The mayor of Coast Town has determined that the best way to pay for the construction of a new library is to charge all residents

and non-residents a fee for visiting Coast Town's well-regarded beach. The mayor reasons that at current levels of visitation, the revenue generated from the beach visitation fee will pay for the new library within three years.
Which of the following pieces of information would be most useful in evaluating the mayor’s conclusion?

A) The manner in which other towns in the state have funded the construction of their libraries.
B) Whether visitors to Coast Town's beach will reduce the frequency of their visits in response to the fee.
C) How many people visited Coast Town's beach last year.
D) How many other beaches lie within convenient driving distance from Coast Town.
E) The average level of household income of residents in Coast Town.

It should be c because the mayor calculate the revenue the beach generates based on the current level of visitation. Charging a fee will no doubt reduce the amount of non-resident visitor, affecting how long it takes for the beach revenue to cover the cost of construction of the new library

<h3>What is a ledger?</h3>

A ledger is a specialized accounting tool.  It can also be described as a financial book or computer program.

In the ledger, information from accounting journals is accumulated and posted into specific categories matching the type of accounts.

From the ledger, the trial balance is extracted, which forms the basis for preparing the financial statements that show an entity's financial profitability and position.

Thus, a specialized accounting book for accumulating and posting business transactions into specific categories is a ledger.

A Quality Analyst wants to construct a sample mean chart for controlling a packaging process. He knows from past experience that
AlexFokin [52]

Answer:

There are 5 questions altogether, so the answers and explanations are below.

Explanation:

QUESTION 1

Whenever the packaging process is under control, package weight is normally distributed with mean of 20 ounces and standard deviation of 2 ounces. This makes the true mean lie between 18 and 22 [subtract 2 from 20 and add 2 to 20].

For Monday, the mean is the addition of the values then divided by 4. That is, 92/4 = 23

For Tuesday, same computation follows. We have 84/4 = 21

For Wednesday, 80/4 = 20

For Thursday, 76/4 = 19

For Friday, 80/4 = 20

For the packaging process to be out of control, the mean weight for that day of the week must be outside the interval.

The answer is option (A) Monday because the mean weight for that day exceeds the upper limit of 22 ounces.

QUESTION 2

Accordingly, he sampled 4 units of output from each machine.

We will find the mean of the output units from each machine.

M1 : (17+15+15+17) ÷ 4 = 64/4 = 16

M2 : 84 ÷ 4 = 21

M3 : 92 ÷ 4 = 23

The correct answer is option (A) Machine Number 1 because the process mean for that machine is outside the control limit specified. The value 16 is below the lower limit value of 16.71.

QUESTION 3

It is the same as question 2 BUT we are to find the estimate of the process mean for whenever it is under control.

The interval given [16.71 - 23.29] represents the interval within which the process means for machines which are 'under-control' will fall. Hence the estimate of the process mean for whenever the machines are under control is:

(23.29 + 16.71) ÷ 2 = 40/2 = 20

The correct option is (C) 20

QUESTION 4

Specification requires that the piece of material be between 52.47 and 55.53 inches.

The process that produces the piece of material yields an interval of [53.1 - 54.9].

This is gotten from the subtraction of the standard deviation/error from the process mean of 54 and adding the standard error to the process mean of 54.

The answer is option (E) None of the above. This is because the correct answer is 100%. All pieces produced by the process fall within 53.1 and 54.9 inches and this interval falls rightly within the required specification of [52.47 - 55.53] inches.

QUESTION 5

Here, process mean interval is same as the required interval. Subtracting the standard deviation from the process mean and adding it to the process mean, we get our lower limit and upper limit respectively. The distribution of output is also normal.

Since the process is under/in control, it means that the 5 samples had sample means that are within the required interval.

So, since distribution of output (mean) is Normal, 85.01% of the sample means will fall within the middle values of 85.01% of the interval.

The interval spans 1.6 points or inches. This is the distance or difference between the upper and lower limits.

85.01% of 1.6 is 1.36016

We will divide this interval into two so we can get our new standard deviation and subtract it from 59, as well as add it to 59, to get the new interval within which 85.01% of sample means will fall.

1.36016 ÷ 2 = 0.68008

So the new lower limit is 58.31992

New upper limit = 59.68008

Correct answer is Option (E) None of the above

85.01% of sample means will fall within [58.31992 - 59.68008]

If approximated to 3 decimal places as in the options given above, 85.01% of sample means will fall within [58.320 - 59.680] inches.

GOOD LUCK!!
