Dr. Lillian Fok, a New Orleans psychologist, specializes in treating patients who are agoraphobic (i.e., afraid to leave their homes). The following table indicates how many patients Dr. Fok has seen each year for the past 10 years. It also indicates what the robbery rate was in New Orleans during the same year:
Year | 1 | 2 | 3 | 4 | 5 | 6 | 7 | 8 | 9 | 10 |
---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
Number of Patients | 36 | 32 | 39 | 40 | 40 | 56 | 60 | 55 | 59 | 61 |
Robbery Rate per 1,000 Population | 57.8 | 61.4 | 73.0 | 75.7 | 81.1 | 88.6 | 101.5 | 94.2 | 103.2 | 116.2 |
The simple linear regression equation that shows the best relationship between the number of patients and the robbery rate is (round your responses to three decimal places):
\(\hat{y}=\square+\square x\)
where \(\hat{y}\) = Number of Patients and x = Robbery Rate.
In year 11, if the robbery rate increases to 132.50, using trend analysis, the number of patients Dr. Fok will see = _______ patients (round your response to two decimal places).
In year 11, if the robbery rate decreases to 87.6, using trend analysis, the number of patients Dr. Fok will see = _______ patients (round your response to two decimal places).

Consider a class Movie that information about a movie. The class has the following attributes:
• The movie name
• The MPAA rating (for example, G, PG, PG-13, R)
• The number of people that have rated this movie as a 1 (Terrible)
• The number of people that have rated this movie as a 2 (Bad)
• The number of people that have rated this movie as a 3 (OK)
• The number of people that have rated this movie as a 4 (Good)
• The number of people that have rated this movie as a 5 (Great)
Implement the C ++ class with accessor (getter) and mutator (setter) functions for the movie name and MPAA rating. Write a function addRating that takes an integer as input parameter. The function should verify that the parameter is number between 1 and 5, and if so, increment the number of people rating the movie that match the input parameter. For example, if 3 is the input parameter, then the number of people that rated the movie as a 3 should be incremented by 1. Write another function, getAverage, that returns the average value for all of the movie ratings. Finally, add a constructor that allows the programmer to create the object with a specific name and MPAA rating. The number of people rating the movie should be set to 0 in the constructor. Test the class by writing a main function that creates at least two movie objects, add at least five ratings for each movie, and outputs the movie name, MPAA rating, and average rating for each movie object.

Café Michigan's manager, Gary Stark, suspects that demand for mocha latte coffees depends on the price being charged. Based on historical observations, Gary has gathered the following data, which show the numbers of these coffees sold over six different price values:
Price Number Sold

$3.60 510
$2.00 975
$4.10 245
$3.10 325
$4.05 475
Using these data, how many mocha latte coffees would be forecast to
be sold according to simple linear regression if the price per cup

Problem 11-16
Wally’s Widget Warehouse takes orders from 7 A.M. to 7 P.M. The
manager wants to analyze the process and has provided the process
flow diagram shown below. There are three steps required to ship a
customer order. The first step is to take the order from a
customer. The second step is to pick the order for the customer,
and then they have to pack the order ready for shipping. Wally
promises that every order placed today gets shipped tomorrow. That
means that the picking and packing operations must finish all
orders before they go home. |
Wally wants to figure out the following. |
a. | What is the current maximum daily output of the process assuming that no one works overtime? (i.e., meaning all three operations work a 12-hour shift) |
Current maximum output | units per day |
b. | How long (in hours) will the picking and packing operations have to work to finish all the orders that were taken if we have a day where the order taker works at his maximum capacity? |
Pick orders | hours |
Pack orders | hours |
c. | Givenb, what is the maximum number of orders waiting to be picked? |
Maximum number of orders | units |
d. | Givenb, what is the maximum number of orders waiting to be packed? |
Maximum number of orders | units |
Management is considering doubling the packing capacity (from 60 to 120 orders per hour). Please answer the following based on that change. |
e. | How long will the picking and packing operations have to work if we have a day where the order taker works at his maximum capacity? |
Pick orders | hours |
Pack orders | hours |
f. | Givene, what is the maximum number of orders waiting to be picked? |
Maximum number of orders | units |
g. | Givene, what is the maximum number of orders waiting to be packed? |
Maximum number of orders | units |
