Hoping to lure more shoppers​ downtown, a city builds a new public parking garage in the central business district. The city plans to pay for the structure through parking fees. For a random sample of

43 ​weekdays, daily fees collected averaged ​$128​, with standard deviation of ​1717.

Complete parts a through e below.

a) Find a 99​% confidence interval for the mean daily income this parking garage will generate.

The 99​% confidence interval for the mean daily income is ​($_________________, $___________​).

​(Round to two decimal places as​ needed.)

b) Explain in context what this confidence interval means.

Choose the correct answer below.

  1. There is 99​% confidence that the daily income for a weekday falls in the interval.
  2. There is 99​% confidence that the interval contains the mean daily income.
  3. There is 99​% confidence that the daily income for all weekdays falls in the interval.
  4. There is 99​% confidence that the mean daily income will always fall in the interval.

c) Explain what 99​% confidence means in this context.

Choose the correct answer below.

  1. 99​% of all samples of size 43 produce intervals that contain the mean daily income.
  2. 99​% of all samples of size 43 have a mean daily income that is in the interval.
  3. 99​% of all weekdays sampled have daily incomes that fall in the interval.
  4. 99​% of all weekdays have daily incomes that fall in the interval.

e) The consultant who advised the city on this project predicted that parking revenues would average ​$133 per day. Based on your confidence​ interval, what do you think of the​ consultant's prediction? ​ Why?

Since the 99​% confidence interval (Contains or Does Not Contain) the predicted​ average, the​ consultant's prediction is (Not Plausible or Plausible)

Win/Loss and With/Without Joe: Joe plays basketball for the Wildcats and missed some of the season due to an injury. The win/loss record with and without Joe is summarized in the contingency table below.

Observed Frequencies: Oi's

  Wins     Losses     Totals  
With Joe     15     6     21  
Without Joe     6     13     19  
Totals     21     19     40  


The Test: Test for a significant dependent relationship between wins/losses and whether or not Joe played. Conduct this test at the 0.05 significance level.

(a) What is the test statistic? Round your answer to 3 decimal places.

χ2

(b) What is the conclusion regarding the null hypothesis?

reject H0

fail to reject H0    


(c) Choose the appropriate concluding statement.

We have proven that Joe causes the team to do better.

The evidence suggests that the outcome of the game is dependent upon whether or not Joe played.     

There is not enough evidence to conclude that the outcome of the game is dependent upon whether or not Joe played.

We have proven that the outcome of the game is independent of whether or not Joe played.

The Oman National Grid Company ventures to a new project in the southern part of the Sultanate which is a 250-kilometer, 132 kilovolts transmission lines. The company has to choose between an Overhead transmission system and Underground transmission system. Table Q2 shows the initial investment for each type, the expected revenues during its lifetime which includes the cost savings incurred by underground transmission system over the overhead transmission system. The company has estimated a salvage value for each type of transmission to be 5% of the initial investment. As a company policy the minimum attractive rate of return MARR is 8% per year. Determine which of the two alternatives is acceptable to the company using the following methods; (i) Simple payback period; [7] (ii) Benefit cost ratio; [6] (ii) Net present value NPV; [6] (iii) Internal rate of return IRR

  1. A company is about to sell to a new client. It knows from past experience that there is a real possibility that the client may default on payment. As a precaution the company checks with a consultant on the likelihood of the client defaulting in this case and is given an estimate of 20%. Sometimes the consultant gets it wrong. Your own experience of the consultant is that he is correct 70% of the time when he predicts that the client will default but that 20% of clients who he believes will not default actually do. What is the probability that the new client will not default?

The relationship between the amount of remaining carbon monoxide (CO) in an individual’s lungs and the time since that person last smoked a cigarette can be summarized using a linear regression approach.

Write down a simple linear regression model and the underlying assumptions. The following summary data was collected from 12 different smokers.

x = time since last smoked a cigarette (hours) y = amount of CO in ppm

n=12, x=1.88 sxx =25.8, syy =1805 SSE=877.4 Fitted regression line: ?̂ = ??. ?? − ?. ??? ?

(k) What is the residual at ?0 = 2.25 if the corresponding observed amount CO is

28ppm

(l) Estimate the mean amount of CO in the lungs for an elapsed time of 2.25 hours.

(m) Construct a 95% confidence interval for the true mean amount of CO in the lungs

for an elapsed time of 2.25 hours.
