In a hypothetical island that is 5,000 miles away from humanity and includes no frictions in the market other than human nature, there are many shipping companies going back and forth that carry goods produced in the island to the world outside the island. There is also a dock to load these goods to the ships. The shipping industry is perfectly competitive.

In the island, there is a cement factory. The price per unit of cement at the door of the factory is $200 and the world price of same cement per unit is $350. But cement should be carried to the dock to be loaded in the ships. There are two means for transporting cement to the dock: i) a pipeline that pumps the cement to the dock (Company P) and ii) truck companies. There are many truck companies in the island and this industry is also perfectly competitive. Both the pipeline and the truck companies have identical services both in terms of price, speed, and amount carried each time. Truck companies can carry any item produced in the island, but the pipeline can only carry cement.

10 years ago, Company C and Company P signed a contract that set the price per unit of cement carried through the pipeline as $25 (10 years from that date, which is today, the price per unit of cement carried is also $25 for truck companies). This contact will expire tomorrow at 8 am and the companies met to negotiate the new terms of the contract.

1. What should be the new price for this new contract, if the two companies can agree on it? Why? Explain your rationale behind this prediction.

2. What can Company P do to maximize its benefits or survive? (Hint: since this is a hypothetical world, the capital markets are efficient)

It is advertised that the average braking distance for a small car traveling at 75 miles per hour equals 120 feet. A transportation researcher wants to determine if the statement made in the advertisement is false. She randomly test drives 38 small cars at 75 miles per hour and records the braking distance. The sample average braking distance is computed as 112 feet. Assume that the population standard deviation is 20 feet. (You may find it useful to reference the appropriate table: z table or t table)

a. State the null and the alternative hypotheses for the test.
  

• H₀: μ = 120; H_A: μ ≠ 120

• H₀: μ ≥ 120; H_A: μ < 120

• H₀: μ ≤ 120; H_A: μ > 120

b. Calculate the value of the test statistic and the p-value. (Negative value should be indicated by a minus sign. Round intermediate calculations to at least 4 decimal places and final answer to 2 decimal places.)
  

Find the p-value.
  

• 0.025 p-value < 0.05
• 0.05 p-value < 0.10
• p-value 0.10

• p-value < 0.01

• 0.01 p-value < 0.025

c. Use α = 0.10 to determine if the average breaking distance differs from 120 feet.
  

It is advertised that the average braking distance for a small car traveling at 65 miles per hour equals 120 feet. A transportation researcher wants to determine if the statement made in the advertisement is false. She randomly test drives 34 small cars at 65 miles per hour and records the braking distance. The sample average braking distance is computed as 116 feet. Assume that the population standard deviation is 22 feet. (You may find it useful to reference the appropriate table: z table or t table) b. Calculate the value of the test statistic and the p-value. (Negative value should be indicated by a minus sign. Round intermediate calculations to at least 4 decimal places and final answer to 2 decimal places.)

The data in the table represent the weights of various domestic cars and their miles per gallon in the city for the 2008 model year. For the data from the first 11​ cars, the​ least-squares regression line is y=−0.0062x+42.4755. A twelfth car weighs 2,705 pounds and gets 14 miles per gallon. Compute the coefficient of determination of the expanded data set​ (including the twelfth​ car). What effect does the addition of the twelfth car to the data set have on Rsquared2​?

It is advertised that the average braking distance for a small car traveling at 65 miles per hour equals 120 feet. A transportation researcher wants to determine if the statement made in the advertisement is false. She randomly test drives 37 small cars at 65 miles per hour and records the braking distance. The sample average braking distance is computed as 111 feet. Assume that the population standard deviation is 21 feet. (You may find it useful to reference the appropriate table: z table or t table) a. State the null and the alternative hypotheses for the test.

To get to a concert in time, a harpsichordist has to drive 122 miles in 1.93 hours. (a) If he drove at an average speed of 52.0 mi/h in a due west direction for the first 1.22 h, what must be his average speed if he is heading 30.0° south of west for the remaining 42.6 min?(b) What is his average velocity for the entire trip?(give magnitude and direction)

Suppose the Gulfstream G550 is cruising at an altitude and of 41,000 feet. and 559 miles per hour, respectively. If the plane currently weighs 74,950 pounds, how much thrust is required to maintain these flight conditions? The wingspan is 91.5 feet and the wing platform area is 1,137 square feet. The Oswald efficiency factor is 0.9 and the zero-lift drag coefficient is 0.0165.
