1. Suppose we wanted to compare the somatic complaints (as measured on a scale known as the Physical Symptom Survey or PSS) of three groups of people: nonsmokers, smokers, and people who recently quit smoking. Using the following data for PSS scores, do a one-way ANOVA to test the hypothesis that the population means are equal:

What are the means for the three groups? Compute the sums of squares, degrees of freedom, and mean squares for these data. What is value of F? Using an alpha of .05, is the F statistically significant? Describe the results of the analyze.

Aircraft companies had very difficult times during the pandemic period. AHL, and OA have created some advantages for their loyal customers, especially for the Istanbul-Ankara flight. AHLprovides 900 points (flight miles) for each flight to its customers flying from Istanbul to Ankara. However, it gives 1000 (flight miles) extra points to more than 3 flights and 1350 (flight miles) to more than 6 flights within three months. While OA gives 1200 points (flight miles) for each flight, it gives 1500 (flight miles) extra points for every 5 flights within three months. While the ticket price of AHL company in Istanbul-ankara is 800 TL, the ticket price of OA is 600 TL.

For a person who wants to make an Istanbul-ankara flight 60 times in the next twelfe months, please create an integer programming model to maximize flight miles.

Warehousing Corp. owns a large warehouse that can be subdivided into numerous subsections by inserting removable wall. It leases out different portions of storage space to its customers based on their needs.

Manufacturing Corp. contracts with Warehousing Corp. to reserve 1,000 square feet of space to store excess inventory for a three-year period. The contract specifies that Manufacturing Corp.’s inventory will be stored in an identified location in the warehouse. However, Warehousing Corp. has the right to shift Manufacturing Corp.’s inventory to another location within its warehouse at its discretion, subject to the requirement to provide 1,000 square feet for the three-year period.

Warehousing Corp. frequently reorganizes its space to meet the needs of new contracts. The cost of relocating is low compared to the benefits of being able to accommodate as many customers as possible in the warehouse.

Does the contract explicitly or implicitly identify an asset to be used to fulfill the contract?

Freight claims processing can be a significant activity for organizations making frequent shipments, and effective handling of freight claims can be an important part of customer satisfaction from both the carriers’ and shippers’ viewpoints. There are three customers for the claims process that must also deal with the result of freight loss, damage, or delay.   

• A carrier, as a seller of transportation services, is concerned about the “shipper’s” (the carrier’s customers for their transportation services) perception of quality and timeliness.
• The shipper is concerned about the impact on the consignee, the customer for the goods.
• The shipper is also concerned about being a preferred shipper in the eyes of carriers.

Please respond to the following questions with your initial post to the discussion board.

1. Describe how a delay could cause “economic injury.”
2. Although freight loss, damage, or delay is a problem for all three parties, how can the handling of the claims process itself effect the satisfaction and perceptions of the shipper, the carrier, and the consignee?

You may wish to provide actual or hypothetical examples.

Gobblers, a small midwestern clothier, is considering fabricating a new line of men's pants. It needs some help understanding its current male customer base in order to better assess what sizes of pants to offer. The firm presently has demographic data on all 5,000 of its male customers. It has found that the average weight of all its male customers is 195 lbs with a standard deviation of 20 pounds. In addition, the average weight has been found to be normally distributed. Listed below you will find weight information on just 20 randomly sampled customers. Customer Weight 1 200 lbs 2 225 3 180 4 197 5 186 6 239 7 167 8 143 9 242 10 194 11 201 12 185 13 184 14 178 15 181 16 210 17 203 18 194 19 212 20 207
5.) Based upon the population data, what percentage of customers would be expected to weigh above 230 pounds? 6.)Basd upon the population data what is the weight value that you would expect 25 percent of the customers to exceed? 7.) Based upon the population data what is the weight level that you would expect 90% of the customers to exceed? 8.)based upon the population data what percentage of customers would be expected to weigh between 170 and 230 lbs?

A professor wants to determine the relationship between Middleterm Scores (X) and Final Scores (Y). The professor correlates the MiddleTerm Scores (X) with the Final Scores (Y) for all of his students. The data are presented below.
MiddleTerm Scores:
92, 91, 90, 89, 88, 87, 86, 85, 83, 81, 80, 80
Final Scores:
88, 87, 84, 84, 76, 75, 73, 72, 73, 74, 68, 82

16)What is the relationship between MiddleTerm Scores and Final Scores (Round to two decimal places)

19)What is the value of the observed test statistic (t) used to determine whether this relationship is significantly different from zero (Round to two decimal places)?  

20) Assuming that you want to minimize the probability of a Type I Error of the test and are interested in whether the relationship is positive or negative, what is the critical value used to compare the observed test statistic (t) in order to determine whether this relationship is significantly different from zero?
