Customers arrive at a cafe every 2 minutes on average according to a Poisson process. There are 2 employees working at the bar providing customer service, i.e., one handling customer orders and another handling payments. It takes an average of 1 minute to complete each order (exponentially distributed). Based on the above:

f. What are the service time probability density and cumulative distribution functions?

g. What percentage of customer orders will be prepared in exactly 2 minutes?

h. What are the chances it will take between 3 and 4 minutes to prepare a customer’s order?

i. What is the average service rate for completing orders?

j. What is the average number of customers waiting to order?

k. What is the average number of customers at the cafe?

l. On average, how long does it take to serve a customer?

Two advertising media are being considered for the promotion of a product. Radio ads cost $480 each, while newspaper ads cost $550 each. The total budget is $20,000 per week. The total number of ads should be at least 30, with a max of 5 newspaper ads. Each newspaper ad reaches 8,000 people, while each radio ad reaches 5,000 people.

Let R = # of radio ads

Let P = # of newspaper ads

Max 5000 R + 8000P

s. t.

480R + 550P <= 20000 cost of ads

R + P >= 30 total # of ads

P <= 5 max number of newspaper ads

R,P >= 0

The time it takes a randomly selected job applicant to perform a certain task has a distribution that can be approximated by a normal distribution with a mean of 120 seconds and a standard deviation of 20 seconds.  The fastest 10% are to be given advanced training. What task time qualifies individuals for such training? (Remember the fastest times takes the least amount of time.) Use Excel to find your answer .Round your answer to the nearest second.

Fill out the answer sheet for each of the hypothesis tests below, using a 5% level of significance. Use 4 decimal places, unless the p-value is really small (less than 0.0001), in which case use at least 2 significant figures This means 2 non-zero numbers somewhere after the decimal point). Axis of graphs should be drawn with a ruler or done on a computer.

Suppose that students own an average of 4 pairs of jeans. 8 people from your class were surveyed to determine if the average for students at De Anza College is higher than 4.

DATA TO USE: 2,2,3,4,6,6,8,9

a. Give the null and alternative hypotheses: Ho: _______________ Ha: ___________________

b. In words, CLEARLY state what your random variable X or P' represents.

c. State the distribution to use for the test. If t, include the degrees of freedom. If normal, include the mean and standard deviation.

d. p-value = ______________


e. In 1 – 2 complete sentences, explain what the p-value means for this problem.

f. Use the previous information to draw a graph of this situation. CLEARLY, label and scale the horizontal axis and shade the region(s) corresponding to the p-value. The values of your sample statistic and the hypothesized value of the population parameter should be on the axis.

g. Indicate the correct decision (“reject the null hypothesis” or “do not reject the null hypothesis”) and write an appropriate conclusion, using COMPLETE SENTENCES.

Decision:

Conclusion:


h. Construct a 95% Confidence Interval for the true mean or proportion. Include a sketch of the graph of the

situation. Label the point estimate and the lower and upper bounds of the Confidence Interval.

A researcher is interested in evaluating a certain brand of radial auto tire. Twenty tires are randomly selected from retail outlets throughout the country, and each is placed on a special machine which rotates the tires at a constant speed (equivalent to 55 miles per hour) against the friction equivalent of a 4000 pound auto being driven on a smooth highway. Each tire is run until there is no tread left. The number of miles (in thousands) were as follows: 40, 30, 32, 35, 39, 35, 31, 36, 37, 35, 34, 35, 37, 34, 36, 38, 35, 36, 35, 36.

Setting alpha at .01, test the hypothesis that this sample of tires could represent a population whose mean was 36.50.

If the p-value has to be between 1 and 0, how do we approximate the p-value? For example, the p-value is 0.99999999777 when I use R, but if I put the same information into the Minitab, the p-value becomes 0. What is the rule for an approximation when it comes to the p-value? Is any p-value 0.9 and lower always going to be less than alpha=0.05?
