A sales analyst listed the probabilities of profits and losses in dollars for a certain company. Find the mean, µ for the probability distribution.

x P(x)
-500 0.076
-250 0.191
0 0.265
250 0.316
500 0.152

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

The mean is [tex]\mu = 69.25[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the following distribution:

P(x = -500) = 0.076

P(x = -250) = 0.191

P(x = 0) = 0.265

P(x = 250) = 0.316

P(x = 500) = 0.152

Find the mean, µ for the probability distribution.

To find the mean, we multiply each outcome by its probability. So

[tex]\mu = -500*0.076 - 250*0.191 + 0*0.265 + 250*0.316 + 500*0.152 = 69.25[/tex]

The mean is [tex]\mu = 69.25[/tex]

a. there could be a problem of high error

b. randomized block design can remove the issue of heterogeneity

c. yes they should

d, yes it could

Step-by-step explanation:

a. if their is a lack of homogeneity among the sample population, then the results that would be obtained are going to be with increased experimental error.

b. given the number of treatment, the randomized block design technique can be done. This would then remove the issue of heterogeneity. It also gives more information and the results from the test are easier. Even in the presence of missing data, the missing plot technique can be employed.

c. when a control group is used, it makes easier the examination of the market research in a more effective way.

d. Yes it could be a double blind one. This would help to take away the problem of bias.

Answer:

  AC ≈ 6.8 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

For legs a and b of a right triangle with hypotenuse c, the Pythagorean theorem tells us ...

  a = √(c² -b²)

Using this relation, we can find legs CE and AE.

  CE = √(3² -2²) = √5

  AE = √(5² -2²) = √21

AC is the sum of these two lengths:

  AC = AE +EC = √21 +√5

  AC ≈ 6.8 cm

Answer:

A dilation by a factor of three about Point T followed by a translation of two units downwards.

Step-by-step explanation:

When transforming functions, we will reflect/dilate the figure first and then translate it. This is directly from the order of operations.

Since we are trying to determine the transformation that was performed, we can try to map ΔS'T'U' onto ΔSTU. We can start by translating the figure and then determining any reflections/dilations.

First, we can translate ΔS'T'U' up two units to map T' onto T. This is represented by the black triangle in the image below. Let the black triangle be ΔS''T''U''. (T'' and T are the same point.)

Next, notice that from Point T'' to U'', we move nine units right and six units up.

From Point T to Point U, we move three units right and two units up.

Likewise, from Point T'' to S'', we move six units left and nine units up.

From Point T to Point S, we move two units left and three units up.

Therefore, to map ΔS''T''U'' onto ΔSTU, we dilate ΔS''T''U'' about Point T by a factor of 1/3.

Hence, by reversing the transformations, to acquire ΔS'T'U', we can see that we will dilate ΔSTU by a factor of three about Point T and then a perform a translation of two units downwards.

Based on the Pythagorean theorem , find the missing length for each of the given right triangles

Answers

Answer:

See Explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

The question is incomplete, as the right trianglea are not given. The general explanation is as follows.

Using Pythagoras Theorem, we have:

a² = b² + c²

Where:

a => hypotenuse

Assume that the opposite and the adjacent sides are given as 3 and 4, respectively.

The hypotension becomes

a² = 3² + 4²

a² = 9 + 16.

a² = 25

Take square roots.

a = 5

If any of the other side lengths is missing; you make that side the subject and then solve.


Describe and correct the error in finding DC

Answers

Answer:

DC = 2

Step-by-step explanation:

The wrong equation was used.

The right equation to use based on the midsegment theorem of a trapezoid is:

MN = ½(AB + DC)

MN = 8

AB = 14

Substitute

8 = ½(14 + DC)

Multiply both sides by 2

8*2 = ½(14 + DC)*2

2*8 = 14 + DC

16 = 14 + DC

16 - 14 = 14 + DC - 14

2 = DC

DC = 2

When a factory operates from 6 AM to 6 PM, its total fuel consumption varies according to the formula f(t)=0.9t^3−0.6t^0.5+10, where t is the time in hours after 6 AM and f(t) is the number of barrels of fuel oil. Step 1 of 3 : How much fuel is consumed by 11 AM? Round your answer to 2 decimal places.

Answers

Step-by-step explanation:

the answer is in the image above

The amount of oil consumed in 5 hours is 120.5 barrels.

What is an equation?

In mathematics, an equation is a formula that expresses the equality of two expressions, by connecting them with the equals sign =.

Given is an equation, of fuel consumption in a factory from 6 am to 6 pm,

The equation =

f(t) = 0.9t³-0.6[tex]t^{0.5}[/tex]+10

where t is the time in hours after 6 am and f(t) is the number of barrels of fuel oil.

We need to find the how much oil is consumed by 11 am,

So, the hours between 11 am to 6 am = 11-6 = 5 hours

So, we need to find the oil consumption in 5 hours, so for the same put t = 5, in the equation,

f(5) = 0.9(5)³-0.6[tex](5)^{0.5[/tex]+10

= 112.5-2+10

= 120.5

Hence, the amount of oil consumed in 5 hours is 120.5 barrels.

Answer:

So, to fill the tray completely , he needs 3 bags of sand.

Step-by-step explanation:

Tray dimensions,

length = 0.8 m

Width = 0.6 m

height = 0.1 m

Volume of one sand bag = 17000 cm^3

Let the volume of the tray is V.

V = length x idth x height

V = 0.8 x 0.6 x 0.1 = 0.048 m^3

Number of sand bags

We are given the system of equations -:

[tex] \large{ \begin{cases} 2x + 3y = - 14 \\ y = 6x + 22 \end{cases}}[/tex]

Since the second equation is y-isolated equation. It can be substituted as y = 6x+22 in the first equation.

[tex] \large{2x + 3(6x + 22) = - 14}[/tex]

Expand 3 in the expression so we can combine like terms and isolate x-variable.

[tex] \large{2x + 18x + 66 = - 14}[/tex]

Then combine like terms.

[tex] \large{20x + 66 = - 14}[/tex]

Get rid of 66 from the left side by subtracting both sides by itself.

[tex] \large{20x + 66 - 66 = - 14 - 66} \\ \large{20x = - 80}[/tex]

To finally isolate the variable, divide both sides by 20 so we can leave x only on the left side.

[tex] \large{ \frac{20x}{20} = \frac{ - 80}{20} }[/tex]

Simplify to the simplest form.
