  1. Compute the mean price for models with a DVD player and the mean price for models without a DVD player. What is the additional price paid to have a DVD player included in a home theater unit?

  2. Compute the range, variance, and standard deviation for the two samples. What does this information tell you about the prices for models with and without a DVD player?

Use the following linear regression equation regarding airline tickets to answer the question. (The dataset collected for Distance was from 500 miles to 5,687 miles) Note: that Distance is the number of miles between the departure and arrival cities, and Price is the cost in dollars of an airline ticket.

(a) Find the slope using the linear regression equation given to you above. Inter- pret the value that you got for the slope in the context of the problem. Predicted Price= 49 + 0.22 (Distance) (b) Find the y-intercept using the linear regression equation given to you. If ap- propriate interpret the value you got for the y-intercept in the context of the problem.

(c) If appropriate predict the Price of an airline ticket if the distance between the departure and arrival cities is 1,752 miles.

Speedy Delivery Company purchases a delivery van for $33,600. Speedy estimates that at the end of its four-year service life, the van will be worth $5,200. During the four-year period, the company expects to drive the van 177,500 miles.

Actual miles driven each year were 46,000 miles in year 1 and 51,000 miles in year 2.

  

Required:

Calculate annual depreciation for the first two years of the van using each of the following methods. (Do not round your intermediate calculations.)

A tire company claims that the lifetimes of its tires average 49750 miles. The standard deviation of tire lifetimes is known to be 4750 miles. You sample 75 tires and will test the hypothesis that the mean tire lifetime is at least 49750 miles against the alternative that it is less. Assume, in fact, that the true mean lifetime is 49250 miles.

It is decided to reject H0 if the sample mean is less than 49150. Find the level and power of this test. Round the answers to four decimal places.

At what level should the test be conducted so that the power is 0.75?

You are given the opportunity to sample more tires. How many tires should be sampled in total so that the power is 0.75 if the test is made at the 5% level? Round the answer to the next largest integer.
