12. The data below shows the annual salaries​ (in millions) and the number of viewers​ (in millions) of eight television actors and actresses. Construct a​ scatterplot, find the value of the linear correlation coefficient​ r, and find the​ P-value using a=0.05. Is there sufficient evidence to conclude that there is a linear correlation between the two​ variables?

Salary_(x)            Viewers_(y)

91           17

13           4.7

15           5.3

30           1.5

10           10.6

5              9.8

7              13.2

4              4.6

Construct the scatterplot.

The linear correlation coefficient r is _____

(Round to three decimal places as​ needed.)

The test statistic t is _____

(Round to three decimal places as​ needed.)

The​ P-value is ______

(Round to three decimal places as​ needed.)

Because the​ P-value is (greater,less) than the significance level 0.05​, there (is not, is) sufficient evidence to support the claim that there is a linear correlation between selling price​ (in hundred​ thousands) and the list price​ (in hundred​ thousands) of homes sold for a significance level of a=0.05.

Suppose that in a large population of students, the mean amount of sleep the previous night was μ = 7.15 hours and the standard deviation was σ = 1.5 hours. Consider randomly selected samples of n = 240 students.

(a) What is the value of the mean of the sampling distribution of possible sample means?
Mean =  

(b) Calculate the standard deviation, s.d., of the sampling distribution of possible sample means. (Round your answer to three decimal places.)

s.d.(x)

(c) Use the Empirical Rule to find values that fill in the blanks at the end of the following sentence. (Round your answers to three decimal places.)

For 68% of all randomly selected samples of n = 240 students, the mean amount of sleep the previous night will be between  and  hours.


(d) Use the Empirical Rule to fill in the blanks at the end of the following sentence. (Round your answers to three decimal places.)

For 95% of all randomly selected samples of n = 240 students, the mean amount of sleep will be between  and  hours.

Genetic analysis has shown that three recessive genes d (dwarf), e (enlarged trunk) and f (fine leaf) are all found on chromosome #1 of apple. When a plant that was heterozygous for each of these markers was testcrossed, the following 1000 progenies were obtained:

wild type- 130 (+++)

fine leaf- 19 (++f)

enlarged trunk- 2 (+e+)

enlarged trunk, fine leaf – 350 (+ef)

dwarf -362 (d++)

dwarf, fine leaf -1 (d+f)

dwarf, enlarged trunk -16 (de+)

dwarf, enlarged trunk, fine leaf- 120 (def)

a) Determine the central gene.

b) Calculate recombination frequencies between each of these three pairs of genes.

c) Draw a genetic map for the location of these 3 genes on chromosome #1 of apple. Show the map distances (cM or m.u.) between each loci.

d) Determine the interference among crossover events within the region of the chromosome containing the three genes.

Managers are required to make many tough decisions over the course of a work day. One of the tough decisions a manager may be faced with is the decision to drop an existing customer from their portfolio.

Some companies refuse to drop customers (including non-profitable customers) in the hopes that these unprofitable customers will become profitable in the future.

Other companies do not want unprofitable customers impacting their bottom line year after year and choose to drop them.

In your opinion, when should unprofitable customers be dropped (if at all)? Provide personal examples or research to help support your arguments.

The average number of customers visiting the science center was 800 per day last year and the populations standard deviation is 250 customers per day.

1. In a span of a month, i.e. 30 days, write out the distribution of the sample mean

2. What is the probability that the sample mean is over 275 customers per day in a month?

3. What is the probability that the sample mean is less than 275 customers per day in a month?

4. A good month means the average number of customers is more than the average of 95% of the other month. Determine the criteria of a good month.

Assume a standard customer, Johnny Rose, at a shop will spend 20 mins in the shop. The shop has 4 customers on average and service time is random with known distribution. The shop has 4 customers on average and service time is random with known distribution. How many customers does the shop serve during a typical open hour?

Now let's say the shop would like to decrease the average number of customers at any point, but assume it cannot control/influence arrival patterns of customers or service rate. How can this be achieved? Support with calculations and clear principles.
