Emerald® Designer EditionTM is Sherwin Williams’ “finest interior architectural coating” (or, more commonly, paint). Drying time is stated to be temperature and humidity dependent: for recoating: 4 hours, assuming 77o F and 50% relative humidity.

A contractor records relative humidity and drying time for ten recent jobs as shown at right.

  1. Based on the relative humidity, what is the least squares regression equation for the drying time for this paint?
  2. What percentage of the variation in drying time is explained by variation in relative humidity?
  3. Using your least squares estimator, what drying time would you expect on a day with 65% relative humidity?

A liquid food(viscosty: 0.003 Pa S; density:1033 kg/m^3) is being pumped at a rate of 3 m^3/h from a tank A, where the absolute pressure is 12,350 Pa, to a tank B, where the absolute pressure is 101,325 Pa, through a sanitary with 3.8 cm diameter and 4.6x10^-5 m surface roughness. The pump is 1 m below the liquid level in tank A and the discharge in tank B is 3.3 m above the pump. If the length of the pipe in the suction line is 2 m, the dischargeline 10 m, and there are one 90 degree anlge flanged elbow in the suction line, two 90 degree angle thread elbowsin the discharge line, and one globe valve in the discharge line. Calculate he pump power required for finishing this job, assuming the efficeincy of the pump is 65%.

(Python) Write a program that takes in a positive integer as input, and outputs a string of 1's and 0's representing the integer in binary. For an integer x, the algorithm is:

In Python

8.21 Program: Convert to binary. Sections 2.7, 3.8, 5.2. Functions.

Write a program that takes in a positive integer as input, and outputs a string of 1's and 0's representing the integer in binary. For an integer x, the algorithm is:

As long as x is greater than 0
   Output x % 2 (remainder is either 0 or 1)
   x = x // 2

Note: The above algorithm outputs the 0's and 1's in reverse order. You will need to write a second function to reverse the string.

Your program must define and call the following two functions. The function integer_to_reverse_binary() should return a string of 1's and 0's representing the integer in binary (in reverse). The function reverse_string() should return a string representing the input string in reverse.
def integer_to_reverse_binary(integer_value)
def reverse_string(input_string)

Ex: If the input is:

6

the output is:

110

  • Please state the null and alternative hypotheses.
  • Using an alpha level of .05, please test the null hypothesis (what is the appropriate test, what is the critical value?). Draw the rejection region.
  • Calculate the test statistic
  • State the conclusion you are entitled to draw as a result of this test.
  • Calculate the effect size as appropriate for the hypothesis test used.

  1. A current popular game relies on the rolling of twenty sided dice to determine success or failure. The current iteration occasionally uses rolling two dice, but only selecting the best roll to determine the outcome. An older edition merely modified the roll by 2 during these occasions. A sample of rolls under both conventions has been collected. The mean of 10 rolls using the two dice technique was 13.9 (SD = 3.8). The mean of 10 rolls using the older technique was 12.5 (SD = 4.4). Does the revised technique make a difference?

An article in Solid State Technology, "Orthogonal design for process optimization and its application to plasma etching" by G.Z.Yin and D.W.
Jillie (May, 1987) describes an experiment to determine the effect of the
C2F6 flow rate on the uniformity of the etch on a silicon wafer used in
integrated circuit manufacturing. All of the runs were made in random order. Data for two flow rates are as follows:

C2F6     Uniformity Observation
Flow 1      2      3      4     5      6

125   2.7   4.6 2.6   3.0   3.2   3.8

200   4.6   3.4   2.9   3.5   4.1   5.1

a) Does C2F6 flow rate affect average etch uniformity? use a=0.05

b) What is the P-value for the test in part (a)

c)Does the C2F6 affect the wafer-to-wafer variability in each uniformity? use a0.05

d) Draw box plots to assist in the interpretation of the data from this experiment

Andrea would like to organize SHO as either an LLC (taxed as a sole proprietorship) or a C corporation. In either form, the entity is expected to generate an 12 percent annual before-tax return on a $920,000 investment. Andrea’s marginal income tax rate is 35 percent and her tax rate on dividends and capital gains is 15 percent. Andrea will also pay a 3.8 percent net investment income tax on dividends and capital gains she recognizes. If Andrea organizes SHO as an LLC, Andrea will be required to pay an additional 2.9 percent for self-employment tax and an additional 0.9 percent for the additional Medicare tax. Further, she is eligible to claim the full deduction for qualified business income. Assume that SHO will pay out all of its after-tax earnings every year as a dividend if it is formed as a C corporation.
