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.
c) Explain what 99% confidence means in this context.
Choose the correct answer below.
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)

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

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.

Consider the following statements.
(i). If we are testing for the difference between two population means, it is assumed that the sample observations from one population are independent of the sample observations from the other population.
(ii). If we are testing for the difference between two population means, it is assumed that the two populations are approximately normal and have equal variances.
(iii). The critical value of t for a two-tail test of the difference of two means, a level of signifi- cance of 0.10 and sample sizes of seven and fifteen, is ±1.734.
Which of the following is true?
A. (i), (ii), and (iii) are all correct statements.
B. (i), (ii), and (iii) are all false statements.
C. (i) and (ii) are correct statements but not (iii).
