Too little or too much wine? Wine-pouring vending machines, previously available in Europe and international airports, have become popular in the past few years in the United States. They are even approved to dispense wine in some Walmart stores. The available pouring options are a 5-ounce glass, a 2.5-ounce half-glass, and a 1-ounce taste. When the machine is in statistical control (see Exercise 7.43), the amount dispensed for a full glass is 5.1 ounces. Four observations are taken each day to plot a daily

What do people actually order at Chipotle? How healthy is a normal Chipotle meal? Chipotle and other relatively new fast casual chains like Shake Shack, Potbelly and Five Guys typically promote themselves as having healthier menu choices than the traditional fast food outlets like McDonald's, Taco Bell, Burger King, etc.The recommended daily calorie intake for most adults is 1,600 to 2,400. The histogram below shows the calories in approximately 3,000 meals ordered from Chipotle on Grubhub.While the histogram is not perfectly symmetric (there is mild right skewness), it is close enough to being symmetric and bell-shaped to justify using the 68-95-99.7 rule. Suppose the distribution of calories in a Chipotle meal can be considered symmetric and bell-shaped with mean 1079 calories and standard deviation 296 calories. Use the 68-95-99.7 rule to answer the following questions.a. What is the approximate percentage of the Chipotle meals that have between 487 and 1671 calories?b. The middle…
A sociologist examines the relationship between the poverty rate and several socioeconomic factors. For the 50 states and the District of Columbia (n =
51), he collects data on the poverty rate (y, in %), the percent of the population with at least a high school education (x1), median income (x2, in $1000s),
and the mortality rate per 1,000 residents (x3). He estimates the following model as = Bo + B1 Education + B2 Income + B3 Mortality + ɛ. The
following ANOVA table shows a portion of the regression results.

- Cholesterol Cholesterol in human blood is necessary, but too much can lead to health problems. There are three main types of cholesterol: HDL (high-density lipoproteins), LDL (low-density lipoproteins), and VLDL (very low-density lipoproteins). HDL is considered “good” cholesterol; LDL and VLDL are considered “bad” cholesterol. A standard fasting cholesterol blood test measures total cholesterol, HDL cholesterol, and triglycerides. These numbers are used to estimate LDL and VLDL, which are difficult to measure directly. Your doctor recommends that your combined LDL/VLDL cholesterol level be less than 130 milligrams per deciliter, your HDL cholesterol level be at least 60 milligrams per deciliter, and your total cholesterol level be no more than 200 milligrams per deciliter. (a) Write a system of linear inequalities for the recommended cholesterol levels. Let x represent the HDL cholesterol level, and let y represent the combined LDL VLDL cholesterol level. (b) Graph the system of inequalities from part (a). Label any vertices of the solution region. (c) Is the following set of cholesterol levels within the recommendations? Explain. LDL/VLDL: 120 milligrams per deciliter HDL: 90 milligrams per deciliter Total: 210 milligrams per deciliter (d) Give an example of cholesterol levels in which the LDL/VLDL cholesterol level is too high but the HDL cholesterol level is acceptable. (e) Another recommendation is that the ratio of total cholesterol to HDL cholesterol be less than 4 (that is, less than 4 to 1). Identify a point in the solution region from part (b) that meets this recommendation, and explain why it meets the recommendation.arrow_forwardUse this data for the exercises that follow: In 2013, there were roughly 317 million citizens in the United States, and about 40 million were elderly (aged 65 and over).[34] 60.

- Fuel Economy, Minivans - The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) publishes fuel economy values that are known to be good estimates of the fuel economy a typical driver will achieve under average driving conditions. One of the fuel economy values the EPA publishes is a combined estimate, which represents a combination of city driving (55%) and highway driving (45%). Toyota Sienna, a popular minivan, advertises an average combined fuel usage of 22 mpg.
