The name comes from a cooking-mix analogy used by Neil Borden in his 1953 presidential address to the American Marketing Association. In 1960, E. Jerome McCarthy proposed the “four Ps” of marketing—product, price, place (or distribution), and promotion—as the most basic components of the marketing mix. Variables related to the four Ps are called marketing mix variables. A market researcher for a major manufacturer of computer printers is constructing a multiple regression model to predict monthly sales of printers using various marketing mix variables. The model uses historical data for various printer models and will be used to forecast sales for a newly introduced printer. The dependent variable for the model is: y = sales in a given month (in thousands of dollars) The predictor variables for the model are chosen from the following marketing mix…arrow_forward13. For the following studies, determine the null and alternative hypotheses and classify thehypothesis test as two tailed, left-tailed or right-tailed.a) A study was conducted comparing the wing lengths of two subspecies of dark-eyedjuncos. One of the subspecies migrates, the other does not. A hypothesis test is to beperformed to decide whether the mean wing length of the non-migratory birds is lessthan that of the migratory birds.b) A half-century ago, the average (U.S.) woman in her 20s was 62.6 inches tall. To see ifwoman tend to be taller, a random sample of 1000 women in their 20s was recentlyconducted and heights were recorded. A hypothesis test is to be performed to decide ifthe mean height of women in their 20s today is greater than that of the women in their20s a half-century ago.arrow_forward

Themothers of the children in the study had chosen whether to provide their infants withbreast milk. The researchers used the following designations. Group 1: mothersdeclined to provide breast milk; Group 2: mothers had chosen but were unable toprovide breast milk; Group 3: mothers had chosen and were able to provide breast milk.A hypothesis test is to be performed to decide if there is a difference in mean IQ amongthe three groups. Based on the methods studied in this class, what hypothesis test doyou think would fit the best? What would be the null hypothesis and what would be thealternative hypothesis? What are the assumptions for the test, and would you have anyconcerns about these assumptions.arrow_forward7. The National Center for Health Statistics conducts a National Health Interview Surveyevery year. Each year they randomly select U.S. households to interview. In 2020, theysurveyed 37,358 people and found that 3,624 of these people did not have healthinsurance. In 2021, they surveyed 37,989 people and found that 3,495 of these peopledid not have health insurance.At a 5% significance level, did the proportion of people who didn’t have healthinsurance decrease from 2020 to 2021?You need to use a hypothesis test for this, and you need to state your null andalternative hypotheses, your test statistic value, your p-value or critical value, and yourconclusion.arrow_forward3. A woman wants to know what proportion of people in her town have health insurance.She comes up with three sampling ideas, described below. Discuss the pros and cons ofeach in terms of obtaining an unbiased, representative sample.a. She stands outside her local grocery store every evening for a week, from 5-7 pm, andasks every 10th person entering if they have health insurance.b. She throws ten darts at a map of the town and then tries her best to survey all thepeople who live in the houses closest to the darts.c. She posts a survey on her Facebook page and asks all her friends to share her survey.d. She pays for a small ad in the local newspaper in which she poses her question andprovides her email address and phone number and asks people to contact her to withtheir answer.arrow_forward
- 5. A large, observational study once found that people who retired later in life tended tolive longer than those who retired early. The researchers concluded that people whowant to live longer should put off retirement until later in life. Do you agree with theirconclusion based on their study? Why or why not?arrow_forward11. Suppose a company claims that their lightbulb lasts an average of 5 years with astandard deviation of 0.5 years. (They are claiming that the population mean life of thebulb is 5 years with a population standard deviation of 0.5 years.) Assume theselightbulb lifetimes are normally distributed.a. Suppose you buy one light bulb and it only lasts you 4.5 years. Would you consider thatevidence against the company’s claim? (Hint: Assuming that the company’s claim istrue, determine the probability that a randomly selected bulb would last 4.5 years orless.)b. Suppose you buy 10 bulbs, and these 10 bulbs have a mean life of 4.5 years. Would youconsider that evidence against the company’s claim? (Hint: Assuming the company’sclaim is true, determine the probability that the mean of 10 randomly selected bulbswould last 4.5 years or less.)arrow_forward6.

Suppose that from a random sample of 25 households that recently spent the day at anAmerican amusement park, the mean cost for the day was $220.00 with a samplestandard deviation of $30.00.a.

Suppose a person is considering opening a pet supply shop in a certain town. As part oftheir research, they conduct a random survey of 10 households in the town. One of thequestions they ask during the survey is how many pets live in the household. Here arethe results:1, 0, 1, 2, 3, 3, 27, 0, 2, 1a. What is the sample mean?b. What is the sample median?c.
