QUESTION 16

The stereotype image of Neandertal as a “brutish, ignorant caveman”  is based on:

his large physical size and stocky, muscular build

an early Neandertal skeleton of a crippled, hunched-over individual

his thick-boned skull and skeleton, and his physical strength

all of the above

1 points   

QUESTION 17

The short, muscular bodies of many Neanderthal populations, with short arms and legs,
             may indicate that they lived:

basically sedentary lives with little activity

in cold climates

in hot climates

lives centered around plant and animal domestication

all of the above

1 points   

QUESTION 18

The African Replacement Model (arguing that modern Homo sapiens
first appeared in              one place, and then spread out to other parts of the world) suggests that modern Homo sapiens:

evolved in Africa and migrated into the rest of the world replacing all other populations

evolved in Africa and migrated directly in to Americas

evolved in Europe and migrated to Africa

evolved locally in Europe, Africa, and Asia from populations of archaic humans

1 points   

QUESTION 19

The Multiregional Evolution Model (which argues that modern Homo sapiens could have
            evolved/appeared in several different parts of the world) states that modern Homo sapiens:

evolved in Africa and migrated into the rest of the world

evolved only in northern and eastern Europe and migrated into the rest of the world

evolved locally in Europe, Africa, and Asia from population of archaic Homo sapiens

evolved in North, Central, and South America and migrated into the rest of the world

Variable Names: Year = year of manufacture, Cruise = best cruise speed (knots indicated air speed) at 65%-75% power, TotalHP = total horsepower (both engines if twin), NumBlades = number of propeller blades, Turbo = 1 if turbocharged, 0 otherwise

Using Cruise as the response variable and the other variables as predictor variables, use Minitab to perform the necessary regression calculations. Write a concise report answering the following questions. Insert tables and graphs in your report as appropriate.

1.      Use Minitab to perform multiple regression.   Use Cruise as the dependent variable, and the other variables, (Year, TotalHp, NumBlades, and Turbo) as predictor variables.

2.      Is multicollinearity a problem? Support your answer.

3.      Is the model significant? Support your answer. What does this tell you?

4.      Find the sample regression equation and interpret the coefficients in terms of the problem.

5.      Find and interpret the coefficient of determination.

6.      Test each regression coefficient for significance and interpret the results.

7. Which variable is the indicator (dummy) variable? Give and compare the sample regression equations for both levels of the dummy variable.

8.      Give a 95% confidence interval for average cruise speed for all airplanes manufactured in 1990, with 600 horsepower, 3 blades, and turbocharged. Interpret your interval. Give and interpret a 95% prediction interval using the same values.

9.      Examine the residual plots and discuss.

Cruise Company produces a part that is used in the manufacture of one of its products. The unit manufacturing costs of this part, assuming a production level of 6,000 units, are as follows:

Direct materials

$4.00

Direct labour

$4.00

Variable manufacturing overhead

$3.00

Fixed manufacturing overhead

$4.00

Total cost

$15.00

The fixed overhead costs are unavoidable.

 

  1. Assuming Cruise Company can purchase 6,000 units of the part from Suri Company for $13 each, and the facilities currently used to make the part could be rented out to another manufacturer for $24,000 a year, what should Cruise Company do?

    1. Make the part and save $6.00 per unit.

    2. Make the part and save $2.00 per unit.

    3. Buy the part and save $2.00 per unit.

    4. Buy the part and save $4.00 per unit.

 

  1. Assume Cruise Company can purchase 6,000 units of the part from Suri Company for $13.00 each, and the facilities currently used to make the part could be used to manufacture 6,000 units of another product that would have an $7 per unit contribution margin. If no additional fixed costs would be incurred, what should Cruise Company do?

    1. Make the new product and buy the part to earn an extra $5.00 per unit contribution to profit.

    2. Make the new product and buy the part to earn an extra $6.00 per unit contribution to profit.

    3. Continue to make the part to earn an extra $2.00 per unit contribution to profit.

    4. Continue to make the part to earn an extra $5.00 per unit contribution to profit.

The one-time fling! Have you ever purchased an article of clothing (dress, sports jacket, etc.), worn the item once to a party, and then returned the purchase? This is called a one-time fling. About 5% of all adults deliberately do a one-time fling and feel no guilt about it! In a group of six adult friends, what is the probability of the following? (Round your answers to three decimal places.)

(a) no one has done a one-time fling


(b) at least one person has done a one-time fling


(c) no more than two people have done a one-time fling

The college student senate is sponsoring a spring break Caribbean cruise raffle. The proceeds are to be donated to the Samaritan Center for the Homeless. A local travel agency donated the cruise, valued at $2000. The students sold 2714 raffle tickets at $5 per ticket.

What is the probability that Kevin will not win the cruise? (Round your answer to five decimal places.)


(b) Expected earnings can be found by multiplying the value of the cruise by the probability that Kevin will win. What are Kevin's expected earnings? (Round your answer to two decimal places.)

A Canadian professor accepted a two-year teaching assignment at a South American university. Despite the professor’s guidelines for appropriate classroom conduct that had been conveyed at the first class meeting, students continued to come to class 20–30 minutes late. In addition, instead of quietly taking a seat, they came to the front of the class and apologized to the professor and to the other students for the tardiness. Often the reasons they gave for arriving late were related to family problems. Explain the cultural differences involved in this situation.
