- a. Call centers today play an important role in managing day-to-day business communications with customers. It's important, therefore, to monitor a comprehensive set of metrics, which can help businesses understand the overall performance of a call center. One key metric for measuring overall call center performance is service level which is defined as the percentage of calls answered by a human agent within a specified number of seconds. The time, in seconds, to answer 10 incoming calls to a financial services call center are given below.: 16 14 16 19 6 15 5 6 9 At the 5% level of significance, does this sample show that on average the calls incoming to this call center are answered within 10 seconds. State the null and the alternative hypotheses. What is your conclusion? 14arrow_forwardMany people now turn to the internet to get information on health-related topics. A research article used Flesch reading ease scores (a measure of reading difficulty based on factors such as sentence length and number of syllables in the words used) to score pages on Wikipedia and on WebMD. Higher Flesch scores correspond to more difficult reading levels. The paper reported that for a representative sample of health-related pages on Wikipedia, the mean Flesch score was 26.9 and the standard deviation of the Flesch scores was 14.9. For a representative sample of pages from WebMD, the mean score was 43.5 and the standard deviation was 19.2. Suppose that these means and standard deviations were based on samples of 40 pages from each site. Is there convincing evidence that the mean reading level for health-related pages differs for Wikipedia and WebMD? Test the relevant hypotheses using a significance level of 0.05.

- In 2014, approximately 2% of hourly rate workers were being paid at the federal minimum wage level. Would federal legislation to increase the minimum wage have a greater effect on the mean or the median income of all workers?

The store manager investigates and learns that the customer that made a $500 purchase had not purchased groceries, but rather a $500 gift card. Because this customer's purchase was not typical, the manager decides to exclude this total from the data set. How will removing the $500 purchase from the data set affect the value of the mean and the median?arrow_forwardIn a 2015 study entitled How Undergraduate Students Use Credit Cards, it was reported that undergraduate students have a mean credit card balance higher than $3000. This figure was an all-time high and had increased 42% over the previous five years. Assume that a current study is being conducted to determine if it can be concluded that the mean credit card balance for undergraduate students has continued to increase compared to the report. They want to test to see if the balance for students in 2019 is higher than the balance for students in 2015. See the sample below of undergraduate students in 2015 and different undergraduate students in 2019.

- You may need to use the appropriate appendix table or technology to answer this question. According to the Vivino website, suppose the mean price for a bottle of red wine that scores 4.0 or higher on the Vivino Rating System is $32.48. A New England-based lifestyle magazine wants to determine if red wines of the same quality are less expensive in Providence, and it has collected prices for 65 randomly selected red wines of similar quality from wine stores throughout Providence. The mean and standard deviation for this sample are $30.15 and $12, respectively. (d) Repeat the preceding hypothesis test using the critical value approach. State the null and alternative hypotheses. (Enter != for ≠ as needed.) H0: Ha: Find the value of the test statistic. (Round your answer to three decimal places.) State the critical values for the rejection rule. Use ? = 0.05. (Round your answers to three decimal places. If the test is one-tailed, enter NONE for the unused tail.)…arrow_forwardYou saw back in Chapter 2 that the mean, median, mode, and midrange are used to indicate where data is centered in a data set, or in other words what a typical value in the set is. A question that is often asked is, "If they're all supposed to do the same thing, why is there more than one?" Isn't one enough? In this exercise, you will be given two small sets of data. For each set, a. find the mean, median, mode and midrange b. in your opinion, decide which of the measures BEST represents all the values in the set (best indicates a typical value), and which one does this the WORST. c. post your responses and justify them by explaining why Don't forget to respond to at least one of your classmate's posts. With this exercise, "more is better." I'll elaborate after the deadline. • Set A: the salaries of 10 employees at a company (in thousands of dollars): 50, 50, 50, 50, 50, 50, 50, 50, 50, 500 • Set B: the grades of 9 students on an exam: 20, 25, 30, 35, 40, 45, 100, 100, 100arrow_forwardCris Turlock owns and manages a small business in San Francisco, California. The business provides breakfast and brunch food, via carts parked along sidewalks, to people in the business district of the city. Being an experienced businessperson, Cris provides incentives for the salespeople operating the food carts. This year, she plans to offer monetary bonuses to her salespeople based on their individual mean daily sales. Her first task is to see if there is a significant difference in the mean daily sales among the different salespeople. She chooses a "sample" of days for each salesperson and records the sales for each day. She then runs a one-way, independent-samples ANOVA test to determine whether or not she can conclude that at least one salesperson's performances is significantly different from the others. (Otherwise, she'll split the bonuses evenly among all the salespeople.) In her ANOVA, the "groups" are the different salespeople, and the variable of interest is the daily sales…arrow_forward
