A company claims that a new manufacturing process changes the mean amount of aluminum needed for cans and therefore changes the weight. Independent random samples of aluminum cans made by the old process and the new process are taken. The summary statistics are given below. Is there evidence at the 5% significance level (or 95% confidence level) to support the claim that the mean weight for all old cans is different than the mean weight for all new cans? Justify fully!

The Old process had a sample of size 25 with a mean of 0.504 and standard deviation of 0.019. The New process had a sample of size 25 with a mean of 0.495 and standard deviation of 0.021.

Language: Java

A function is said to have side effects if it changes something outside of its scope or does something other than return a value.

A void function is obviously intended to have side effects; since it doesn't return anything, it is expected to change something. On the other hand, if a function does return something, it is usually expected that it will have no side effects

In this lab, you will complete a method that is intended to have no side effects; you should be able to run this method as many times as you want on an object, with no difference in the result.

Problem Statement
Complete this function so that it returns a count of the number of times an object x of generic type T is found on a Stack.

(In this case, the stack is implemented with linked nodes, but that should be irrelevant to your code; your function should work the same with any implementation of a Stack).

When the method ends the Stack should store exactly the same data as at the beginning of the method. However, your function will need to alter the Stack data as it runs.

Changes in Financial Ratios: A goods manufacturing company is assessing the impact of the current economic conditions. Management is hoping to improve inventory turnover by 15%. They also expect the cost of goods sold to increase by 10% due to new safety protocols.

Part A. What % change in average inventory should they expect?

Part B. Additionally, management wishes to increase their dividend payout ratio by 6%. Analysts expect the earnings per share to increase by 2.5%. By what percent will dividends per share change?

Part C. Would it be a good decision for management to increase the dividend payout ratio given the change average inventory? Why or why not?
