J.D. Power and Associates conducts vehicle quality surveys to provide automobile manufacturers with consumer satisfaction information about their products (Vehicle Quality Survey, January 2010 ). Using a sample of vehicle owners from recent vehicle purchase records, the survey asks the owners a variety of questions about their new vehicles, such as those shown below. For each question, state whether the data collected are categorical or quantitative and indicate the measurement scale being used.
a. What price did you pay for the vehicle?
b. How did you pay for the vehicle? (Cash, Lease, or Finance)
c. How likely would you be to recommend this vehicle to a friend? (Definitely Not, Probably Not, Probably Will, and Definitely Will)
d. What is the current mileage?
e. What is your overall rating of your new vehicle? A 110 -point scale, ranging from I for
unacceptable to 10 for truly exceptional, was used.
Answer:
Categorical data includes
b. How did you pay for the vehicle? (Cash, Lease, or Finance)
c. How likely would you be to recommend this vehicle to a friend? (Definitely Not, Probably Not, Probably Will, and Definitely Will)
e. What is your overall rating of your new vehicle? A 1 to 10 point scale, ranging from I for unacceptable to 10 for truly exceptional, was used.
Quantitative data includes
a. What price did you pay for the vehicle?
d. What is the current mileage?
Step-by-step explanation:
Categorical data refers to the kind of data in which the variables are grouped based on a particular quality, ticking a particular box or satisfying some specific requirements.
It uses one or more qualitative property/properties to assign variables into a limited, usually fixed groups or categories. Note that the qualitative property might be a grouped data of numerical values. As long as there are easily separable and recognizable groups, it is categorical data.
This is also called qualitative data.
Quantitative data is a data that is strictly about numerical values. A dataset that consists of numerical values of the members of the dataset. Deals almost exclusively with numbers, usually ungrouped.
So, examining the given datasets one at a time
a. What price did you pay for the vehicle?
The answer to this question is a numerical value and for various customers, it builds up a dataset of strictly numerical values. Hence, this resulting data is a quantitative data.
b. How did you pay for the vehicle? (Cash, Lease, or Finance)
The answers to this question can only take 3 forms; Cash, Lease or Finance, indicating that all the variables in the dataset can only take on limited, fixed number of groups/categories. Hence, this dataset is a categorical data.
c. How likely would you be to recommend this vehicle to a friend? (Definitely Not, Probably Not, Probably Will, and Definitely Will)
The answers to this question too can take on 4 limited, fixed categories or groups, Hence, it's easy to see that this dataset is also categorical data.
d. What is the current mileage?
The answer to this question is a numerical value. Various answers from numerous persons would lead to a data of numbers. Hence, this is a quantitative data.
e. What is your overall rating of your new vehicle? A 1 to 10 point scale, ranging from I for unacceptable to 10 for truly exceptional, was used.
Limited, fixed categories or groups (10 groups) are also available for this data, hence, it is easily a categorical data.

The length of the parametric curve (call it C ) is given by
[tex]\displaystyle\int_C\mathrm ds=\int_0^{8\pi}\sqrt{\left(\frac{\mathrm dx}{\mathrm dt}\right)^2+\left(\frac{\mathrm dy}{\mathrm dt}\right)^2}\,\mathrm dt[/tex]
We have
[tex]x=t-2\sin t\implies\dfrac{\mathrm dx}{\mathrm dt}=1-2\cos t[/tex]
[tex]y=1-2\cos t\implies\dfrac{\mathrm dy}{\mathrm dt}=2\sin t[/tex]
Now,

You are situated 300 feet from the base of Tower Glitz Plaza watching an external elevator descend down the side of the building. At a certain instant the elevator is 500 feet away from you, and its distance from you is decreasing at a rate of 16 ft/sec. How fast is the elevator descending at that instant?
Answer:
18.66 ft/s
Step-by-step explanation:
The distance between you and the elevator is given by:
[tex]h=\sqrt{x^2+y^2}[/tex]
The rate of change for the distance between you and the elevator is given by:
[tex]\frac{dh}{dt}=\frac{dh}{dy}*\frac{dy}{dt}[/tex]
[tex]-16=\frac{dh}{dy}*\frac{dy}{dt}[/tex]
[tex]\frac{dh}{dy}=\frac{d}{dy} (\sqrt{x^2+y^2})\\[/tex]
Applying the chain rule:
[tex]u=x^2+y^2\\\frac{dh}{dy}=\frac{d\sqrt u}{du} *\frac{du}{dy}\\\frac{dh}{dy}=\frac{1}{2\sqrt u} *2y\\\frac{dh}{dy}=\frac{y}{\sqrt {(x^2+y^2)}}[/tex]
Therefore, at x=300 and y = 500, dy/dt is:
[tex]-16=\frac{y}{\sqrt {(x^2+y^2)}}*\frac{dy}{dt}\\-16=\frac{500}{\sqrt {(300^2+500^2)}}*\frac{dy}{dt}\\\frac{dy}{dt}=-18.66\ ft/s[/tex]
The elevator is descending at 18.66 ft/s.

Borland, Inc., has a profit margin of 5.6 percent on sales of $13.6 million. If the firm has debt of $6.4 million and total assets of $9.8 million, what is the firm’s ROA?
Answer:
ROA = 7.77 percent
Step-by-step explanation:
Borland, Inc., has a profit margin of 5.6 percent on sales of $13.6 million
Thus, profit = 5.6% of $13.6 million
profit = 5.6 / 100 * $13.6 million = $0.7616 million
Profit is same as net income
Formula for ROA (return on asset) = net income/ total asset
total asset as given = $9.8 million
Thus, ROA = $0.7616/ $9.8 = 0.0777
ROA in percentage = 0.0777*100 = 7.77
Thus, ROA is 7.77 percent .

Suppose that weekly income of migrant workers doing agricultural labor in Florida has a distribution with a mean of $520 and a standard deviation of $90. A researcher randomly selected a sample of 100 migrant workers. What is the probability that sample mean is less than $510
Answer:
[tex] z=\frac{510-520}{\frac{90}{\sqrt{100}}}= -1.11[/tex]
And we can find the probability using the normal standard distribution table and with the complement rule we got:
[tex]P(z<-1.11)= 0.1335[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
For this problem we have the following parameters:
[tex] \mu = 520, \sigma = 90[/tex]
We select a sample size of n =100 and we want to find this probability:
[tex] P(\bar X <510) [/tex]
The distribution for the sample mean using the central limit theorem would be given by:
[tex]\bar X \sim N(\mu,\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}})[/tex]
And we can solve this problem with the z score formula given by:
[tex] z=\frac{\bar X -\mu}{\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}}[/tex]
And if we find the z score formula we got:
[tex] z=\frac{510-520}{\frac{90}{\sqrt{100}}}= -1.11[/tex]
And we can find the probability using the normal standard distribution table and with the complement rule we got:
[tex]P(z<-1.11)= 0.1335[/tex]

(a) Use a linear approximation to estimate f(0.9) and f(1.1). f(0.9) ≈ f(1.1) ≈ (b) Are your estimates in part (a) too large or too small? Explain. The slopes of the tangent lines are negative, but the tangents are becoming steeper. So the tangent lines lie below the curve f. Thus, the estimates are too large. The slopes of the tangent lines are negative, but the tangents are becoming steeper. So the tangent lines lie below the curve f. Thus, the estimates are too small. The slopes of the tangent lines are positive, but the tangents are becoming less steep. So the tangent lines lie above the curve f. Thus, the estimates are too large. The slopes of the tangent lines are positive, but the tangents are becoming less steep. So the tangent lines lie above the curve f. Thus, the estimates are too small.
Answer:
(Missing part of the question is attached)
[tex]L(x)=2x+3[/tex]
Estimates are too large.
Step-by-step explanation:
Suppose the only information we know about the function is:
[tex]f(1)=5[/tex]
where the graph of its derivative is shown in the attachment
(a)If the function [tex]f\\[/tex] is differentiable at point [tex]x=1[/tex] , the tangent line to the graph of [tex]f[/tex] at 1 is given by the equation:
[tex]y=f(1) +f'(1)(x-1)[/tex]
So we call the linear function:
[tex]L(x)=f(1) +f'(1)(x-1)[/tex]
We know the [tex]f(1)=5[/tex] as it is given in the question, and [tex]f'(1)=2[/tex] from the graph attached. Substitute in the equation of [tex]L(x)[/tex].
[tex]L(x)=5+2(x-1)\\L(x)=5+2x-2\\L(x)=2x+3\\[/tex]
(b)At x=1, [tex]f'(x)[/tex] is positive but it is decreasing. However. if we draw the tangent lines, we see that the tangent lines are becoming less steeper, so the tangent lines lie above the curve [tex]f[/tex]. Thus, The estimates are too large.

Sample size 14 12
Sample mean 157 218
Sample Variance 1563 1602
Assume population variances are unequal.
(a) The point estimate of the difference between the means of the two populations is
(b) The standard error for the difference between the two means is
(c) The correct distribution to use is :
t-distribution with 26 degrees of freedom
t-distribution with 23 degrees of freedom
normal distribution
t-distribution with 24 degrees of freedom
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
The confidence interval for the difference of two population means is expressed as
Confidence interval = (x1 - x2) ± z√(s²/n1 + s2²/n2)
Where
x1 = sample mean of low-tech industry
x2 = sample mean of consumer products industry
s1 = sample standard deviation low-tech industry
s2 = sample standard deviation for consumer products industry
n1 = number of samples of low-tech industry
n2 = number of samples of consumer products industry
a) x1 - x2 is the point estimate of the difference between the means of the two populations
Therefore,
Point estimate = 157 - 218 = - 61
b) the formula for standard error is expressed as
√(s1²/n1 + s2²/n2)
Variance = standard deviation²(s²)
s1² = 1563
s2² = 1602
Standard error = √(1563²/14 + 1602²/12) = 623.2
c) Degree of freedom =
(n1 - 1) + (n2 - 1) = (14 - 1) + (12 - 1) = 24
t-distribution with 24 degrees of freedom
According to the data given, we have that:
a) 61
b) 15.65
c) t-distribution with 24 degrees of freedom
Item a:
The point estimate is the difference between the two sample means, hence:
218 - 157 = 61.
Item b:
For each sample, the standard errors are:
[tex]s_l = \sqrt{\frac{1563}{14}} = 10.57[/tex]
[tex]s_h = \sqrt{\frac{1602}{12}} = 11.54[/tex]
For the difference of the two means, it is:
[tex]s = \sqrt{s_l^2 + s_h^2} = \sqrt{10.57^2 + 11.54^2} = 15.65[/tex]
Item c:
Samples of 14 and 12, hence 14 + 12 - 2 = 24 df.

A ball travels on a parabolic path in which the height (in feet) is given by the expression $-25t^2+75t+24$, where $t$ is the time after launch. At what time is the height of the ball at its maximum?
Answer:
The height of the ball is at it's maximum 1.5 units of time after launch.
Step-by-step explanation:
Suppose we have a quadratic function in the following format:
[tex]h(t) = at^{2} + bt + c[/tex]
If t is negative, the maximu value of h(t) will happen at the point
[tex]t_{MAX} = -\frac{b}{2a}[/tex]
In this question:
[tex]h(t) = -25t^{2} + 75t + 24[/tex]
So
[tex]a = -25, b = 75, c = 24[/tex]
Then
[tex]t_{MAX} = -\frac{b}{2a} = -\frac{75}{2*(-25)} = 1.5[/tex]
The height of the ball is at it's maximum 1.5 units of time after launch.
The function h(t) = -4.92f^2 + 17.69f + 575 is used to model the height of an object being tossed from a tall building, where h(t) is the height in meters and t is the time in seconds. What are the domain and range?
Answer:
rounded to 3 decimal places ...
domain: [0, 12.757]range: [0, 590.901]Step-by-step explanation:
The function can be put into vertex form:
h(t) = -4.92(t -(1769/984))^2 +575 +4.92(1769/984)^2
h(t) ≈ -4.92(t -1.79776)^2 +590.90122
The value of h(t) is zero for ...
t = √(590.90122/4.92) +1.79776 ≈ 12.75686
For practical purposes, the domain of the function is those values of t between the time the object is tossed and the time it hits the ground. That is, the domain is ...
0 ≤ t ≤ 12.75686
The range is the set of useful vertical heights, so extends from 0 to the maximum height, given by the vertex.
The range is 0 ≤ h(t) ≤ 590.90122.
_____
Alternate interpretation of the question
The function h(t) is defined for all values of t, so that could be considered the domain.
The function h(t) only gives values less than its vertex value, so the range could be considered to extend from negative infinity to that maximum.
The width of the rectangle is 2 more than the length. The area of the rectangle is 63 square inches. How long is the width?
Answer:
9 inches
Step-by-step explanation:
Area of rectangle= length ×width
Let the length of the rectangle be x inches.
Width of rectangle= (x +2) inches
since the width is 2 more than the length.
63= x(x+2)
63= x(x) +2x
Bringing constant to one side,
x² +2x -63= 0
(x +9)(x-7) = 0 (factorise)
x+9= 0 or x-7= 0
x= -9 or x= 7
(reject)
width of rectangle
= 7+2
= 9 inches
*We reject x= -9 since the length of the rectangle cannot be a negative number.
The local swim team is considering offering a new semi-private class aimed at entry-level swimmers, but needs at minimum number of swimmers to sign up in order to be cost effective. Last year's data showed that during 8 swim sessions the average number of entry-level swimmers attending was 15. Suppose the instructor wants to conduct a hypothesis test. The alternative hypothesis for this hypothesis test is: "the population mean is less than 15". The sample size is 8, LaTeX: \sigmaσ is known, and alpha =.05, the critical value of z is _______. Group of answer choices
Answer:
The signficance level is 0.05 and then based in the alternative hypothesis we can find a critical value who accumulates 0.05 of the area in the normal standard curve in the left and we got:
[tex] z_{\alpha/2}= -1.64[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
[tex]n=8[/tex] the same size given
[te]\sigma[/tex] the population deviation is known
For this case we want to test if the population mean is less than 15 and that represent the alternative hypothesis and the complement would be the null hypothesis. So then the system of hypothesis are:
Null hypothesis: [tex]\mu \geq 15[/tex]
Alternative hypothesis: [tex]\mu <15[/tex]
The signficance level is 0.05 and then based in the alternative hypothesis we can find a critical value who accumulates 0.05 of the area in the normal standard curve in the left and we got:
[tex] z_{\alpha/2}= -1.64[/tex]
