Adams Airline Company is considering expanding its territory. The company has the opportunity to purchase one of two different used airplanes. The first airplane is expected to cost $14,790,000; it will enable the company to increase its annual cash inflow by $5,100,000 per year. The plane is expected to have a useful life of five years and no salvage value. The second plane costs $34,400,000; it will enable the company to increase annual cash flow by $8,600,000 per year. This plane has an eight-year useful life and a zero salvage value. Required Determine the payback period for each investment alternative and identify the alternative Adams should accept if the decision is based on the payback approach. (Round your answers to 1 decimal place.)

5. FA monomers indirectly interact via covalent bonds with other molecules to form lipid/fat polymers. Explain what this means, and why an additional molecule must be involved. Also describe the interaction that does occurs between FA tails, and why this interaction occurs; compare these interactions in saturated and unsaturated FAs.

I found that sociobiologists suggest that this is nature’s way of successfully preserving the altruistic gene as this is a well adapted characteristic (Leak & Christopher, 1982). How can selfless behavior be deemed a strong adaptation if the species are more concerned with taking care of others over their own well being?

The following table shows age distribution and location of a random sample of 166 buffalo in a national park.
Age | Lamar District | Nez Perce District | Firehole District | Row Total |
Calf | 14 | 14 | 13 | 41 |
Yearling | 12 | 9 | 12 | 33 |
Adult | 30 | 28 | 34 | 92 |
Column Total | 56 | 51 | 59 | 166 |
Use a chi-square test to determine if age distribution and location are independent at the 0.05 level of significance.
(a) What is the level of significance?
State the null and alternate hypotheses.
H0: Age distribution and location are not
independent.
H1: Age distribution and location are not
independent.H0: Age distribution and location
are independent.
H1: Age distribution and location are
independent. H0: Age
distribution and location are not independent.
H1: Age distribution and location are
independent.H0: Age distribution and location
are independent.
H1: Age distribution and location are not
independent.
(b) Find the value of the chi-square statistic for the sample.
(Round the expected frequencies to at least three decimal places.
Round the test statistic to three decimal places.)
Are all the expected frequencies greater than 5?
YesNo
What sampling distribution will you use?
uniformchi-square normalStudent's tbinomial
What are the degrees of freedom?
(c) Find or estimate the P-value of the sample test
statistic. (Round your answer to three decimal places.)
p-value > 0.1000.050 < p-value < 0.100 0.025 < p-value < 0.0500.010 < p-value < 0.0250.005 < p-value < 0.010p-value < 0.005
(d) Based on your answers in parts (a) to (c), will you reject or
fail to reject the null hypothesis of independence?
Since the P-value > α, we fail to reject the null hypothesis.Since the P-value > α, we reject the null hypothesis. Since the P-value ≤ α, we reject the null hypothesis.Since the P-value ≤ α, we fail to reject the null hypothesis.
(e) Interpret your conclusion in the context of the
application.
At the 5% level of significance, there is sufficient evidence to conclude that age distribution and location are not independent.At the 5% level of significance, there is insufficient evidence to conclude that age distribution and location are not independent.
