A vending machine sells juice and pop. • The machine holds, at most,
200 cans of drinks. • Sales from the vending machine show that at least 3 cans of juice are
sold for each can of pop. • Each can of juice sells for $1.50, and each can of pop sells for

a) Use confidence intervals to interpret the following statement and
apply the result to a graduating class of 1400 students. In a recent survey, 72% of post-secondary
graduates indicated that they expected to earn at least $6000/month by the time they were ready to
retire. The survey is considered accurate within ±5.2%, 19 times in 20. b) How could
they increase the confidence level of their result?

An advertisement for a new toothpaste states that 80% of users reported better
dental check-ups. The results of the poll are accurate within 4 percent points, 9 times out of
10. a) State the confidence level. b) Determine the confidence interval. c)
In a focus group of 50 students, four said they already used this toothpaste and another five did
not want to try it. Determine the range of the mean number of the remaining students who could expect
better dental check-ups.

Two different market research companies conducted a survey on the same issue.
Company A used a 90% confidence level and company B used a 95% confidence level. a) If both
companies used the same sample size, what does this imply about the margin of error for each
survey? b) If both companies used the same margin of error of ±3.5%, what does this
imply about the sample size for each survey?

Four teams are travelling to a lacrosse tournament in cars and
minivans. • Each team has no more than 2 coaches and 13 athletes. • Each car can
take 4 team members, and each minivan can take 7 team members. • No more than 5 minivans and
8 cars are available. The school wants to know the combination of cars and minivans that will require
the maximum number of vehicles. Create and verify a model to represent this situation. a)
Use the optimization model to determine the combination of cars and minivans that will use the
maximum number of vehicles. b) How many team members can travel in the maximum number of
vehicles? Optimization Model
Let V represent the total number of
vehicles. Let c represent the number of cars. Let m represent the number of
minivans. Restrictions: c Î W, m Î W Constraints: c 
0 m  0 4 c + 7 m  60 c  8 m  5 Objective function to maximize: V =

The stylists in a hair salon cut hair for women and men. • The salon
books at least 3 women’s appointments for every man’s appointment. • Usually
there are 120 or more appointments, in total, during a week. • The salon is trying to reduce
the number of hours the stylists work. • A woman’s cut takes about 60 min, and a
man’s cut takes about 25 min. What combination of women’s and men’s appointments
would minimize the number of hours the stylists work? How many hours would this be?
