A data set is provided, entitled oldfaithful_asst, on the duration and height of the Old Faithful geyser in the Yellowstone National Park.

1. Construct a scatterplot using Excel or any software (SPSS or Minitab) between the variables “duration” and “height.” Please title the graph “Scatterplot 1 Old Faithful” and create labels for both axes.
2. There seems to be a an outlier in the data set. Although an outlier is not a detriment to the data analysis, as part of an exercise, identify the outlier and delete it (simply erase its value, do not replace with zero).

• Show the new (second) scatterplot and title the graph “Scatterplot 2 Old Faithful”
• Describe the pattern that emerges. What might this relationship imply?

3. Compute the correlation coefficient between the two variables and interpret this correlation. Refer to both the strength and direction of the correlation in your interpretation. Also interpret the correlation in terms of r-squared (coefficient of determination).
4. Conduct a regression to predict duration of an eruption using height and interpret the sample slope coefficient in words.
5. What is the predicted duration for an eruption that is 115?

In the context of this course, you will be asked to address the issues/questions below for Marriott International, Inc. (MAR), www.marriott.com. When addressing the issues/questions, be sure to do so in the context of this course and Marriott. You have been appointed as the special assistant to the Chief Executive Officer (CEO), Arne Sorenson, who has asked you to address the following five situations:

(a) A fellow MBA alum from Lynn University, who now works in Admission at Lynn University would like to give each MBA student a benefit, which is programmed into the Lynn University ID card. This benefit would allow the student one night each month, depending on availability, for a room at the Marriott Courtyard for $40. Normally the room rate is $100 and the full cost of a night’s stay is $50. Discuss whether or not this would be feasible, i.e. Marriott is able to do this transaction without it being a donation.

(b) Marriott currently buys its ice machines from a manufacturer in China. A representative from a company in Vietnam is offering to sell them for 20% less than cost from the manufacturer in China. Discuss the issues that you would consider in deciding whether or not to accept this offer.

(c) The CEO wishes to develop an incentive plan for the hotel managers.

Before this is put into place, the CEO wishes you to make sure that budgeting

in the hotels is done correctly. He has asked you to submit a document discussing

the key points that you have learned in MBA 640. Be as thorough as possible.

(d) Marriott has only used absorption costing. The CEO has asked you

to explain the merits of using variable costing under certain circumstances.

(e) The CEO has asked you to explain how target costing/pricing would be used in

Marriott’s pricing policies.

Bussines Law:

1. A is Trading and Tourism Company.
2. B is the owner of a Building

A interred with B in to an investment Contract where A will take the building as investment which is owned by B and will turn to Hotel. It was agreed that A prior to invest will take the approval from B on the plans and drawings. A sent the plans and the drawing to B for his approval.

Systems analysis project 10: can you answer the 4 questions at the task section, thank you.
Personal Trainer, Inc. owns and operates fitness centers in a dozen Midwestern cities. The centers have done well, and the company is planning an international expansion by opening a new “supercenter” in the Toronto area. Personal Trainer’s president, Cassia Umi, hired an IT consultant, Susan Park, to help develop an information system for the new facility. During the project, Susan will work closely with Gray Lewis, who will manage the new operation.
Background
Susan and Gray finished their work on user interface, input, and output design. They developed a user-centered design that would be flexible and easy to learn. Now Susan turned her attention to the architecture for the new system. Susan wanted to consider their own organization and culture, enterprise resource planning, total cost of ownership, scalability, Web integration, legacy systems, processing methods, security issues, and corporate portal. She also needed to select a network plan, or topology, that would dictate the physical cabling and network connections, or consider a wireless network. When all these tasks were completed, she would submit a system design specification for approval.
Tasks:
1. What would be the advantages of selecting an Internet-based architecture for the Personal Trainer’s system?

2. If Personal Trainer wants to increase its Internet marketing efforts, what advice could you offer? Perform research to find out more about the topic of Web-based marketing before you answer Gray.

3. What software and hardware infrastructure will be necessary to ensure Personal Trainer can process point of sale transactions?

4. Prepare an outline for a system design specification and describe the contents of each section

Serum glutamic oxaloacetic transaminase (SGOT) is an enzyme that elevates when the heart muscle is damaged. Assume that the population distribution of SGOT levels in adults with healthy hearts is known to be normally distributed with ? = 18.5 units/L and ? = 13.2 units/L.

a. What proportion of adults with a healthy heart have an SGOT level of above 25 units/L? (0.5pts)

b. For a sample size of ? = 40 from this population, what would be the sampling distribution of the mean SGOT level? Include the type of distribution and the values of the defining parameters. (0.5pts)

c. Now suppose you collected a sample of ? = 40 adults who recently underwent heart surgery. If the sample mean SGOT level you got was above 25 units/L, do you think that the SGOT level of people who have recently undergone heart surgery actually has a distribution with ? = 18.5 units/L? Why or why not?

For each of the following scenarios, state the appropriate null hypothesis and indicate whether the result corresponds to a Type-I error, a Type-II error, or no error. Use α=0.05. (1pt each)

a. A new method of relaxation training, which includes mediation and biofeedback, is reported to be successful at reducing high blood pressure, even though it doesn’t actually have any effect on blood pressure.

b. A study that tested if there was any relationship between a person’s heart rate and consuming a small amount of caffeine resulted in a p-value of 0.21. In truth, there is no relationship between heart rate and caffeine in this population.

c. Park officials tested if new design of bear-proof trash bins is more successful at keeping bears out than the bins they currently use. Fact is that the new design is actually more successful than the current one. Their test resulted in a p-value of 0.08.
