(Use Excel) The quality manager believes there may be a relationship between the experience level of an inspector and whether a product passes or fails inspection. Inspection records were reviewed for 628 units of a particular product, and the number of units which passed and failed inspection was determined based on three inspector experience levels. The results are shown in the following table. Decision Experience Level Low (under 2 years) Medium (2-8 years) High (over 8 years) Pass 152 286 102 Fail 15 46 27 a. Specify the competing hypotheses to determine whether the inspector pass/fail decision depends on experience level. H0: Inspector pass/fail decision and experience level are independent; HA: Inspector pass/fail decision and experience level are dependent. H0: Inspector pass/fail decision and experience level are dependent; HA: Inspector pass/fail decision and experience level are independent. b. Calculate the value of the test statistic. (Round the intermediate calculations to at least 4 decimal places and final answer to 3 decimal places.) Test statistic c. Approximate the p-value. 0.025 Picture p-value < 0.05 0.05 Picture p-value < 0.10 0.01 Picture p-value < 0.025 p-value Picture 0.10 p-value < 0.01 d-1. At the 10% significance level, what is your conclusion? H0. At the 10% significance level, we conclude that inspection pass/fail and experience are dependent. d-2.

The following task does not involve writing program code: instead, you will be writing function signatures for hypothetical functions (you will be defining functions in subsequent tasks).

  1. For this task, you are presented with several 'hypothetical' functions. These aren't built-in Python functions: they are functions that you will have to define (i.e. implement, write) yourself later. however, you only need to write a signature for each hypothetical function listed here:
    1. toThePower(): takes two numbers e.g. x and y , and returns the value of (x to the power y). For example, toThePower(3,3) returns 27, and toThePower(-0.1,3) returns -0.001.
    2. quadruplicate(): takes a string, and returns a string consisting of three copies of that string concatenated together. For example, quadruplicate("na") returns "nananana", and quadruplicate("..?") returns "..?..?..?..?".
    3. subtract(): takes two numbers, and returns the difference between them. For example, subtract(10,3) returns 7, and subtract(2.2,5) returns -2.8.
    4. overlap(): We are not going to tell you exactly what it does, but we will give you a few examples: overlap("banana","analyze") returns 3 (not 4), overlap("abracadabra","abraham") returns 4 (not 5), overlap("foobar","red") returns 1, and overlap("foobar","bazinga") returns 0.
    5. multiplicate(): We are not going to tell you exactly what it does, but we will give you a few examples: multiplicate("x",5) returns "xxxxx", multiplicate("goo",3) returns "googoogoo", and multiplicate("never",0) returns "" (the empty string).

El Paso Water Utilities (EPWU) purchases surface water for treatment and distribution to EPWU customers from El Paso County Water Improvement District during the irrigation season. A new contract between the two entities resulted in a reduction in future price increases in the cost of the water from 10% per year to 5% per year for the next 20 years. If the cost of water next year (which is year 1 of the new contract) will be $530 per acre-ft. using an interest rate of 10% per year,

a) Determine the difference between present worth (in $/acre-ft) of the old and the new contracts (solve using both formula and spreadsheet functions).

b) If new contract also needs a future payment of $2,000 at year 20, what is the equivalent annual worth of the new contract? (solve using both table values and spreadsheet functions)

HORIZON, a national TV provider, reports that today’s typical digital cable customer pays about $75 which is the population mean per month. A customer group decides to sample ten customers of HORIZON to determine if the company’s information is correct. The following list represents the consumer group’s sample data.

Monthly digital cable bill (data measured in dollars)

89, 112, 69, 75, 88, 115, 175, 70, 65, 79

  1. a) Calculate the sample mean, median, mode and range to the nearest whole number.
  2. b) Calculate the difference between the sample mean monthly cable bill and HORIZON’s population mean.
  3. c) The consumer group decides to dispute the HORIZON statement if the difference between the sample mean and population mean is greater than 15 dollars. Does the consumer group have reason to dispute HORIZON’s report? Explain?
