Accepted characters: numbers, decimal point markers (period or comma), sign indicators (-), spaces (e.g., as thousands separator, 5 000), "E" or "e" (used in scientific notation). NOTE: For scientific notation, a period MUST be used as the decimal point marker. Complex numbers should be in the form (a + bi) where "a" and "b" need to have explicitly stated values. For example: {1+1i} is valid whereas {1+i} is not. {0+9i} is valid whereas {9i} is not. Senior management of a consulting services firm is concerned about a growing decline in the firm’s weekly number of billable hours. The firm expects each professional employee to spend at least 40 hours per week on work. In an effort to understand this problem better, management would like to estimate the standard deviation of the number of hours their employees spend on work-related activities in a typical week. Rather than reviewing the records of all the firm’s full-time employees, the management randomly selected a sample of size 51 from the available frame. The sample mean and sample standard deviations were 48.5 and 7.5 hours, respectively. Construct a 95% confidence interval for the standard deviation of the number of hours this firm’s employees spend on work-related activities in a
typical week. Place your LOWER limit, in hours, rounded to 1 decimal place, in the first blank. For example, 6.7 would be a legitimate entry. 6.2 Place your UPPER limit, in hours, rounded to 1 decimal place, in the second blank. For example, 12.3 would be a legitimate entry. 9.3 Ans Question 2 of 20

The personnel department of a large corporation wants to estimate the family dental expenses of its employees to determine the feasibility of providing a dental insurance plan. A random sample of 12 employees reveals the following family dental expenses (in dollars): 115, 370, 250, 593, 540, 225, 177, 425, 318, 182, 275, and 228. Construct a 99% confidence interval estimate for the standard deviation of family dental expenses for all employees of this corporation. Place your LOWER limit, in dollars rounded to 1 decimal place, in the first blank. Do not use a dollar sign, a comma, or any other stray mark. For example, 98.4 would be a legitimate entry. 94.7 Place your UPPER limit, in dollars rounded to 1 decimal place, in the second blank. Do not use a dollar sign, a comma, or any other stray mark. For example, 567.8 would be a legitimate entry. 304.0 Answer Key: Question 3 of 20

If a sample has 20 observations and a 95% confidence estimate for is needed, the appropriate value of the t-multiple required is 2.093 . Place your answer, rounded to 3 decimal places, in the blank. For example, 4.567 would be a legitimate entry. Question 4 of 20 1.0/ 1.0 Points

NOTE: For scientific notation, a period MUST be used as the decimal point marker. Complex numbers should be in the form (a + bi) where "a" and "b" need to have explicitly stated values. For example: {1+1i} is valid whereas {1+i} is not. {0+9i} is valid whereas {9i} is not. A sample of 9 production managers with over 15 years of experience has an average salary of $71,000 and a sample standard deviation of $18,000. Assuming that s = 18,000 is a reasonable estimate for what sample size would be needed to ensure that we could estimate the true mean salary of all production managers with more than 15 years experience within $4200 if we wish to be 95% confident? Place your answer, as a whole number, in the blank. Do not use a dollar sign, a comma, or any other stray mark. For examples, 34 would be a legitimate entry. 71 Question 5 of 20 0.0/ 1.0 Points

The manufacturer of a new compact car claims the miles per gallon (mpg) for the gasoline consumption is mound-shaped and symmetric with a mean of 24.6 mpg and a standard deviation of 11.2 mpg. If
30 such cars are tested, what is the probability the average mpg achieved by these 30 cars will be greater than 27? Answer: 0.4168 Round your answer to 4 decimal places as necessary. For example, 0.1357 would be a legitimate entry. Answer Key: 0
Feedback: This is a sampling distribution problem with Îź = 24.6. Ďƒ = 11.2, and sample size n = 30.
P(z > 1.173691) = 1 - NORMSDIST(1.173691) = 0.1203 Or you can compute the probability without having to compute z first: P(x-bar > 27) = 1 - NORMDIST(27, 24.6, 11.2/SQRT(30), TRUE) = 0.1203 Question 6 of 20
