National Co. manufactures and sells three products: red, white, and blue. Their unit sales prices are red, $55; white, $85; and blue, $110. The per unit variable costs to manufacture and sell these products are red, $40; white, $60; and blue, $80. Their sales mix is reflected in a ratio of 5:4:2 (red:white:blue). Annual fixed costs shared by all three products are $150,000. One type of raw material has been used to manufacture all three products. The company has developed a new material of equal quality for less cost. The new material would reduce variable costs per unit as follows: red, by $10; white, by $20; and blue, by $10. However, the new material requires new equipment, which will increase annual fixed costs by $20,000.

A research center is interested in investigating about the height and age of children who are between 5 to 9 years old. In order to do this, a sample of 15 children is selected and the data is given below.

a.. Develop a scatter chart with age as the independent variable. What does the scatter chart indicate about the relationship between the height and age of children?

b. Use the data to develop an estimated regression equation that could be used to estimate the height based on the age. What is the estimated regression model? Round the results to 3 decimal places.

c. How much of the variation in the sample values of height does the model estimated in part (c)? Explain.

d. What is the predicted value of Y (height in inches) for a 6-year old? Develop a 95% confidence interval for the predicted value.

e. Interpret the standard error for this problem

f. State the hypothesis for the significance F and test the hypothesis.

g. State the hypothesis for the significance of the independent variable and test the hypothesis.

Considering what you have learned about the effects of drugs (legal or not) on the brain, have you changed your ideas about drug use? What is your current attitude about the use of drugs? If you were to tell your younger brother, sister, cousin, neighbor or anyone else about whom you care about using drugs, what would you say?
