A study of depression and exercise was conducted. A total of 5 groups were used: each group differs by the extent to which group members exercise. A depression rating (scale: 1-100, a continuous variable) was given to all 1410 participants in the sample. An incompleted ANOVA table is provided below. What is the obtained F (i.e., value in Cell [8])?

EXPECTED RETURNS

Stocks A and B have the following probability distributions of expected future returns:

1. Calculate the expected rate of return, r_B, for Stock B (r_A = 12.80%.) Do not round intermediate calculations. Round your answer to two decimal places.
   %

2. Calculate the standard deviation of expected returns, σ_A, for Stock A (σ_B = 18.87%.) Do not round intermediate calculations. Round your answer to two decimal places.
   %

3. Now calculate the coefficient of variation for Stock B. Round your answer to two decimal places.

4. Is it possible that most investors might regard Stock B as being less risky than Stock A?  

   1. If Stock B is more highly correlated with the market than A, then it might have a lower beta than Stock A, and hence be less risky in a portfolio sense.
   2. If Stock B is more highly correlated with the market than A, then it might have the same beta as Stock A, and hence be just as risky in a portfolio sense.
   3. If Stock B is less highly correlated with the market than A, then it might have a lower beta than Stock A, and hence be less risky in a portfolio sense.
   4. If Stock B is less highly correlated with the market than A, then it might have a higher beta than Stock A, and hence be more risky in a portfolio sense.
   5. If Stock B is more highly correlated with the market than A, then it might have a higher beta than Stock A, and hence be less risky in a portfolio sense.

(1) American ladybugs have an average adult length of 1 cm with a known standard deviation of 0.2 cm. The population of American ladybugs in Raleigh was around 1914000 last spring. Assume a normal distribution for the lengths of adult American ladybugs.

Your niece asks you what's the probability of a random ladybug in Raleigh being bigger than 1.5 cm. Is it appropriate to calculate this probability?

Select one: a. Yes.

b. No, because the population distribution is skewed.

c. No, because the sample size is less than 30.

d. No, because the empirical rule is violated.

(2)Regardless of your answer to the previous question, calculate this probability using a normal distribution. Report your answer to four decimal places.

(3)

Although it would be difficult in practice, assume we are able to randomly sample 20 American ladybugs. What's the sampling distribution of the sample mean of these ladybugs?

Select one:

a. A t-distribution with 19 degrees of freedom

b. The sampling distribution is unknown because relevant assumptions are violated.

c. A normal distribution with mean 1 and standard deviation 0.2.

d. A normal distribution with mean 1 and standard deviation 0.045.

(4) Calculate the probability of observing an average American ladybug length between 0.95 cm and 1.05 cm for a random sample of 20 ladybugs. Give your answer accurate to four decimal places. If you found assumptions to be violated in the previous question, answer this question as if the assumptions had not been violated.

We are interested in how long on average it takes Deadpool to grow back a leg. A simple random sample of 25 occasions results in an average of 63 minutes before Deadpool's leg grows back. Assume that the standard deviation of all grow-back-times is 10 minutes.

An object of irregular shape has a characteristic length of L = 1 m and is maintained at a uniform surface temperature of T_s = 325 K. It is suspended in an airstream that is at atmospheric pressure (p = 1 atm) and has a velocity of V = 100 m/s and a temperature of T_? = 275 K. The average heat flux from the surface to the air is 12,000 W/m². Referring to the foregoing situation as case 1, consider the following cases and determine whether conditions are analogous to those of case 1. Each case involves an object of the same shape, which is suspended in an airstream in the same manner. Where analogous behavior does exist, determine the corresponding value of the average heat or mass transfer convection coefficient, as appropriate.

(a) The values of T_s, T_?, and p remain the same, but L = 2 m and V = 50 m/s.

(b) The values of T_s and T_? remain the same, but L = 2 m, V = 50 m/s, and p = 0.2 atm.

(c) The surface is coated with a liquid film that evaporates into the air. The entire system is at 300 K, and the diffusion coefficient for the air–vapor mixture is D_AB = 1.12 × 10^?4 m²/s. Also, L = 2 m, V = 50 m/s, and p = 1 atm.

(d) The surface is coated with another liquid film for which D_AB = 1.12 × 10^?4 m²/s, and the system is at 300 K. In this case L = 2 m, V = 250 m/s, and p = 0.2 atm.
