Kay and Micheal Passe publish what's Happening?--a biweekly newspaper to publicize local events. whats happening? has a few subscribers; it typically is sold at checkout stands. Much of the revenue comes from advertisers of garage sales and supermarket specials. In an effort to reduce costs associated with printing too many papers or delivering them to the wrong location, Micheal implemented a computerized system to collect sales data. Sales-counter scanners accurately record sales data for each location. Since the system was implemented, total sales volume has steadily declined. selling advertising space and maintainting shelf space at supermarkets are getting deifficult. Reduced revenue makes controlling costs all the more important. For each issue. Micheal caefully makes a forecast based on sales data collected at each location. Then he orders papers to be printed and distributed in quantities matching the forecast. Micheal's forecast refect a downward trend, which is present in the…
Problem 1Human visual inspection is necessary in many quality engineering contexts and is naturallysubject to subjectivity. This is especially true for the inspection of solder joints on circuit boards,as there are numerous types of solder defects, as well as a degree to which a joint possessesone or more defect. Consequently, even highly trained inspectors can disagree on the status ofa particular joint. In a batch of 10,000 such joints, inspector A found 724 to be defective,inspect B found 751 to be defective, and 1159 of the joints were judged to be defective by atleast one of the inspectors. Suppose that one of the 10,000 joints is randomly selected.a. What is the probability that the selected joint was judged to be defective by neither ofthe two inspectors?b. What is the probability that the selected joint was judged to be defective by inspector Bbut not by inspector A?

Study B: The decoy effect is the phenomenon that an additional but worse option can boost the appeal of an existing option. In order to get workers at food-processing factories in China to comply with hygiene standards (i.e., using hand sanitizer every hour), researchers manipulated whether there were additional options to the standard and convenient spray bottle provided to each employee. Workers in different rooms were randomly assigned to have just the standard spray bottle, or the standard spray bottle and an inconvenient squeeze bottle. Quality control personnel kept track of hand sanitizer use (weighing the bottles before and after each shift) and sanitary condition (sample wipes assessing the number of bacteria on hands). Neither the employees or quality control personnel were aware of the experiment or its hypothesis. The researchers found that when a decoy was present, workers used more sanitizer and were more likely to pass hand sanitary tests. In this example, it was…
