Description
Please see attached question.
Unformatted Attachment Preview
Sands, Inc., makes particleboard for the building industry. Particleboard is built by mixing wood
chips and resins together and pressing the sheets under extreme heat and pressure to form a 4-
feet X 8-feet sheet that is used as a substitute for plywood. The strength of the particleboards is
tied to the board's weight. Boards that are too light are brittle and do not meet the quality
standard for strength. Boards that are too heavy are strong but are difficult for customers to
handle. The company knows that there will be variation in the boards' weight. Product
specifications call for the weight per sheet to average 10 pounds with a standard deviation of
1.75 pounds. During each shift, Sands employees select and weigh a random sample of 25
boards. The boards are thought to have a normally distributed weight distribution.
If the average of the sample slips below 9.60 pounds, an adjustment is made to the process to
add more moisture and resins to increase the weight (and, Sands hopes, the strength).
a. Assuming that the process is operating correctly according to specifications, what is the
probability that a sample will indicate that an adjustment is needed?
b. Assume the population mean weight per sheet slips to 9 pounds. Determine the probability
that the sample will indicate an adjustment is not needed.

Rasmussen College Zero Sum Games Optimal Strategies Paper
Instructions
A night club owner has just changed ownership and the new owner has contracted G&B consulting to help decide the direction the club will take. Based on the local music scene, it would make the most sense to book either rock bands or country bands. The new owner is aware that a competing night club is hoping to attract new customers while the new club is getting itself established. Since these are the only two night clubs in town competing to book the same bands, whatever market share is gained by one is lost by the other making this a zero-sum game. The new club owner has hired you to find the optimum strategy for this situation.

The candidate films are: Abraham Lincoln Vampire Hunter, The Babadook, Cabin Fever, and Dead Snow (A, B, C, D for short). The following table gives the preference schedule for the election.How many students voted? How many first place votes are needed for a majority?Use the plurality method to find the winner of the election.Use the Borda count method to find the winner of the election.Use the plurality-with-elimination method to find the winner of the election.Use the pairwise-comparisons method to find the winner of the election.Three players (April, Brandy and Cindy) are sharing a cake. Suppose that the cake is divided into three slices (s1, s2, s3). The following table gives the value of each slice in the eyes of each of the players. (A fair share would be 1/3 = 0.333 = 33.3% or greater.)hree players (Adam, Bob and Chad) are sharing a cake. Suppose that the cake is divided into three slices (s1, s2, s3). The percentages represent the value of the slice as a percent of the value of the entire cake. (A fair share would be 1/3 = 0.333 = 33.3% or greater.)

Lesson
Chamberlain University Library
Scenario/Summary
The highlight of this week's lab is confidence intervals and the use of these intervals in the health sciences. There is a short reading that specifically relates confidence intervals to health sciences and then you are asked to demonstrate your knowledge of confidence intervals by applying them in a practical manner.
Deliverables
The deliverable is a Word document with your answers to the questions posed below based on the article you find.

Steps to Complete the Week 7 Lab
Step 1: Find these articles in the Chamberlain Library. Once you click each link, you will be logged into the Library and then click on "PDF Full Text".
First Article: Confidence Intervals, Part 1 (Links to an external site.) (Links to an external site.)Links to an external site. (Links to an external site.)
Second Article: Confidence Intervals, Part 2 (Links to an external site.) (Links to an external site.)Links to an external site. (Links to an external site.)
Step 2: Consider the use of confidence intervals in health sciences with these articles as inspiration and insights.
Step 3: Using the data you collected for the Week 5 Lab (heights of 10 different people that you work with), discuss your method of collection for the values that you are using in your study. What are some faults with this type of data collection? What other type of data collection could you have used, and how might this have affected your study?
Step 4: Now use the Week 6 Spreadsheet (Links to an external site.) to help you with calculations for the following questions/statements.
Give a point estimate for the average height of all people at the place where you work. Start by putting the ten heights you are working with into the blue Data column of the spreadsheet. What is your point estimate, and what does this mean?
Find a 95% confidence interval for the true mean height of all the people at your place of work. What is the interval?
Give a practical interpretation of the interval you found in part b, and explain carefully what the output means. (For example, you might say, "I am 95% confident that the true mean height of all of the people in my company is between 64 inches and 68 inches").
Post a screenshot of your work from the t value Confidence Interval for µ from the Confidence Interval tab on the Week 6 Excel spreadsheet
Step 5: Now, find a 99% confidence interval for the same data. Would the margin of error be larger or smaller for the 99% CI? Explain your reasoning.
Step 6: Save the Week 7 Lab document with your answers and include your name in the title.
Step 7: Submit the document.
