f there is no seasonal effect on people getting sick, we would expect equal numbers of people getting sick in each season (winter, spring, summer and fall). A student takes a census of students who took Marketing Research in 2019 and finds that of the 280 students who took Marketing Research in 2019, 75 were sick in winter, 65 were sick in spring, 68 were sick in summer and 72 were sick in fall. She wonders if the excess in the winter is an indication that sickness rates are not uniform throughout the year. What is an appropriate H1? a. The number of people getting sick is not equally distributed across the four seasons. b. The observed values equal the observed values. c. The number of people getting sick is equally distributed across the four seasons. d. The expected values equal the expected values.
t the Blood Bank, they know that O+ blood is the most common blood type and that 40%40% of the people are known to have O+ blood. Blood type A- is a very scarce blood type and only 6%6% of the people have A- blood. Half of the people have blood type A or B. Let: X=X= number of people who have blood type O+ Y=Y= number of people who have blood type A- Z=Z= number of people who have blood type A or B

An analyst in the real estate business is interested in the relationship between the cost of the monthly rent of an apartment and the size of an apartment, in big cities. She gathers data for apartment buildings in 12 cities in 12 different states. In each city, she gets the numbers for at least 5 different buildings and at least 40 apartments in each building. She reaches the following conclusion: the rental cost of a 2-bedroom apartment is 50% more than the rental cost of a 1-bedroom apartment, and the rental cost of a 3-bedroom apartment is 50% more than the rental cost of a 2-bedroom apartment. Based on the paragraph, what is the minimum number of apartments she collected data on? Do you think her sample was large enough to be statistically valid? Based on the paragraph, are there any apartments or apartment buildings that she would have excluded from her study? Do you see any bias in how she selected apartments for her study? Based on the paragraph, is there a positive…
Suppose that the operations in a post office can be defined as M/M/3 queueing system, which means we have 3 clerks. Customers arrive at the rate of λ = 12 and get the service at the rate of μ = 3. The number of people in the system can be at most 5. Find : a) What is the average time spent in the system by a customer? b) What is the average time spent in the queue by a customer?

Persons having Raynaud's syndrome are apt to suffer a sudden impairment of blood circulation in fingers and toes. In an experiment to study the extent of this impairment, each subject immersed a forefinger in water and the resulting heat output (cal/cm2/min) was measured. For m = 9 subjects with the syndrome, the average heat output was x = 0.65, and for n = 9 nonsufferers, the average output was 2.03. Let μ1 and μ2 denote the true average heat outputs for the sufferers and nonsufferers, respectively. Assume that the two distributions of heat output are normal wit
