Ricardo has just taken over his parents' restaurant. He knows after working there for many years that one of the major concerns

among employees is competitive pay. Specifically, Ricardo's servers think that they are paid less than servers in similar restaurants.
To help investigate this issue, Ricardo employs a company that specializes in gathering data about pay rates for similar positions across the state. The company provides Ricardo with the following box-and-whisker plot.


Ricardo's goal is to provide his servers with competitive pay compared to other restaurants in the state. He currently pays his servers hourly rates ranging from $8.50 to $11.50, depending on experience and seniority. His median server pay is $8.83. Based on what he sees in the plot above, which of the following is an appropriate conclusion for Ricardo?
A.
Ricardo's median is consistent with the state median. Ricardo should leave his servers' pay as it is.
B.
Most of Ricardo's servers are paid more than the state median. Ricardo should leave his servers' pay as it is.
C.
Ricardo's minimum, maximum, and median are all significantly less that those of the state. Ricardo should increase his servers' pay.
D.
Almost half of other servers across the state make more than the highest paid of Ricardo's servers. Ricardo should increase his servers' pay.

A researcher is interested in the effect of gender bias in hiring. A total of 100 scientists were given a fake job application a
Igoryamba

Answer:

The hypothesis test appropriate to be used here is <em>t</em>-test for the difference between two means.

Step-by-step explanation:

In this case, the researcher is interested in the effect of gender bias in hiring, i.e. the researcher wants to determine whether there is any difference in hiring between the male and female candidates.

So the researcher selects 100 fake job application; 50 scientists received an application with a typically male name on top, while the other 50 scientists received an application with a typically female name on top.

The scientists have to rate how likely they were to hire the candidate.

It is provided that the applications were identical other than the name. That is, there are no other factors affecting the hiring of the candidate other than their gender.

After rating the candidates the researcher can compute the mean rating for both the groups.

To determine whether there is any difference between the two means, the researcher can use the <em>t</em>-test for the difference between two means to draw conclusions about the experiment.

Thus, the hypothesis test appropriate to be used here is <em>t</em>-test for the difference between two means.

Cindy spent $15.25 on ingredients for a blueberry pie and $12.84 on ingredients for a cherry pie. Each slice of pie sells for $3
alexandr402 [8]

Answer:

3.50(b+c)-28.09

Step-by-step explanation:

Let, the number of blueberry slices = b and number of cherry slices = c.

As, each slice sells for the price of $3.50.

Thus, the revenue of total slices sold = 3.50(b+c)

Also, the money spent on ingredients of both the pie is $15.25 and $12.84 respectively.

Thus, the total selling cost of the slices = $15.25 + $12.84 = $28.09.

So, we have,

Cindy's profit = Revenue - Cost

i.e. Cindy's profit = 3.50(b+c)-28.09

Hence, the required expression is 3.50(b+c)-28.09.
