A structural engineer is evaluating three alternative designs on the basis of four performance measures: construction cost, structural integrity, the expected average lifetime condition (resistance to freeze and freeze-thaw cycles), and the effects of the bridge construction on the environment, each having relative importance weights of 0.3, 0.4, 0.2, and 0.1 respectively. For the overall structural integrity (OSI), the index is 0 (worst) to 5 (best); life-cycle cost is in $millions; lifetime condition is an index ranging from 0 (worst) to 20 (best); and the environmental consequences (EC) is an index ranging from 0 (best) to 50 (worst). The utility functions Uj are provided as follows:
UOSI = 16.33(OSI)Ucost = -20.898(cost)+ 175.19 (where cost is in $millions)Ucondition = 5(condition)UEC = -0.1235(EC)2 + 3.0745(EC)+ 82.673
The levels of each performance criterion (PC) for material are given in the table below.

(a) Using the basic weighted additive method of multiple criteria evaluation, determine which design should be recommended for the new structure.
(b) What must be the percentage reduction in Design A's cost for that alternative to be the optimal choice?
Describe each set of data with a histogram (use the same class intervals on both histograms) the mean, standard deviation.
Select a well-designed sample of at least 30 units. (Describe the population to be studied and the sampling frame). Two variables should be measured with a potential for correlation; if you measure more than two variables, you must correlate two at a..

weights of pacific yellowfin tuna follow a normal distribution with mean weight 68 lb and standard deviation 12 lb. a
What information does each measure of central tendency provide? Why are measures of variability essential statistical tools for describing behavior?
Let f be a Lipschitzian function on X and E a subset of X where f L on X is the same as for its restriction to E . Let x ∈ X \E . Does f on E uniquely determine f on X?
