You are given a sample of several compounds to separate by paper chromatography. You draw a pencil line exactly 1.0 cm from the bottom of the paper, and place a spot of sample on it. You dry the sample, then develop it in a solvent.

When the chromatogram is taken out of the solvent, the paper is wet up to 9.1 cm from the bottom of the sheet. The compound you are interested in shows up as a spot 7.1 cm from the bottom of the paper.

Calculate the following:

In the same time, how far did the solvent move?

What is the Rf factor for the compund?

  • Think about some of your friends and what you have discovered by visiting their homes. Do they buy different things than you do? If so, why? How might a company distinguish you from them in terms of its targeting?
  • Is it always harder to find new customers than it is to retain old ones or does it depend on the business you're in?
  • Does one-to-one marketing have to be expensive? How can small organizations interact with their customers in a cost-effective way?
  • Are large companies better off using multi segment strategies and small companies better off using niche strategies? Why or why not?
  • How have companies such as JCPenney and Sears tried to change their position (reposition their stores)?
  • Do you think hotel companies have segmented the market too much and confused customers?

Round your answer to 3 decimal places.

b) A hotel chain wants to estimate the mean number of rooms rented daily in a given month. The population of rooms rented daily is assumed to be normally distributed for each month with a standard deviation of 240 rooms. During February, a sample of 25 days has a sample mean of 370 rooms.

What is the upper confidence limit (UCL) of the 99% confidence interval for the mean number of rooms rented daily in a given month? Round your answer to the nearest whole number.
