The population consisting of all married couples is collected. The data showing the age of 12 married couples is as follows:
| Husband’s age (years) | Wife’s age (years) | Husband’s age (years) | Wife’s age (years) |
| 32 | 27 | 51 | 50 |
| 25 | 30 | 48 | 46 |
| 36 | 34 | 37 | 36 |
| 72 | 65 | 50 | 42 |
| 37 | 37 | 51 | 46 |
| 36 | 38 | 36 | 35 |
i) Draw a scatter plot of the data
ii) Write two important characteristics of the data that emerge from the scatter plot.
iii) Fit a linear regression model to the data and interpret the result in terms of the comparative change in the age of husband and wife.
iv) Calculate the standard error of regression and the coefficient of determination for the data.
Let husband’s age be denoted by (X) and wife’s age by (Y). The 12 observed pairs are ((32,27),(25,30),(36,34),(72,65),(37,37),(36,38),(51,50),(48,46),(37,36),(50,42),(51,46),(36,35)). (i) The scatter plot is obtained by plotting husband’s age on the horizontal axis and wife’s age on the vertical axis for each of the 12 couples.

Ships arrive at a port at the rate of one in every 6 hours with exponential distribution of inter-arrival times. The time a ship occupies a berth for unloading has exponential distribution with an average of 12 hours. If the average delay of ships waiting for berths is to be kept below 15 hours, how many berths should be provided at the port?
Maximize , subject to the constraints

Companies considering the purchase of a computer must first assess their future needs in order to determine the proper equipment. A computer scientist collected data from seven similar company sites so that computer hardware requirements for inventory management could be developed. The data collected is as follows:
| Customer Orders (in thousands) | Add-delete items (in thousands) | CPU time (in hours) |
| 123.5 | 2.108 | 141.5 |
| 146.1 | 9.213 | 168.9 |
| 133.9 | 1.905 | 154.8 |
| 128.5 | 0.815 | 146.5 |
| 151.5 | 1.061 | 172.8 |
| 136.2 | 8.603 | 160.1 |
| 92.0 | 1.125 | 108.5 |
A library wants to improve its service facilities in terms of the waiting time of its borrowers. The library has two counters at present and borrowers arrive according to Poisson distribution with arrival rate 2 every 10 minutes and service time follows exponential distribution with a mean of 15 minutes. The library has relaxed its membership rules and a substantial increase in the number of borrowers is expected. Find the number of additional counters to be provided if the arrival rate is expected to be twice the present value and the average waiting time of the borrower must be limited to half the present value.
