In its Fuel Economy Guide for 2014 model vehicles, the Environmental Protection Agency gives data on 1134 vehicles. The combined city and highway gas mileage of these 1134 vehicles is approximately Normal with mean 22.2 miles per gallon (mpg) and standard deviation 5.2 mpg. (a) The 2014 Volkswagen Beetle with a four-cylinder 1.8 L engine and automatic transmission has combined gas milage of 28 mpg. What percent of all vehicles have better gas mileage than the Beetle? (b) How high must a 2014 vehicle’s gas milage be to fall in the top 5% of all vehicles? (c) The quintiles of any distribution are the values with cumulative proportions 0.20, 0.40, and 0.80. What are the quintiles of the distribution go gas mileage?

A small population of horse-like animals have been removed from a large population of the same creatures and moved to a small island many miles away. The environment of this island is slightly different from the mainland: temperatures are cooler, and the only food source is a fruit that turns bright red when ripe and is located higher up in the trees. The island is only a few square kilometers, and there are no natural enemies.

After many generations, you return back to the island and examine that the population has physically changed as a result of being moved to a new environment. Examine each of the possible alleles for the traits below.

Choose an allele for each trait that you believe the animals will possess and explain why you chose that answer.

One trait 3-4 sentences

Q1) On your own words, write a brief details

- should be consider focusing on CAGE framework to study the Cultural, Administrative, Geographic and Economic differences with respect to the Germany country.

This are some examples about each factors of CAGE framework

Cultural: - people`s language, values, behaviors and quality of life.

Administrative: - Rules and regulation related to the business in selected country.

Geographic Distance: - The size of the country, differences in climates, and nature of transportation and information networks. You can think of geographic distance as absolute, in terms of the miles or kilometers that separate a firm from another market or supplier.

Economic:- Income level, and the relative purchasing power and GDP of the country.

Note: if there are some factores required to a comparison with other country, so we can use (Oman Vs. Germany)

In 1997, XYZ Company purchased several acres of land for $1,000,000. In 2019, the Federal Highway Administration announced that it planned to build an interstate highway, with exit and entrance ramps to be located within a few miles of this property. Based on this information, the appraised value of the property on December 31, 2019, was $25 million.

1. At what value should XYZ Company report this land in its December 31, 2019, balance sheet? Why?
2. Which value is more relevant? Why?
3. Assume that during 2019 the Federal Highway Administration decided not to build the highway. Instead, the state decided to place a landfill adjacent to this property. This reduced the appraised value of the property to $100,000. At what value should XYZ Company report this land in its December 31, 2019, balance sheet? Why?

1. The Corporate Average Fuel Economy (CAFÉ) standards was originally set to reduce

America’s dependency on foreign oil by increasing fuel efficiency. How was the program

designed? How did different standards for different vehicle types affect the goals and

outcomes of the CAFE program?

2. While fuel taxes and fuel economy standards can both be effective in increasing the

number of miles per gallon in new vehicles, clearly explain why fuel taxes are superior

means of reducing emissions from automobiles.

3. Using demand and supply graphs for road space (where Q = quantity of road space and

P= price of roadspace), clearly explain road congestion. Secondly, show how an increase

in the supply of roadspace does not permanently solve the road congestion problem.

1. To illustrate the effects of driving under the influence (DUI) of alcohol, a police officer brought a DUI simulator to a local high school. Student reaction time in an emergency was measured with unimpaired vision and also while wearing a pair of special goggles to simulate the effects of alcohol on vision. For a random sample of nine teenagers, the time (in seconds) required to bring the vehicle to a stop from a speed of 60 miles per hour was recorded.

Test the claim that there is a no difference in braking time with impaired vision and normal vision at the 0.05 level of significance

-Is there any way of solving this on stat crunch

Please evaluate this question with every detail step and explanation.

(No computer output is accepted) The mpg (miles per gallon) for all cars has a normal distribution with mean 100 km/L and standard deviation of 15 km/L.

a) Calculate the probability that any randomly selected car has an amount of mpg greater than 120 km/L.

b) Calculate the probability that any randomly selected car has an amount of mpg less than 95 km/L.

c) Calculate the probability that any randomly selected car has an amount of mpg between 93 km/L and 110 km/L.

d) A car is identified as a “best quality” if it is included in the top 2% of all mpgs. Find the minimum mpg needed to be qualified as “best quality”.

On October 17, 2007, the classified ads on the web site of The Seattle Times listed the following 13 used Toyota Prius automobiles for sale; the data set below shows the year, color, mileage (in miles) and asking price (in U.S. dollars) for each car:

year     color      mileage     price
2006     green        17043     25995
2007     gray         12628     24980
2005     maroon       24039     24885
2005     silver       48226     23995

2005     black       103126     16995

1. compute the correlation between mileage and price:

A realtor studies the relationship between the size of a house (in square feet) and the property taxes (in $) owed by the owner. The table below shows a portion of the data for 20 homes in a suburb 60 miles outside of New York City. [You may find it useful to reference the t table.]

a-1. Calculate the sample correlation coefficient r_xy. (Round intermediate calculations to at least 4 decimal places and final answers to 4 decimal places.)

4. To illustrate the effects of driving under the influence (DUI) of alcohol, a police officer brought a DUI simulator to a local high school. Student reaction time in an emergency was measured with unimpaired vision and also while wearing a pair of special goggles to simulate the effects of alcohol on vision. For a random sample of nine teenagers, the time (in seconds) required to bring the vehicle to a stop from a speed of 60 miles per hour was recorded.

Test the claim that there is a no difference in braking time with impaired vision and normal vision at the 0.05 level of significance
