a. The point estimate of the married people that sleep well is = 0.6299. The confidence interval for the mean hours of sleep for those that have never been married but report good sleep is 0.6186, 0.6412

b. The point estimate of the number of hours for people that have never been married = 7.2257

95% confidence interval for the mean number of hours of sleep for those who have never been married = 7.2065, 7.2447

c. the estimated number of sleep for those that have never been married = 7.729 hours

a. The point estimate

$P=\frac{Xp}{n}$

$Xp = successes\\n = sample size\\$

Those who have never been married n = 7044

Xp = those who sleep for 7 hours at least

To get Xp, the excel function

Countif(range, criteria)

Countif(A:A, >=7)

This gives Xp = 4437

Point estimate =

$\frac{4477}{7044}$

= 0.6299

The point estimate of the married people that sleep well is = 0.6299

At 95% interval of confidence,

α = 1-0.95 = 0.05

α/2 = 0.05/2 = 0.025

Z0.025 = 1.96 ( Use the standard probability normal table)

Margin of Error

= $M.E = 1.96\sqrt \frac{0.6299(1-0.6299)}{7044} \\\\= 1.96\sqrt{0.000033} \\\\1.96*0.0057$

= 0.0113

The 95% confidence interval

= 0.6299 - 0.0113 , 0.6299 + 0.0113

= 0.6186, 0.6412

The confidence interval for the mean hours of sleep for those that have never been married is 0.6186, 0.6412

b. Sample mean

x = ∑x/n

x = number of sleep of the never been married

Mean is calculated using excel function

Average(range)

Average(a:a)

This gives the sample mean = 7.2257

The point estimate of the number of hours for people that have never been married = 7.2257

Standard deviation using excel =

Stdev(A:A) = 0.8211

$Margin of error =1.96*\frac{0.8211}{\sqrt{7044} }$

= 0.0192

The confidence interval =

= 7.2257-0.0192, 7.2257+0.0192

= 7.2065, 7.2447

95% confidence interval for the mean number of hours of sleep for those who have never been married = 7.2065, 7.2447

c. From the available data, the mean number of sleep per day that is gotten from the 4437 people that are unmarried and sleep healthily for at least 7 hours = 34295.1

Mean = 34295.1/4437

= 7.729

the estimated number of sleep for those that have never been married = 7.729 hours

Business Manager HeatherGuite expects her employees to be displeased or even hostile when she announces a new work schedule that

anzhelika [568]

Answer:

explain all background information first

Explanation:

Imagine how bad the work schedule is for a manager to be worried about their employees' reaction. When you have to deal with very bad solutions and their consequences, you must do it in a proper manner so things don't get worse. By explaining the background information first, Heather will be able to explain why she is making that decision and has a better chance of her employees understanding that it is something necessary. We are not told what the changes are or shy the changes are being made, but we know that they are very serious.

Heather must deal with her employees' tolerance levels, and their is a difference between absolute and relative tolerance. Absolute tolerance refers to tolerating other people's behavior just because you are polite and you don't want to cause more trouble, and relative tolerance refers to tolerating a bad situation because you know that there is valid cause for it. Heather must rely on her employees' relative tolerance.

Beginning inventory, purchases and sales data for tennis rackets are as follows:

IRISSAK [1]

Answer:

Cost of goods sold = $836

Ending inventory = $315

Explanation:

a) Data and Calculations:

Date Description Units Unit Price Balance

Apr. 1 Inventory 12 $45 $540

Apr. 11 Purchase 13 $47 $1,151 ($540 + 13 * $47)

Apr. 14 Sale (18) $100 $315 ($7 * $45)

Sales revenue = $1,800 ($100 * 18)

Cost of goods sold = $836 ($47 * 13 + $45 * 5)

Ending inventory = $315 ($7 * $45)

b) Under the LIFO (Last in, First out) inventory valuation method, it is assumed that goods that were purchased closest to the selling date were the ones to be sold while those purchased earlier remain in inventory.
