Review the following example: Example: Compared the smoking cessation rates for smokers randomly assigned to use a nicotine patch versus a placebo patch.  Null: There is no difference in smoking rates from smokers who were randomly assigned to a nicotine patch and those assigned to a placebo patch. Alternative: There is a difference in smoking rates from smokers who were randomly assigned to a nicotine patch and those assigned to a placebo patch. Using your dissertation work, develop your null and alternative hypotheses that are written in correct form and measurable.  Once these have been developed, determine the descriptive and inferential statistics you will use.  Include a brief written explanation of how this might be analyzed WHAT I COMPLETED SO FAR Null: There is no difference in the production rates of employees who work in a traditional office setting and those who work remotely. Alternative: There is a difference in production rates from employees who work in a traditional office setting and those who work remotely.  The variables being tested during this study is the production rates, telecommuting workers, and traditional office workers. This will be analyzed through surveys with human resources departments are various organizations in the Pittsburgh area. Many of the selected organizations switched from a traditional office setting to telecommuting during the Covid 19 pandemic which provides recent and accurate data available for the study. 

The Cookie Factory wants to sell chocolate chip and peanut butter cookies in combination packages of 6-­12 cookies. At least three of each type of cookie should be in each package. The cost of making a chocolate chip cookie is 19 cents, and the selling price is 44 cents each. The cost of making a peanut butter cookie is 13 cents, and the selling price is 39 cents. How many of each type of cookie should be in each package to maximize the profit?

Hi, I need someone to help for my Technology-Enabled Operations class homework. I have attached the file. Thank you Wendy's Wonder Wagons Wendy's Wonder Wagons manufactures brightly-colored, battery-powered wagons that will be scattered about the streets of cities to allow people to haul groceries, dogs, and small children. Below is a simplified process flow diagram for production of the wagons. Forming Coating Assembly 20 min (batch of 10 min 1_4 units) 15 min The forming machine takes 10 minutes to convert plastic pellets into a wagon body. The coating machine takes 20 minutes, and it spray coats (with a single color) up to four wagon bodies simultaneously. Wagon bodies then go to a drying room (with plenty of space) and air dry for 3 hours. Assembly takes 15 minutes to attach the wheels, power unit, and handle. Cross-trained workers are available so we don't need to worry about labor scheduling. We'll focus on steady state and not concern ourselves with start-up and shut down — you can assume the production system operates non-stop, 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. Currently, Wendy's Wonder Wagons is making one unit of each color at a time — e.g., a lime green wagon, then an iridescent puce wagon, then a luminous red wagon, etc. Assume they are running at full capacity. A. Base Case (steady-state, running at full capacity) a. What is the bottleneck task? b. What is the capacity of the production process, in wagons per 24-hour day? c. What is the throughput time? d. What is the average number of wagon bodies in the drying room? B. Wendy would like to increase capacity. She wants you to evaluate the proposals below. For each, indicate the resulting production capacity (in wagons per 24-hour day), and the throughput time. Briefly indicate why it has changed (or not changed) from the base case. Be sure to provide any calculations you made. a. Acquire a second forming machine b. Increase the batch size of the coating machine to 6 units, continuing to produce 1 unit of each color at a time. c.Produce wagons in batches of 4 (i.e., 4 sunshine yellow, then 4 ornery orange, etc.) d. Use a fast-drying coating material so the wagon bodies dry in only 10 minutes
