What is the burden rate? What is the direct rate? What are the most common burden rates? What does it mean when a burden rate is empirical? Provide the full burden rate for a labor resource at an hourly rate of 43.25 given a Direct labor overhead rate of 80%, general and Administrative Rate of 15%, Profit Rate of 25%, and a Fee rate of 3%? What is the multiplying Factor? Make sure you define all terms and provide all calculation

What is probability, what can it values be, and what those values can mean (i.e. unusual, rare, likely, impossible, certain, uncertain). Also, what are the differences between empirical probability and theoretical probability. Next what is the addition rule and the multiplication rule. How can you tell the difference between them and when to use them? Also, what do the terms mutually exclusive/disjoint and independence and dependence events mean? How do they differ?

HCN forms when synthetic fibers containing Orlon® or Acrilan® burn. Acrilan® has an empirical formula of CH2CHCN, so HCN is 50.9% of the formula by mass. A rug in the laboratory measures 12.0× 12.0 ft and contains 30.0 oz of Acrilan® fibers per square yard of carpet. If the rug burns, what mass of HCN will be generated in the room? Assume that the yield of HCN from the fibers is 20.0% and that the carpet is 41.0 % consumed.

Assume X ~ ? (10, 4) where ? implies unknown.

1. What is the (approximate) distribution of x if the sample size is 100? Briefly discuss the theorem underlying your answer.

2. What happens to the variance of x as the sample size increases? Draw a diagram and explain.

3. What two values of x (symmetric around the population mean) contain a) 75% and b) 95% of the distribution? Draw a diagram. Relate your answer to b) to the empirical rule.

Here is a sample dataset: 126.3 258.9 298.4 345.2 89.2 459.2 688.1 441.3 459.2 487.1 647.2 784.9 647.2 675.5

(1) Draw a stem - and - leaf display for this dataset.

(2) What is the mean, median, mode?

(3) What is the range, variance, standard deviation?

(4) What is Q1, Q3?

(5) Is the smallest and largest outliers? Why?

(6) What is the percentage falling within 1 standard deviation? Does it satisfy the Empirical Rule?

The recent call for Corporate Governance in the financial institution industry aligns with securing the interest of all stakeholders of the modern corporation. From the financial management perspective, in particular, corporate governance improves financial performance and hence shareholder value maximisation. Empirical evidence in Ghana and beyond, points to the fact that corporate governance, cannot guarantee shareholder value maximisation.

Required                                                          

Provide three arguments for and three against corporate governance in improving financial performance of corporate entities.

Using the empirical​ rule, find each approximate percentage below.

The combustion of 0.4196 g of hydrocarbon releases 17.55 kJ of heat. The masses of the products are 1.418 g of carbon dioxide (CO₂) and 0.290 g of water (H₂O). The standard formation enthalpy for CO₂(g) and H₂O(l) are −393.5 kJ/mol and −285.8 kJ/mol, respectively.

(a) What is the empirical formula of the compound?



(b) If the approximate molar mass of the compound is 76 g/mol, calculate the standard enthalpy of formation.

For patients who have been given a diabetes test, blood-glucose readings are approximately normally distributed with mean 128 mg/dl and a standard deviation 8 mg/dl. Suppose that a sample of 3 patients will be selected and the sample mean blood-glucose level will be computed. Enter answers rounded to three decimal places.

According to the empirical rule, in 95 percent of samples the SAMPLE MEAN blood-glucose level will be between the lower-bound of _________ and the upper-bound of ______
