Answer 1

The revenue function is a quadratic equation and the graph of the function

has the shape of a parabola that is concave downwards.

The correct responses are;

(a) R = -x² + 82·x(b) $1,645(c) The graph of R has a maximum because the leading coefficient of the quadratic function for R is negative.(d)  R = -1·(x - 41)² + 1,681(e) 41(f) $1,681

Reasons:

The given function that gives the weekly revenue is; R = x·(82 - x)

Where;

R = The revenue in dollars

x = The number of lunches

(a) The revenue can be written in the form R = a·x² + b·x + c by expansion of the given function as follows;

R = x·(82 - x) = 82·x - x²

Which gives;

R = -x² + 82·x

Where, the constant term, c = 0

(b) When 35 launches are sold, we have;

x = 35

Which by plugging in the value of x = 35, gives;

R = 35 × (82 - 35) = 1,645

The revenue when 35 lunches are sold, R = $1,645

(c) The given function for R is R = x·(82 - x) = -x² + 82·x

Given that the leading coefficient is negative, the shape of graph of the

function R is concave downward, and therefore, the graph has only a

maximum point.

(d) The form a·(x - h)² + k is the vertex form of quadratic equation, where;

(h, k) = The vertex of the equation

a = The leading coefficient

The function, R = x·(82 - x), can be expressed in the form a·(x - h)² + k, as follows;

R = x·(82 - x) = -x² + 82·x

At the vertex, of the equation; f(x) = a·x² + b·x + c,  we have;

[tex]\displaystyle x = \mathbf{-\frac{b}{2 \cdot a}}[/tex]

Therefore, for the revenue function, the x-value of the vertex, is; [tex]\displaystyle x = -\frac{82}{2 \times (-1)} = \mathbf{41}[/tex]

The revenue at the vertex is; [tex]R_{max}[/tex] = 41×(82 - 41) = 1,681

Which gives;

(h, k) = (41, 1,681)

a = -1 (The coefficient of x² in -x² + 82·x)

The revenue equation in the form, a·(x - h)² + k is; R = -1·(x - 41)² + 1,681

(e) The number of lunches that must be sold to achieve the maximum revenue is given by the x-value at the vertex, which is; x = 41

Therefore;

The number of lunches that must be sold for the maximum revenue to be achieved is 41 lunches

(f) The maximum revenue is given by the revenue at the vertex point where x = 41, which is; R = $1,681

The maximum revenue of the company is $1,681

The automatic opening device of a military cargo parachute has been designed to open when the parachute is 185 m above the ground. Suppose opening altitude actually has a normal distribution with mean value 185 and standard deviation 32 m. Equipment damage will occur if the parachute opens at an altitude of less than 100 m. What is the probability that there is equipment damage to the payload of at least one of five independently dropped parachutes

Answers

Answer:

0.0193 = 1.93% probability that there is equipment damage to the payload of at least one of five independently dropped parachutes.

Step-by-step explanation:

For each parachute, there are only two possible outcomes. Either there is damage, or there is not. The probability of there being damage on a parachute is independent of any other parachute, which means that the binomial probability distribution is used to solve this question.

To find the probability of damage on a parachute, the normal distribution is used.

Binomial probability distribution

The binomial probability is the probability of exactly x successes on n repeated trials, and X can only have two outcomes.

[tex]P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}[/tex]

In which [tex]C_{n,x}[/tex] is the number of different combinations of x objects from a set of n elements, given by the following formula.

[tex]C_{n,x} = \frac{n!}{x!(n-x)!}[/tex]

And p is the probability of X happening.

Normal Probability Distribution

Problems of normal distributions can be solved using the z-score formula.

In a set with mean [tex]\mu[/tex] and standard deviation [tex]\sigma[/tex], the z-score of a measure X is given by:

[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}[/tex]

The Z-score measures how many standard deviations the measure is from the mean. After finding the Z-score, we look at the z-score table and find the p-value associated with this z-score. This p-value is the probability that the value of the measure is smaller than X, that is, the percentile of X. Subtracting 1 by the p-value, we get the probability that the value of the measure is greater than X.

Probability of a parachute having damage.

The opening altitude actually has a normal distribution with mean value 185 and standard deviation 32 m, which means that [tex]\mu = 185, \sigma = 32[/tex]

Equipment damage will occur if the parachute opens at an altitude of less than 100 m, which means that the probability of damage is the p-value of  Z when X = 100. So

[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}[/tex]

[tex]Z = \frac{100 - 185}{32}[/tex]

[tex]Z = -2.66[/tex]

[tex]Z = -2.66[/tex] has a p-value of 0.0039.

What is the probability that there is equipment damage to the payload of at least one of five independently dropped parachutes?

0.0039 probability of a parachute having damage, which means that [tex]p = 0.0039[/tex]

5 parachutes, which means that [tex]n = 5[/tex]

This probability is:

[tex]P(X \geq 1) = 1 - P(X = 0)[/tex]

In which

[tex]P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}[/tex]

[tex]P(X = 0) = C_{5,0}.(0.0039)^{0}.(0.9961)^{5} = 0.9807[/tex]

Then

[tex]P(X \geq 1) = 1 - P(X = 0) = 1 - 0.9807 = 0.0193[/tex]

0.0193 = 1.93% probability that there is equipment damage to the payload of at least one of five independently dropped parachutes.

Answer:

  y = 2x +4

Step-by-step explanation:

The slope can be found using the slope formula:

  m = (y2 -y1)/(x2 -x1)

  m = (12 -(-6))/(4 -(-5)) = 18/9 = 2

The y-intercept can be found from ...

  b = y -mx

  b = 12 -(2)(4) = 4

Then the slope-intercept equation for the line is ...

  y = mx +b

  y = 2x +4

Answer:

y=2x+4

Step-by-step explanation:

Hi there!

We want to find the equation of the line that passes through the points (-5, -6) and (4, 12)

The most common way to write the equation of the line is in slope-intercept form, which is y=mx+b, where m is the slope and b is the y intercept

First, let's find the slope of the line

The formula for the slope calculated from two points is [tex]\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}[/tex], where ([tex]x_1[/tex], [tex]y_1[/tex]) and ([tex]x_2[/tex], [tex]y_2[/tex]) are points

We have everything needed to calculate the slope, but let's label the values of the points to avoid any confusion

[tex]x_1[/tex]=-5

[tex]y_1[/tex]=-6

[tex]x_2[/tex]=4

[tex]y_2[/tex]=12

Now substitute into the formula (remember: the formula has SUBTRACTION in it)

m=[tex]\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}[/tex]

m=[tex]\frac{12--6}{4--5}[/tex]

Simplify

m=[tex]\frac{12+6}{4+5}[/tex]

Add

m=[tex]\frac{18}{9}[/tex]

Divide

m=2

So the slope of the line is 2

Here is the equation so far:

y=2x+b

We need to find b

As the line will pass through both (-5, -6) and (4, 12), we can use the values of either one to solve for b

Let's take (4, 12) for instance

Substitute 4 as x and 12 as y

12=2(4)+b

Multiply

12=8+b

Subtract 8 from both sides

4=b

Substitute 4 as b in the equation

y=2x+4

y = 21 + 6x + 2z = 21 + 6×(7 - 2y + z) + 2z =

= 21 + 42 - 12y + 6z + 2z = 63 - 12y + 8z

13y = 63 + 8z

y = (63 + 8z)/13

2x + 2y - 3z = 11

2×(7 - 2y + z) + 2×(63 + 8z)/13 - 3z = 11

2×(7 - 2×(63 + 8z)/13 + z) + 2×(63 + 8z)/13 - 3z = 11

14 - 4×(63 + 8z)/13 + 2z + 2×(63 + 8z)/13 - 3z = 11

-2×(63 + 8z)/13 - z = -3

-2×(63 + 8z) - 13z = -39

-126 - 16z - 13z = -39

-29z = 87

z = -3

y = (63 + 8×-3)/13 = (63 - 24)/13 = 39/13 = 3

x = 7 - 2×3 + -3 = 7 - 6 - 3 = -2

The slope of a line that goes through both [tex](-2,\, 7)[/tex] and [tex](2,\, -5)[/tex] would be [tex](-3)[/tex].

Step-by-step explanation:

The slope of a line is the ratio between rise and run between these two points.

The rise between two points is the change to the corresponding [tex]y[/tex] coordinates. Between [tex](-2,\, 7)[/tex] and [tex](2,\, -5)[/tex], the rise would be [tex](-5) - 7 = (-12)[/tex] (subtract the first [tex]y\![/tex]-coordinate from the second.)

The run between two points is the change to the corresponding [tex]y[/tex] coordinates. Between [tex](-2,\, 7)[/tex] and [tex](2,\, -5)[/tex], the rise would be [tex]2 - (-2) = 4[/tex] (likewise, subtract the first [tex]x[/tex]-coordinate from the second.)

Hence, the slope of this line would be:

Answers

Answer:

  (x, y) = (0, -2)

Step-by-step explanation:

When solving by substitution, you usually want to find an expression for one of the variables in terms of the other. So, the first thing you look for is an equation that has a coefficient of 1 or -1 on one of the variables. Recognizing that the second equation's terms all have a common factor of 3, you basically have two choices.

Substitute for y

Using equation 1, you can write an expression for y:

  y = 5x -2 . . . . . . add 5x to both sides

Then substituting this into the original equation 2, you have ...

  -3x +6(5x -2) = -12

  27x -12 = -12 . . . . . . . simplify

  27x = 0 . . . . . . . . . add 12

  x = 0 . . . . . . . . .  divide by 27

  y = 5(0) -2 = -2 . . . . find y using the expression for substitution

The solution is (x, y) = (0, -2).

__

Substitute for x

If you decide you'd rather substitute for x, you can solve the second equation easily for x.

  -3x +6y = -12

  x -2y = 4 . . . . . . divide by -3

  x = 2y +4 . . . . . . add 2y

Substituting for x in the first equation gives ...

  -5(2y +4) +y = -2 . . . . substitute for x

  -9y -20 = -2 . . . . . . . simplify

  -9y = 18 . . . . . . . . .  add 20

  y = -2 . . . . . . . . . . . divide by -9

  x = 2(-2) +4 = 0 . . . . find x using the expression for substitution

The solution is (x, y) = (0, -2).

_____

Additional comment

In some cases, there are no variables that have a coefficient of ±1, so you just need to "bite the bullet" and deal with the resulting fractions.

Example:

  solve for y: -5x +2y = -2

     2y = 5x -2

     y = 5/2x -1 . . . . expression used to substitute for y

Of course, you can multiply the equation after substitution by 2 to eliminate fractions, or just work the problem as is. The point of looking for coefficients of ±1 is to avoid having to do arithmetic with fractions. It can help avoid errors to work with integers, but ultimately the method is the same regardless of the form of the numbers.

__

You don't always have to substitute for the "bare" variable. Sometimes it can save steps to substitute for expressions instead of variables. If our system of equations were ...

-5x +2y = -2-3x +6y = -12

You can substitute into the second equation for (2y). In that case, the second equation becomes ...

  -3x +3(2y) = -12

  -3x +3(5x-2) = -12 . . . . . . where 2y = 5x -2

If x = 1, y = 7, and z = 15, determine a number that when added to x, y, and z yields
consecutive terms of a geometric sequence. What are the first three terms in the
geometric sequence?

Answers

Answer:

The first three terms in the geometric sequence are 18, 24, 32.

Step-by-step explanation:

A number when added to [tex]x,y,z[/tex] that yields consecutive terms of a geometric sequence is an unknown number [tex]t\in \mathbb{Z}[/tex]

Given

[tex]x = 1, y = 7, z = 15[/tex]

We know

[tex]\alpha _1 = 1+t[/tex]

[tex]\alpha _2 = 7+t[/tex]

[tex]\alpha _3 = 15+t[/tex]

Recall that a geometric sequence is in the form

[tex]\boxed{a_n = a_1 \cdot r^{n-1}}[/tex]

Therefore, once  [tex]\alpha_1, \alpha_2, \alpha_1[/tex] are consecutive terms,

[tex]15+t = (1+t) r^{3-1} \implies 15+t = (1+t) r^2[/tex]

To find the ratio, for

[tex]\dots a_{k-1}, a_k, a_{k+1} \dots[/tex]

we know

[tex]\dfrac{a_k}{a_{k-1}} =\dfrac{a_k}{a_{k-1}} =r[/tex]

Therefore,

[tex]\dfrac{(7+t)}{(1+t)} =\dfrac{(15+t)}{(7+t)} \implies (7+t)^2 = (15+t)(1+t)[/tex]

[tex]\implies 49+14t+t^2=15+16t+t^2 \implies -2t=-34 \implies t=17[/tex]

The ratio is therefore

[tex]r=\dfrac{4}{3}[/tex]

Therefore, the first three terms in the geometric sequence are 18, 24, 32.

It is defined as a function that rapidly increases and the value of the exponential function is always positive. It denotes with exponent y = aˣ

where a is a constant and a>1

It is given that:

A 2-column table has 2 rows. The first column is labeled x with entries negative 2, negative 1, 0, 1, 2. The second column is labeled f (x) with entries 8, 2, 0.5, 0.125, and 0.03125.

x     f(x)

-2     8

-1      2

0      0.5

1       0.125

2       0.03125

Let the function is:

f(x) = a(b)ˣ

Plug x = 0 and f(x) = 0.5

0.5 = a

Plug x = -1 and f(x) = 2

2 = 0.5(1/b)

b = 0.5/2 = 0.25

f(x) = 0.5(0.25)ˣ

Thus, the equation for the exponential function is f(x) = 0.5(0.25)ˣ after applying the concept of the function.

In a certain animal​ species, the probability that a healthy adult female will have no offspring in a given year is 0.24, while the probabilities of​ 1, 2,​ 3, or 4 offspring​ are respectively 0.25, 0.19, 0.17, and 0.15. Find the expected number of offspring. ​

Answers

Answer:

The expected number of offspring is 2

Step-by-step explanation:

The given parameters can be represented as:

[tex]\begin{array}{cccccc}x & {0} & {1} & {2} & {3} & {4} \ \\ P(x) & {0.24} & {0.25} & {0.19} & {0.17} & {0.15} \ \end{array}[/tex]

Required

The expected number of offspring

This implies that we calculate the expected value of the function.

So, we have:

[tex]E(x) = \sum x * P(x)[/tex]

Substitute known values

[tex]E(x) = 0 * 0.24 + 1 * 0.25 + 2 * 0.19+ 3 * 0.17 + 4 * 0.15[/tex]

Using a calculator, we have:

[tex]E(x) = 1.74[/tex]

[tex]E(x) = 2[/tex] --- approximated
