A crew of mechanics at the Highway Department garage repair vehicles that break down at an average of 10 vehicles per hour (approximately Poisson in nature). The mechanic crew can service an average of 2 vehicles every 10 minutes with a repair time distribution that approximates an exponential distribution. The crew cost is approximately $50 per hour. The cost associated with lost productivity from the breakdown is estimated at $80 per vehicle per hour (or any fraction thereof). Which is cheaper, the existing system with one service crew, or a revised system with two service crews? The average waiting time for adding the second crew is 0.02.

A psychic was tested for ESP. The psychic was presented with 400
cards face down and was asked to determine if the card was one of
four symbols: a cross, a star, a circle, or a square. The psychic
was correct in 120 of the cases. Let p represent the probability
that the psychic correctly identifies the symbol on the card in a
random trial.
A. Using the results above, construct a 99% confidence interval for p.
| a |
(.255, .345) |
| b |
(.262, .338) |
| c |
(.241, .359) |
| d |
(.259, .341) |
| e |
We can assert that p = 0.25 with 100% confidence because the psychic is just guessing. |
B. How large a sample n would you need to estimate p with a margin of error of 0.01 with 95% confidence? (Use the guess 0.25 as the value of p)
| a |
N = 447 |
| b |
N = 7203 |
| c |
N = 9604 |
| d |
N = 30 |

In a local bar, a customer slides an empty beer mug down the
counter for a refill. The height of the counter is 1.10 m. The mug
slides off the counter and strikes the floor 0.20 m from the base
of the counter.
(a) With what velocity did the mug leave the counter?
____________m/s ????
(b) What was the direction of the mug's velocity just before it hit
the floor?

An employee at a coffee shop hypothesizes that the harder the espresso grounds are tamped down into the portafilter before brewing, the longer the separation time of the heart, body, and crema will be. The accompanying data table shows the results of this experiment. The independent variable tamp measures thedistance, in inches, between the espresso grounds and the top of the portafilter. The dependent variable time is the number of seconds the heart, body, and crema are separated. Complete parts (a) through (f) below.
Shot Tamp Time
1 0.20 15
2 0.55 15
3 0.25 12
4 0.15 13
5 0.20 15
6 0.40 14
7 0.25 15
8 0.50 9
9 0.15 17
10 0.30 13
11 0.20 10
12 0.15 15
13 0.40 18
14 0.45 19
15 0.15 15
Part a) Use the least-squares method to develop a single regression equation with Time as the dependent variable and Tamp as the independent variable. (Can you show me the step by step process using PHSTAT on all answers)
part b) Predict the mean separation time for a tamp distance of 0.45 inch.
part c) Plot the residuals versus the time order of experimentation. Are there any noticeable patterns?
part d) Compute the Durbin-Watson statistic. At the 0.05 level of significance, is there evidence of positive autocorrelation among the residuals?
Part E) Based on the results of (c) and (d), is there reason to question the validity of the model?
