QUESTION SEVEN a) A cigarette manufacturing firm distributes two brands of cigarettes. Two random samples are selected and it is found that 56 of 200 smokers prefer brand Α and that 29 of 150 smokers prefer brandΒ . Can we conclude at the 0.05 level of significance that the percentage of smokers who prefer brand Α exceeds that of brand Β by more than 10%?

b) An auditor claims that 10% of invoices for a certain company are incorrect. To test this claim a random sample of 200 invoices are checked and 24 are found to be incorrect. Test at the 1% significant level to see if the auditor’s claim is supported by the sample evidence.

c) The personnel department of a company developed an aptitude test for screening potential employees. The person who devised the test asserted that the mean mark attained would be 100. The following results were obtained with a random sample of applicants:

x = 96,   s= 5.2,   n=13

Test this hypothesis against the alternative that the mean mark is less than 100, at the 1% significance level.

46) Identify the developmental stages of adulthood, two (2) major activities related to each stage and 1 example of variation in health needs and ADLs. Developmental stage of adulthood:

46.1) Early adult period (20 to 40 years)

46.2) Middle adulthood (40 to 65 years)

46.3) Older adult (older than 65 years of age)

Please very super breifly, aproximately 30-50 words, explain below elements in regards to the above senarios seperately for each one of them on each one of the senarios:

Major activities?

Field crickets have a mean chip rate of 60 chirps per second with a standard deviation
of 40 chirps per second. It has been hypothesized that the chirp rate of a field cricket is
related to its nutritional status. In order to test this, a group collected 22 field crickets and
fed them a high protein diet for 8 days. After the eight days it was found that the mean
chirp rate of the 22 test crickets was 85 chirps per second.

a) Find a 95% confident estimation for the mean chirp rate of field crickets on a high
protein diet.(Assuming a normal distribution)

b) Does this provide sufficient evidence to say that a high protein diet increases chirp
rate? Use α = 0.05.

Seven years ago, you started a crosstown delivery service. The service is an environmentally friendly business and, given all the traffic congestion, you are also the fastest service in the city since your entire crew are bicyclists. You have two types of service. You have a small parcel service for anything that is flat and measures less than 11x17. You have a package service using a 100 lb. capacity bike trailer for anything weighing up to 10 lbs. As a way to introduce the new package service when you implemented the small package service, you charged the same price for packages as parcels. You are now wondering if you should charge different prices for the parcel and package service.

Complete the table below for the parcels market.

  1. create a program that will verify a user's login credentials. The program should prompt the user to enter his/her username and password at the keyboard. Then it should read the data from a data file named "login.txt". The file "login.txt" will contain a list of 3 valid usernames and passwords to verify the login information supplied by a user.  If the username and password entered by the user matches one of the sets read from the file, the program should print a message "You have successfully logged in...welcome!!" If not, then the program should print a message "Sorry, incorrect login information. Access denied".

The file "login.txt" should contain the following lines of text:

jramerez WhatsUp22!!

kanderson HeyDude23!

mjones ChillOut24!!

Your program should produce output similar to the following (here are two sample runs, one where login failed and one where it succeeded):

__________________________________________________________________________________________________________

Please enter your username and password seperated by a space:

asaprocky Hello!234

Sorry, incorrect login information. Access denied.

_____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________

Please enter your username and password:

kanderson HeyDude23!

"You have successfully logged in... Welcome!!

_____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________

**Hints:  

  • Create the  file "login.txt" with a text editor such that it contains the 3 lines of data given above. Save the file to your project folder in your eclipse workspace.
  • Use 2 Scanner objects, one to read from the keyboard, and one to read from the file "login.txt"

Starting today, a series of annual deposits is made into an account offering 8 percent compounded annually.

Starting today, a series of annual deposits is made into an account offering 8 percent compounded annually. The first deposit is $2,000. The second deposit is 2 percent smaller than the first, that is, $2,000 (0.98)^1. The third deposit is 2 percent smaller than the second, that is, $2,000 (0.98)^2. This pattern of declining deposits, with each deposit being 2 percent smaller than the previous one, continues until the last deposit is made at the end of year 40, that is, 40 years from today. What will be the balance in the account at the end of year 40, immediately after the last deposit is made?

There are two types of potential borrowers in equal numbers among the population. All have projects that require an investment of $100, which must be borrowed. Type A projects yield a gross return of $130 in one year with probability .8; they fail and yield 0 with probability .2. Type B projects yield a gross rate of return of $250 with probability .4, but fail, yielding zero, with probability .6. Potential lenders require a gross return of $102 on $100 loaned. With symmetric information, who will get financing and why? Now suppose the project expected returns are private information. Lenders cannot distinguish one type from another. Will any lending occur? Why or why not? Explain in detail.
