Twocompanies are vying for a city’s “Best Local Employer”award, to be given to the company most committed tohiring local residents. Although both employers hired300 new people in the past year, Company A brags that itdeserves the award because 70% of its new jobs went tolocal residents, compared to only 60% for Company B.Company B concedes that those percentages are correct, but points out that most of its new jobs were full-time,while most of Company A’s were part-time. Not only that,says Company B, but a higher percentage of its full-timejobs went to local residents than did Company A’s, andthe same was true for part-time jobs. Thus, Company Bargues, it’s a better local employer than Company A.Show how it’s possible for Company B to fill a higherpercentage of both full-time and part-time jobs with local residents, even though Company A hired more local resi-dents overall.arrow_forward

- 2. Terms and logic of ANOVA Presbycusis is the gradual hearing loss that occurs as a person ages. An estimated one-quarter of Americans between the ages of 65 and 75 and three-quarters of those older than 75 have some degree of hearing loss. An audiologist is interested in the efficacy of three different types of hearing aids. He gathers three groups of hearing-impaired clients: One group receives analog hearing aids, which convert sound waves into amplified electrical signals. The second group receives digital hearing aids, which use directional microphones to control the flow of sound and convert the sound waves into numerical codes before amplifying them. The third group receives cochlear implants. The results come in, and a statistician conducts an analysis of variance. The is that there is no difference between the population means (in other words, there is no treatment effect). The is that at least one of the population means is different from another (in…arrow_forward3 Upon admission to college, students often must take placement tests in English and mathematics. Students who "fail," for example, the mathematics placement test must retake high school level mathematics (called remedial mathematics) before being able to take the mathematics required to graduate from college. Sometimes students fail the mathematics placement test because they did not bother to review basic ideas of algebra and geometry before taking the test. These students are placed into remedial mathematics classes even though they are capable of doing college level mathematics. The hypothetical table below shows the results for a random sample of 100 entering freshmen who did not bother to review for the placement test.
