- An fruit grower knows from previous experience and careful data analysis that if the fruit on a specific kind of tree is harvested at this time of year, each tree will yield, on average, 127 pounds, and will sell for $4.6 per pound. However, for each additional week the harvest is delayed (up to a point), the yield per tree will increase by 2.1 pounds, while the price per pound will decrease by $0.07. A) How many weeks should the grower wait before harvesting the apples in order to maximize the sales revenue per tree? (Round your answer to the nearest tenth of a week.) Answer: __________ (rounded to the nearest tenth) B) Use your answer in part A to find the actual maximum revenue that can be expected. (Round your answer to the nearest dollar.)

She gathers data for apartment buildings in 12 cities in 12 different states. In each city, she gets the numbers for at least 5 different buildings and at least 40 apartments in each building. She reaches the following conclusion: the rental cost of a 2-bedroom apartment is 50% more than the rental cost of a 1-bedroom apartment, and the rental cost of a 3-bedroom apartment is 50% more than the rental cost of a 2-bedroom apartment. Based on the paragraph, what is the minimum number of apartments she collected data on? Do you think her sample was large enough to be statistically valid? Based on the paragraph, are there any apartments or apartment buildings that she would have excluded from her study? Do you see any bias in how she selected apartments for her study?

- 5 Imagine that a company sells portable walkie-talkie radios to construction crews. The batteries for these radios last for an average of 55 hours. The purchasing manager for this company receives a brochure in the mail that advertises a new brand of batteries. This new brand of batteries is cheaper than the brand that the company currently uses. However, the purchasing manager is concerned that the cheaper batteries may have a shorter average battery life than the current brand. (Note: The number of hours that batteries last is called their battery life.) The pricing manager installs 40 randomly selected batteries of the cheaper brand in the company's walkie-talkie radios. He finds that the mean battery life for the sample is 52 hours, with a standard deviation of 10 hours. He wants to perform a statistical test at the 1% level of significance to determine whether the cheaper batteries have a shorter average battery life span than the average life span of the brand of batteries the…arrow_forward1.
