A banking executive studying the role of trust in creating customer advocates has determined that 43 % of banking customers have complete trust, 49 % of banking customers have moderate trust, and 8% have minimal or no trust in their primary financial institution. Of the banking customers that have complete trust, 68% are very likely to recommend their primary financial institution; of the banking customers that have moderate trust, 21 % are very likely to recommend their primary financial institution; and of the banking customers that have minimal or no trust, 2 % are very likely to recommend their primary financial institution. Complete parts (a) and (b) below. (Round to three decimal places as needed.) a. Compute the probability that if a customer indicates he or she is very likely to recommend his or her primary financial institution, the banking customer also has complete trust. b. Compute the probability that a banking customer is very likely to recommend his or her primary financial institution.

A plane delivers two types of cargo between two destinations. Each crate of cargo I is 3 cubic feet in volume and 137 pounds in weight, and earns $30 in revenue. Each crate of cargo II is 3 cubic feet in volume and 274 pounds in weight, and earns $45 in revenue. The plane has available at most 270 cubic feet and 14,248 pounds for the crates. Finally, at least twice the number of crates of I as II must be shipped. Find the number of crates of each cargo to ship in order to maximize revenue. Find the maximum revenue.

We assume that our wages will increase as we gain experience and become more valuable to our employers. Wages also increase because of inflation. By examining a sample of employees at a given point in time, we can look at part of the picture. How does length of service (LOS) relate to wages? The data here (data1.dat) is the LOS in months and wages for 60 women who work in Indiana banks. Wages are yearly total income divided by the number of weeks worked. We have multiplied wages by a constant for reasons of confidentiality.
(a) Plot wages versus LOS. Consider the relationship and whether or not linear regression might be appropriate. (Do this on paper. Your instructor may ask you to turn in this graph.) (b) Find the least-squares line. Summarize the significance test for the slope. What do you conclude?
Wages = + LOS
t =
P =
(c) State carefully what the slope tells you about the relationship between wages and length of service. This answer has not been graded yet.
(d) Give a 95% confidence interval for the slope. ( , )
