A certain type of chocolate bar is sold as follows.

Scrat [10]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

You would never buy a 10-pack, because two 5-packs cost less.

To buy 3 bars you need a single bar and a pair of single bars for £0.82 + £0.82+ £0.41 = £2.05

To buy 30 bars you need 3 pairs of 5-bar packs = 3×£5.75 = £17.25

To buy the remaining 5 bars you need one 5-bar pack = £3

cost = £2.05 + £17.25 + £3 = £22.30

Determine the utilization and the efficiency for each situations:A. A loan processing operation that processes an average of 7 l

Vera_Pavlovna [14]

Answer:

A) Utilization = 70%

Efficiency = 87.5%

B) Utilization = 66.67%

Efficiency = 80%

Step-by-step explanation:

Determine the utilization and the efficiency for each situations:

A. A loan processing operation that processes an average of 7 loans per day. The operation has a design capacity of 10 loans per day and an effective capacity of 8 loans per day.

Formula for Utilization = Actual Output /

Design Capacity × 100

Actual output = 7 loans per day

Design capacity = 10 loans per day

Utilization = 7/10 × 100

= 70%

Efficiency = Actual output / Effective capacity × 100

Actual output = 7 loans per day

Effective capacity = 8 loans per day

Efficiency = 7/8 × 100

= 87.5%

B. A furnace repair team that services and average of four furnaces a day if the design capacity is six furnaces a day and the effective capacity is five furnaces a day.

Formula for Utilization = Actual Output /

Design Capacity × 100

Actual output = four furnaces a day

Design capacity = six furnaces a day

Utilization = 4/6 × 100

= 66.67%

Efficiency = Actual output / Effective capacity × 100

Actual output = four furnaces a day

Effective capacity = five furnaces a day

Efficiency = 4/5 × 100

= 80%

5) In a certain supermarket, a sample of 60 customers who used a self-service checkout lane averaged 5.2 minutes of checkout tim

Ne4ueva [31]

Answer:

$\S^2_p =\frac{(60-1)(3.1)^2 +(72 -1)(2.8)^2}{60 +72 -2}=8.643$

$S_p=2.940$

$t=\frac{(5.2 -6.1)-(0)}{2.940\sqrt{\frac{1}{60}+\frac{1}{72}}}=-1.751$

$df=60+72-2=130$

$p_v =P(t_{130}$

Assuming a significance level of $\alpha=0.05$ we have that the p value is lower than this significance level so then we can conclude that the mean for checkout time is significantly less for people who use the self-service lane

Step-by-step explanation:

Data given

Our notation on this case :

$n_1 =60$ represent the sample size for people who used a self service

$n_2 =72$ represent the sample size for people who used a cashier

$\bar X_1 =5.2$ represent the sample mean for people who used a self service

$\bar X_2 =6.1$ represent the sample mean people who used a cashier

$s_1=3.1$ represent the sample standard deviation for people who used a self service

$s_2=2.8$ represent the sample standard deviation for people who used a cashier

Assumptions

When we have two independent samples from two normal distributions with equal variances we are assuming that

$\sigma^2_1 =\sigma^2_2 =\sigma^2$

The statistic is given by:

$t=\frac{(\bar X_1 -\bar X_2)-(\mu_{1}-\mu_2)}{S_p\sqrt{\frac{1}{n_1}+\frac{1}{n_2}}}$

And t follows a t distribution with $n_1+n_2 -2$ degrees of freedom and the pooled variance $S^2_p$ is given by this formula:

$\S^2_p =\frac{(n_1-1)S^2_1 +(n_2 -1)S^2_2}{n_1 +n_2 -2}$

System of hypothesis

Null hypothesis: $\mu_1 \geq \mu_2$

Alternative hypothesis: $\mu_1 < \mu_2$

This system is equivalent to:

Null hypothesis: $\mu_1 - \mu_2 \geq 0$

Alternative hypothesis: $\mu_1 -\mu_2 < 0$

We can find the pooled variance:

$\S^2_p =\frac{(60-1)(3.1)^2 +(72 -1)(2.8)^2}{60 +72 -2}=8.643$

And the deviation would be just the square root of the variance:

$S_p=2.940$

The statistic is given by:

$t=\frac{(5.2 -6.1)-(0)}{2.940\sqrt{\frac{1}{60}+\frac{1}{72}}}=-1.751$

The degrees of freedom are given by:

$df=60+72-2=130$

And now we can calculate the p value with:

$p_v =P(t_{130}$

Assuming a significance level of $\alpha=0.05$ we have that the p value is lower than this significance level so then we can conclude that the mean for checkout time is significantly less for people who use the self-service lane

matt can buy an 8-ounce jar of salsa for $2.79 or a 15-ounce jar os salsa for $5.54. which jar has the best unit rate?

oee [108]

8/2.79 = 1/2.867, or $2.86 per each oz
15/5.54 = 2.707/1, or 2 oz for every 1 dollar

the 15 oz jar of salsa has the better unit rate

hope this helps
