However, you are concerned that there may be a limit to this relationship. Some experimentation has convinced you that the relationship between wages paid (x) and profits can be modelled by the equation Profit = 25x − 0.1x2 + 200. Use a Nonlinear Solver tool to determine the level of wages that will maximize profits.arrow_forwardSouthwest Airlines is able to keep fares low, in part because of relatively low maintenance costs on its airplanes. One of the main reasons for the low maintenance costs is that Southwest flies only one type of aircraft, the Boeing 737. However, Southwest flies three different versions of the 737. Suppose Southwest decides to conduct a study to determine whether there is a significant difference in the average annual maintenance costs for the three types of 737s used. a.

- How can we say that Sample Average is the Efficient Linear Estimator of E(Y)?arrow_forwardRecently the European Community (EC) decided to lower its subsidies to makers of pasta. In deciding by what amount to reduce total subsidies, experiments were carried out for determining the possible reduction in exports, mainly to the United States, that would result from the subsidy reduction. Over a small range of values, economists wanted to test whether there is a positive correlation between level of subsidy and level of exports. A computer simulation of the economic variables involved in the pasta exports market was carried out. The results follow. Assuming that the simulation is an accurate description of reality and that the values obtained may be viewed as a random sample of the populations of possible outcomes, state whether you believe that a positive rank correlation exists between subsidy level and exports level over the short range of values studied Qarrow_forwardhere is a negative relationship between two variables if: they move in opposite directions. they move in the same direction. one variable changes and the other does not. neither variable moves.arrow_forward
