checkout time from four minutes to less than 30 seconds. Consider the data in the following table containing 32 observations. Suppose each observation gives the arrival time (measured in minutes before p.m.) and the shopping time (measured in minutes).

If a manager has a graduate degree equals 1, 0 otherwise. Table Attached Question: Use the (full) model to determine the compensation for a manager who has been working for twelve years in a company, no graduate degree, and Nimrod Inc profit of $8.000.000 last year.arrow_forwardWhat are the key concerns of the local government?
