ISYE NEWEST FINAL EXAM PREP QUIZ
If f(x, y) = cxy for all 0 < x < 1 and 1 < y < 2, where c is
whatever value makes this thing integrate to 1, then X and
Y are independent random variables - ...ANSWER...✓✓
TRUE. (Because f(x, y) = a(x)b(y) factors nicely, and there
are no funny limits.)
In our Arena Call Center example, it was possible for
entities to be left in the system when it shut down at 7:00
p.m. (even though we stopped allowing customers to
enter the system at 6:00 p.m.). - ...ANSWER...✓✓ TRUE —
because of the small chance that a callback will occur.
An entity can be scheduled to visit the same resource
twice, with different service time distributions on the two
visits! - ...ANSWER...✓✓ TRUE
Arena has a built-in Input Analyzer tool that allows for
the fitting of certain distributions to data. -
...ANSWER...✓✓ TRUE

The Kolmogorov-Smirnov test can be used both to see (i)
if data seem to fit to a particular hypothesized distribution
and (ii) if the data are independent. - ...ANSWER...✓✓
FALSE. (It's just a goodness-of-fit test.)
Welch's method is a graphical technique to estimate
truncation (initialization bias) points for steady-state
simulation. - ...ANSWER...✓✓ TRUE
If you are using a ranking-and-selection procedure and
two competitors happen to fall within the indifference-
zone, then you don't really care too much which one you
end up selecting. - ...ANSWER...✓✓ TRUE. That's why it's
called the IZ!
TRUE or FALSE? Sequential ranking-and-selection
procedures are designed to stop early if one alternative
seems to be way out in front of the others. -
...ANSWER...✓✓ TRUE
Suppose, when designing a ranking-and-selection
procedure, you have decided to increase the desired
probability of correct selection compared to a previous
