A hotel chain wants to estimate the average number of rooms rented daily in each month. The population of rooms rented daily is assumed to be normally distributed for each month with a standard deviation of 24 rooms.
During January, a sample of 16 days has a sample mean of 48 rooms. This information is used to calculate an interval estimate for the population mean to be from 40 to 56 rooms. What is the level of confidence of this interval? Report the level of confidence as a percentage and use 2 decimal places.

An estimated regression equation was developed to predict the average number of runs given up per inning pitched (R/IP) given the average number of strikeouts per inning pitched (SO/IP) and the average number of home runs per inning pitched (HR/IP).

R/IP = 0.5365 - 0.2483 SO/IP + 1.032 HR/IP

*Include all calculations and no excel please*

A buyer for National Sports must place orders with Saucony prior to the time the shows will be sold as they are manufactured overseas and shipping takes several months.  The buyer must decide on November 1 how many pairs of the latest model Saucony’s to order for sale during the coming summer season. Saucony’s ordering policy requires retailers to purchase shoes in lots of 100 pair.  Saucony charges National Sports $45 per pair.  National retails them at $70 per pair.  Any pairs remaining unsold at the end of the summer season will be sold at a 50% closeout sale next fall ($35 per pair).  Market research by Nielsen suggests the following probabilities of demand for the new shoes:

Demand (100s of pairs) Probability
3 0.10
4 0.20
5 0.35
6 0.30
7 0.05
  1. Draw and solve a decision tree for this problem. How many shoes should National order?  
  2. How much profit will they actually earn?
  3. Compute the value of perfect information regarding demand for the new style.
  4. Ipsos is offering additional market research to help National refine the probability of demand.  The price of the market research is $5000.  Should you: (a) snatch it up because the price is below the value of perfect information, (b) draw and solve a value of sample information tree to determine how much the information is really worth in light of its accuracy since the price is below the value of perfect information, or (c) laugh in their face because the price is more than the value of perfect information and the offer is therefore overpriced.

Problem 4: Teen smoking

According to a report published by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, about 20 percent of high school students currently use a tobacco product. This number of down from 23 percent in 2014. (https://www.cdc.gov/tobacco/data_statistics/fact_sheets/youth_data/tobacco_use/index.htm). We would like to conduct a study to evaluate high school students’ attitudes toward scenes of smoking in the movies. Suppose you randomly select students to survey them on their opinion about this question.

a) What is the probability that none of the first 4 students you interview is a smoker? (1 point)

b) What is the probability that there are no more than two smokers among 10 students you randomly choose? (2 points)

c) What is the probability that exactly 3 out of a new sample of 10 students do not smoke? (1 point)

1Does the estimated regression equation provide a good fit to the data? Explain.

2 In part (b) of a different question , an estimated regression equation was developed using only ball speed to predict the average number of yards per drive. Compare the fit obtained using just ball speed to the fit obtained using ball speed and the launch angle.
