What are the different white-collar crimes? Representatives of hotels, restaurants, hotel and restaurant supply companies, and other businesses located in Portland, Oregon, organized an association to attract conventions to their city. Members were asked to make contributions equal to 1 percent of their sales to finance the association. To aid collections, hotel members, including Hilton Hotels Corporation, agreed to give preferential treatment to suppliers who paid their assessments and to curtail purchases from those who did not. This agreement violated federal antitrust laws. The United States sued the members of the association, including Hilton Hotels, for the crime of violating federal antitrust laws. Can a corporation be held criminally liable for the acts of its representatives? If so, what criminal penalties can be assessed against the corporation?

A study of the career paths of hotel general managers sent questionnaires to an SRS of 250 hotels belonging to major U.S. hotel chains. There were 127 responses. The average time these 127 general managers had spent with their current company was 8.92 years. (Take it as known that the standard deviation of time with the company for all general managers is 2.8 years.)

(a) Find the margin of error for a 90% confidence interval to estimate the mean time a general manager had spent with their current company: years

(b) Find the margin of error for a 99% confidence interval to estimate the mean time a general manager had spent with their current company: years

(c) In general, increasing the confidence level the margin of error (width) of the confidence interval. (Enter: ''DECREASES'', ''DOES NOT CHANGE'' or ''INCREASES'', without the quotes.)

A study of the career paths of hotel general managers sent questionnaires to an SRS of 240 hotels belonging to major U.S. hotel chains. There were 133 responses. The average time these 133 general managers had spent with their current company was 12.37 years. (Take it as known that the standard deviation of time with the company for all general managers is 1.5 years.)

Andy and Becca are a young professional couple (family practice physician and personal injury plaintiff’s lawyer, respectively), both in private practice with an office at home. They own their home (with a mortgage) and two economy cars (outright) of recent vintage. They expect to finish paying off their student loans next year. They have a 5-year old son and a 2-year old daughter. Their furnishings and decorations are modest, as are their possessions, except for Becca’s engagement and wedding ring (valued at $10,000) and the baseball card collection that Andy inherited from his dad (3,000 cards from the 50’s, 60’s, and 70’s, including many Hall of Fame players) What insurance coverages should they buy in order to protect their assets and future earnings?

The average daily attendance of a small amusement park is 4,219 people. In order to increase the average daily attendance, the park owners decided to lower the price for admissions. For the first 25 days after the highly publicized price reduction the average daily attendance was 4,537. You can assume that the population standard deviation is 674. Assume that these 25 days can be considered a random sample of the days to come and that daily attendance follows a normal distribution.

a.) Test at the 5% level of significance whether the price reduction was effective. Explain your approach (including your hypotheses and test statistic) and conclusion.

b.) How and why would your answer in Part 1 change if the significance level had been 1%? Explain using 1 or 2 sentences.

thank you! :)

A food services manager for a baseball park wants to know if there is a relationship between gender (male or female) and the preferred condiment on a hot dog. The following table summarizes the results. Test the hypothesis with a significance level of 10%.

A survey found that​ women's heights are normally distributed with mean 62.2 in. and standard deviation 2.2 in. The survey also found that​ men's heights are normally distributed with mean 67.3 in. and standard deviation 3.3 in. Most of the live characters employed at an amusement park have height requirements of a minimum of 57 in. and a maximum of 63 in. Complete parts​ (a) and​ (b) below.

a. Find the percentage of men meeting the height requirement. What does the result suggest about the genders of the people who are employed as characters at the amusement​park?

The percentage of men who meet the height requirement is ___

(Round to two decimal places if needed)

b. If the height requirement are changed to exclude only the tallest 50% of men and the shortest 5% of men, what are the new height requirements?

The new height requirements are a minimum of ___ in. and a maximum of ___ in.

(Round to two decimal places if needed)

A survey found that women's heights are normally distributed with mean 63.8in. and standard deviation 3.5in. The survey also found that men's heights are normally distributed with mean 67.5in. and standard deviation 3.5in. Most of the live characters employed at an amusement park have height requirements of a minimum of 56in. and a maximum of 64in. Complete parts (a) and (b) below.

a. Find the percentage of men meeting the height requirement. What does the result suggest about the genders of the people who are employed as characters at the amusement park?

The percentage of men who meet the height requirement is?  (Round to two decimal places as needed.)

b. If the height requirements are changed to exclude only the tallest 50% of men and the shortest 5% of men, what are the new height requirements?

The new height requirements are a minimum of _______ in. and a maximum of _________ in. (Round to one decimal place as needed.)

According to national data, 20.7% of burglaries are cleared with arrests. A new detective is assigned to six different burglaries. What is the probability that at least one of them is cleared with an arrest?

Consider 4 species of plants in Point of Rocks Park where there are 160 White Pines, 80 Hackberries, 300 Pin Oaks, and 60 Tulip Poplars. What is the probability, and explain how you go about finding the probability, of randomly picking a Pin Oak out of this park.

The probability is . To get the probability, divide  by .

Dr. Baum is analyzing the distribution of two genus of trees, Acer and Quercus.  In the forest you are currently studying with her, there are 11 species in the genus Acer, while there are 87 species of the genus Quercus. How many possible combinations, consisting of one member from each genus, are possible?
