Aconsumer is trying to decide between two long»distance calling plans. the first one charges a flat rate of 10c per minute. whereas the second charges a flat rate of 99cfor calls up to 20 minutes in duration and thenloc for each additional minuteexceeding 20 (assume that calls lasting a noninteger number of minutes are charged proportionately to a whole-minute’scharge). suppose the consumer’s distribution of call duration is exponential with parameter. a. explain intuitively how the choice of calling plan should depend on what the expected call duration is. b. which plan is better if expected call duration is 10 minutes? 15 minutes? [hint: let h1(x) denote the cost for the first planwhen call duration is x minutes and let h2(x) be the cost function for the second plan. give expressions for these two costfunctions. and then determine the expected cost for each plan]

Atest of sobriety involves measuring the subject's motor skills. a sample of 31 randomly selected sober subjects take the test and produce a mean score of 64.4 with a standard deviation of 2. a claim is made that the true mean score for all sober subjects is equal to 65. for each part below, enter only a numeric value in the answer box. for example, do not type "z =" or "t =" before your answers. round each of your answers to 3 places after the decimal point. (a) calculate the value of the test statistic used in this test. test statistic's value = (b) use your calculator to find the p-value of this test. p-value = (c) use your calculator to find the critical value(s) used to test this claim at the 0.2 significance level. if there are two critical values, then list them both with a comma between them. critical value(s) =
