Express all answers as decimals rounded to 3 decimal places, if needed. Express percentages as decimals (instead of 25.6%, use .256) Cell phone users in Boise can choose between three carriers: Sprint, AT&T, and Verizon. Advertising by all three companies results in a continual shift of customers. Each year, Sprint loses 30% of customers to AT&T and 30% to Verizon. AT&T loses 20% to Sprint and 10% to Verizon. Verizon loses 25% to Sprint and 25% to AT&T. Currently, Sprint has 25% of the market, AT&T has 35%, and Verizon has 40%. Use the order Sprint (S), AT&T (A), Verizon (V) throughout this assignment. 1.

A marketing manager for a large cafeteria chain wished to investigate sales of coffee (i.e., sales is the variable she is trying to understand). Fourteen cafeterias that were similar in such respects as volume of business, type of clientele, and location were chosen for data collection. Data were collected on sales of coffee (in hundreds of gallons) and the number of coffee dispensers within the cafeteria. The results are shown below. Sales Number of Dispensers 631.9 1 628 1 692.5 2 688.4 2 747.4 3 773.3 3 791.4 4 803.4 4 838.7 5 879.6 5 881 6 841.1 6 860.6 7 883.8 7 Create a scatter plot and then fit a quadratic model to predict sales from the number of dispensers. If we define y to be sales (in hundreds of gallons) and x to be the number of dispensers, what is the correct quadratic model? Group of answer choices a. y=-6.397x2+92.85x+538.06 b. y=41.67x+614.829 c. y=0.022x-12.979 d. y=3.348x10-5x2-0.0292x+6.09 e. y=623.521x0.180
