7. Use the following information to work Problems (a) and (b). Show all your workings. Suppose that in response to huge job losses in the New Zealand textile industry, the government of New Zealand imposes a tariff of 100 percent on imports of textiles from China.

  1. Explain how the tariff on textiles will change the price that New Zealand pays for textiles, the number of textiles imported, and the quantity of textiles produced in New Zealand.
  2. Explain how the New Zealand and Chinese gains from trade will change. Who in New Zealand will lose and who will gain?

A newsgroup is interested in constructing a 90% confidence interval for the difference in the proportions of Texans and New Yorkers who favor a new Green initiative. Of the 506 randomly selected Texans surveyed, 436 were in favor of the initiative and of the 525 randomly selected New Yorkers surveyed, 459 were in favor of the initiative.

a. With 90% confidence the difference in the proportions of Texans and New Yorkers who favor a new Green initiative is between _______ (round to 3 decimal places) and ________ (round to 3 decimal places).

b. If many groups of 506 randomly selected Texans and 525 randomly selected New Yorkers were surveyed, then a different confidence interval would be produced from each group. About ___________ percent of these confidence intervals will contain the true population proportion of the difference in the proportions of Texans and New Yorkers who favor a new Green initiative and about _________________ percent will not contain the true population difference in proportions.

A city has just added 110 new female recruits to its police force. The city will provide a pension to each new hire who remains with the force until retirement. In addition, if the new hire is married at the time of her retirement, a second pension will be provided for her husband. A consulting actuary makes the following assumptions: (i) Each new recruit has a 0.3 probability of remaining with the police force until retirement. (ii) Given that a new recruit reaches retirement with the police force, the probability that she is not married at the time of retirement is 0.35. (iii) The number of pensions that the city will provide on behalf of each new hire is independent of the number of pensions it will provide on behalf of any other new hire. Determine the probability that the city will provide at most 62 pensions to the 110 new hires and their husbands. Enter your answer as a number accurate to 4 decimal places.

A newsgroup is interested in constructing a 90% confidence interval for the difference in the proportions of Texans and New Yorkers who favor a new Green initiative. Of the 582 randomly selected Texans surveyed, 428 were in favor of the initiative and of the 569 randomly selected New Yorkers surveyed, 456 were in favor of the initiative.

. With 90% confidence the difference in the proportions of Texans and New Yorkers who favor a new Green initiative is between (round to 3 decimal places) and (round to 3 decimal places).

b. If many groups of 582 randomly selected Texans and 569 randomly selected New Yorkers were surveyed, then a different confidence interval would be produced from each group. About percent of these confidence intervals will contain the true population proportion of the difference in the proportions of Texans and New Yorkers who favor a new Green initiative and about percent will not contain the true population difference in proportions.

a) Change the right-hand-side value of one of the constraints. Be sure that, the updated
tableau is infeasible, and you are applying Dual Simplex Method. (Find a change that will
make the new tableau infeasible.)
b) Change the objective function coefficient of one of the decision variables. Be sure that,
the updated tableau is non-optimal, and you are applying Simplex Method. (Find a
change that will make the new tableau non-optimal.)
c) Find the validity range for one of the constraint’s right-hand-side value.
d) Find the optimality range for one of the decision variable’s objective function coefficient.
e) Add a new ≥ constraint into the model. Be sure that, the new constraint is not satisfied by
the current optimal solution and you are applying Dual Simplex Method. (Add a ≥
constraint that will make the new tableau infeasible.)
f) Add a new decision variable into the model. Be sure that, the new tableau is non-optimal,
and you are applying Simplex Method. (Add a new decision variable that will make the
new tableau non-optimal.)

Change the instructionLabel to ask the user to enter a numeric value into the textField and click the button to convert the entered value from kilometers to miles (1.609344 km = 1 mile).

When the actionButton on the form is clicked, ActionWindow should take the value entered in the textField, convert it from kilometers to miles, and display the result in the resultField.
