Operations managers often use work sampling to estimate how much time workers spend on each operation. Work sampling—which involves observing workers at random points in time—was applied to the staff of the catalog sales department of a clothing manufacturer. The department applied regression to the following data collected for 40 consecutive working days:

TIME:  y = Time spent (in hours) taking telephone orders during the day

ORDERS: x1 = Number of telephone orders received during the day

WEEK: x2 = 1 weekday, 0 if Saturday or Sunday

Consider the complete 2nd-order model:

E(y) = β0 + β1x1 + β2(x1)2 + β3x2 + β4x1x2 + β5(x1)2x2

Explain how to conduct a test to determine if a quadratic relationship between total order time and the number of orders taken is necessary in the regression model above. Specify the null and alternative hypotheses that are to be tested.

The use of salicylates dates back 2,500 years to Hippocrates's recommendation of willow bark (from which a salicylate is derived) as an aid to the pains of childbirth. However, overdosage of salicylates can harm body fluids, electrolytes, the CNS, the GI tract, the ears, the lungs, the blood, the liver, and the kidneys and cause coma or death.

It is believed that the Incas used anesthesia. Evidence supports the theory that shamans chewed cocoa leaves and drilled holes into the heads of patients (letting evil spirits escape), spitting into the wounds they made. The mixture of cocaine, saliva, and resin numbed the site enough to allow hours of drilling.

Though the United States has largely rejected the metric system, it is used for currency, as in 100 pennies = 1 dollar. Previously, the British currency system was used, with measurements such as 12 pence to the shilling, and 20 shillings to the pound.

People with alcoholism are at a much greater risk of malnutrition than are other people and usually exhibit low levels of most vitamins (especially folic acid). This is because alcohol often takes the place of 50% of their daily intake of calories, with little nutritional value contained in it.
