A local arena is negotiating a contract with a tourist ice skating show, icey blades. Icey blades charge a flat fee for $60000 per night plus 40 percent of the gate receipts. The civic arena plans to charge one price of all seats $1.250 per ticket. A) Determine the number of tickets which must be sold each night in order to break even? B) what would nightly profit equal if average attendance in 7500 per night?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

To break even the local arena must sell approximately 70,589 tickets. They would have a loss of $47625.

Step-by-step explanation:

The cost per night of the Icey blades contract can be expressed as a function of the gate receipts, with the flat cost added by 40% of all the gate receipts sold. This expression is shown below:

[tex]cost(x) = 60000 +0.4*x[/tex]

Since each ticket costs $1.25, then the revenue of the arena can be shown as:

[tex]revenue(x) = 1.25*x[/tex]

In order to break even the revenue must be equal to the cost, so:

[tex]revenue(x) = cost(x)\\1.25*x = 60000 + 0.4*x\\1.25*x - 0.4*x = 60000\\0.85*x = 60000\\x = \frac{60000}{0.85} = 70,588.24[/tex]

To break even the local arena must sell approximately 70,589 tickets.

If the average attendance was 7500 per night, the profit would be:

[tex]profit = revenue(7500) - cost(7500)\\profit = 1.25*7500 - 60000 + 0.4*7500\\profit = 9375 - 60000 + 3000\\profit = -47625[/tex]

They would have a loss of $47625

there is 54 g of fruits in a smoothie. If the ratio of strawberry and blueberry in the smoothie is 5:4, how much of each fruit is there in the smoothie?

Answers

Answer:

strawberry: 30 gblueberry: 24 g

Step-by-step explanation:

The total number of ratio units is 5+4 = 9, so each of them represents ...

  (54 g)/9 = 6 g

of fruit. Multiplying the ratio by this value shows you the amount of each kind of fruit:

  strawberry : blueberry = 5 : 4 = 5(6 g) : 4(6 g)

  strawberry : blueberry = 30 g : 24 g

There are 30 g of strawberry and 24 g of blueberry in the smoothie.

No clue how to graph this any help would be greatly appreciated

Answers

Answer:

First, you can graph the y-intercept. The y-intercept would be (0,3) or in your equation, the number 3. Next, you could create a table by substituting values for x such as 1, 2, 3, or 4. This will give you easy numbers to graph. Instead of creating a table, perhaps you want to graph this by plotting the slope. Since the slope is 3/2, is means that it is going up, because the number is positive. An easy way to start would be starting at your y-intercept, (0,3), you could go two to the right and three up. That is a point. Then you could go the way down; two to the left and three down. Finally, you can draw a line connecting the points together.

Answers

Answer:

1) d = 42) b = -3. c = 1 3) a = 3 and d = 1

Step-by-step explanation:

To get the missing values in the table, we will factorize the given expression and compare the factored expression with the expression containing the missing constants.

1) For the expression x²+2x-8, on factorizing we have;

x²+2x-8

= (x²+4x)-(2x-8)

Factoring out the common terms from both parenthesis;

= x(x+4)-2(x+4)

= (1x+4)(1x-2)

=  (1x-2)(1x+4)

Comparing the resulting expression with (ax+b)(cx+d)

a = 1, b = -2, c = 1 and d = 4

2) For the expression 2x³+2x²-24x

Factoring out the common term we will have;

= 2x(x²+x-12)

= 2x(x²-3x+4x-12)

= 2x{x(x-3)+4(x-3)}

= 2x{(x+4)(x-3)}

=  2x(1x-3)(1x+4)

Comparing the resulting expression with 2x(ax+b)(cx+d)

a = 1, b = -3. c = 1 and d = 4

3) For the expression 6x²-15x-9 we will have;

On simplifying,

= 6x²+3x-18x-9

= 3x(2x+1)-9(2x+1)

= (3x-9)(2x+1)

Comparing the resulting expression with (ax+b)(cx+d)

a = 3, b = -9, c = 2 and d = 1

The charitable foundation for a large metropolitan hospital is conducting a study to characterize its donor base. In the past, most donations have come from relatively wealthy individuals; the average annual donor income in the most recent survey was right at $100,000. The foundation believes the average has now increased. A random sample of 200 current donors showed a mean annual income of $103,157 and a standard deviation of $27,498.a. To perform this study, we should form a null hypothesis stating that the average is ______________ 100,000. (Please fill in only one of the following: "less than", "less than or equal to", "equal to", "greater than", "greater than or equal to". Please do not use symbols.)b. At the 10% significant level, the p-value/statistics is _____________________ (Please keep three decimal points) so we should __________________ the null hypothesis (Please only fill in "reject" or "not reject".).c. Hence, we may conclude that the average _________________ increased (Please only fill in "has" or "has not") and the probability that our conclusion is correct is at least _________________ percent.

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

a) We would set up the hypothesis test. This is a test of a single population mean since we are dealing with mean

For the null hypothesis,

H0: µ equal to 100000

For the alternative hypothesis,

H1: µ greater than 100000

This is a right tailed test

Since the population standard deviation is nit given, the distribution is a student's t.

Since n = 200

Degrees of freedom, df = n - 1 = 200 - 1 = 199

t = (x - µ)/(s/√n)

Where

x = sample mean = 103157

µ = population mean = 100000

s = samples standard deviation = 27498

t = (103157 - 100000)/(27498/√200) = 1.62

We would determine the p value using the t test calculator.

p = 0.053

Alpha = 10% = 0.1

Since alpha, 0.1 > than the p value, 0.053, then

b) At the 10% significant level, the p-value/statistics is 0.053, so we should not reject the null hypothesis.

c) Hence, we may conclude that the average has not increased and the probability that our conclusion is correct is at least 90 percent.

A very large batch of components has arrived at a distributor. The batch can be characterized as acceptable only if the proportion of defective components is at most .10.

Let X denote the number of defective components in the sample. What is the distribution of X? Justify your answer.

Required:
What is the probability that the batch will be accepted when the actual proportion of defectives (p) is:_______

a, 0.01
b. 0.05
c. 0.10
d. 0.20
e. 0.25

Answers

Answer:

c. 0.10

Step-by-step explanation:

Hello!

To accept a batch of components, the proportion of defective components is at most 0.10.

X: Number of defective components in a sample of 10.

This variable has a binomial distribution with parameters n=10 and p= 0.10 (for this binomial experiment, the "success" is finding a defective component)

The distributor will accept the batch if at most two components are defective, symbolically:

P(X≤2)

Using the tables for the binomial distribution you can find the accumulated probability for a sample of n=10 with probability of success of p= 0.10 and number of successes x= 2

P(X≤2)= 0.9298

D: (-1,4),(0,4),(1,2),(5,3),(7,1)

Answers

Answer:

Option (C)

Step-by-step explanation:

Option (A):

(-1, -2),(0, 4), (1, 3), (5, 14), (7, 4)

In these ordered pairs (4, 4) and (7, 4) have the same y-value.

This function is not a one-to-one function.

Therefore, this function will have no inverse function.

Option (B):

(-1, 2), (0,4), (1, 5), (5, 4), (7, 2)

(-1, 2) and (7, 2) have the same output values for input values -1 and 7.

This function is not a one-to-one function.

Therefore, this function will have no inverse function.

Option (C).

(-1, 3), (0, 4), (1, 14), (5, 6), (7, 2)

For every input value there is a different output value in these pairs.

So the function is one-to-one function.

Therefore, inverse of this function will be a function.

Option (D).

(-1, 4), (0, 4), (1, 2), (5, 3), (7, 1)

Here (-1, 4) and (0, 4) show the same y-value which shows, the given function is not a one-to-one function.

Therefore, inverse of this function will not be a function.

To dilute a solution that is 40% saline, a chemist combines it with a solution that is 15% saline. How much of each solution should she use if she needs 150 mL of a solution that is 25% saline? Hint: solve by using system of equations

Answers

Answer:

60 ml of 40% saline and 90 ml of 15% saline

Step-by-step explanation:

We can call the amount of 40% solution x and the amount of 15% solution y.

x + y = 150 -- (1)

0.40x + 0.15y = 150 * 0.25 -- (2)  --- 150 * 0.25 = 37.5

40x + 15y = 3750 (Multiply (2) by 100 to get rid of decimals)

15x + 15y = 2250 -- (3) (Multiply (1) by 15)

25x = 1500           (Subtract (3) from (1)

x = 60

y = 150 - 60 = 90

Answer:

[tex] 37.5= 0.4 x +0.15 y[/tex]

We can solve for x and we got:

[tex] x= \frac{37.5-0.15y}{0.4}= 93.75-0.375 y[/tex]

And replacing into the water condition we have:

[tex] 112.5 = (93.75-0.375 y)*0.6 +0.85y[/tex]

Solving for y we got:

[tex] 112.5= 56.25 -0.225 y+0.85 y[/tex]

[tex] y = \frac{112.5-56.25}{0.625}= 90[/tex]

And then solving for x we got:

[tex] x=\frac{37.5- 0.15*90}{0.4}= 60[/tex]

So we need 60 ml for the solution of 40% saline and 90 ml for the 15% saline solution

Step-by-step explanation:

We can solve this problem with the following system of equations:

[tex] 150*0.25 = x*0.4 + y *0.15[/tex] salt

[tex] 150*(1-0.25)= x(1-0.4) +y(1-0.15)[/tex] water

With x the ml of solution for 40% concentration and y the ml of solution at 15% of concentration

From the salt condition we have:

[tex] 37.5= 0.4 x +0.15 y[/tex]

We can solve for x and we got:

[tex] x= \frac{37.5-0.15y}{0.4}= 93.75-0.375 y[/tex]

And replacing into the water condition we have:

[tex] 112.5 = (93.75-0.375 y)*0.6 +0.85y[/tex]

Solving for y we got:

[tex] 112.5= 56.25 -0.225 y+0.85 y[/tex]

[tex] y = \frac{112.5-56.25}{0.625}= 90[/tex]

And then solving for x we got:

[tex] x=\frac{37.5- 0.15*90}{0.4}= 60[/tex]

So we need 60 ml for the solution of 40% saline and 90 ml for the 15% saline solution

Which point is a solution to the inequality shown in this graph?

(3,-1)
(-3,-3)
O A. (5,-5)
O B. (1,5)
C. (-3,-3)
D. (3, -1)

Answers

Hey there!

To find the answer, we just need to see which point falls in this blue, which represents the inequality.

We see that the point (5,-5) is not on the blue.

We see that the point (1,5) is on the blue.

(-3,-3) is on the dotted line but not a solution of the inequality. The dotted line is excluded from the inequality. If it were a bold line, then it would be a solution of the inequality.

(3,-1) is also on the dotted line so it is not a solution.

Therefore, the answer is B. (1,5)

I hope that this helps!

We want to see which point is a solution for the graphed inequality.

We will find that the correct option is B, (1, 5)

Notice that the line that defines the inequality contains the points (-3, -3) and (3, -1)

Then the slope of that line is:

[tex]a = \frac{-1 -(-3)}{3 - (1)} = 1/2[/tex]

Then the line is something like:

y = (1/2)*x + b

To find the value of b, we use the fact that this line passes through the point (3, -1), then we have:

-1 = (1/2)*3 + b

-1 - 3/2 + b

-5/2 = b

So the line is:

y = (1/2)*x - 5/2

And we can see that the line is slashed, and the shaded area is above the line, then we have:

y > (1/2)*x - 5/2

Now that we have the inequality, we can just input the values of the points in the inequality and see if this is true.

First, options C and D can be discarded because these points are on the line, and the points on the line are not solutions.

So we only try with A and B.

A) x = 5

   y = -5

then we have:

-5 > (1/2)*5 - 5/2

-5 > 0

Which clearly is false.

B) x = 1

   y = 5

Then we have:

5 > (1/2)*1 - 5/2 = -4/2

5 > -4/2

This is true, then the point (1, 5) is a solution.

Thus the correct option is B.

Answers

Answer:

Yearly budget= $3840

Monthly budget= $320

Step-by-step explanation:

His budget will be calculated first by rounding off to the nearest$10 all his monthly spending.

For groceries= $176.47

Round off=$ 180.00

For phone =$ 78.66

Round off = $80.00

For gas = $62.37

Round off= $60.00

His total round off = $180+$80+$60

His total round off = $320

Before the round off, his total spending was $176.47+$78.66+$62.37

= $317.5

So his monthly budget should be $320

And yearly budget =$ 320*12

Yearly budget= $3840

0    |     0.50  

1     |     0.20

2    |     0.25

3    |     0.05

Compute E(Y)

Suppose an individual with Y violations incurs a surcharge of $100Y2. Calculate the expected amount of the surcharge.

Answer:

The expected value E(Y) is

[tex]E(Y) = 0.85[/tex]

The expected amount of the surcharge is

[tex]E(100Y^2) = 165[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Let Y be the number of moving violations for which the individual was cited during the last 3 years.

The given probability mass function (pmf) of Y is

y    |    P(Y)    

0    |     0.50  

1     |     0.20

2    |     0.25

3    |     0.05

Compute E(Y)

The expected value E(Y) is given by

[tex]E(Y) = \sum Y \cdot P(Y) \\\\E(Y) = 0 \cdot 0.50 + 1 \cdot 0.20 + 2 \cdot 0.25 + 3 \cdot 0.05 \\\\E(Y) = 0.85[/tex]

Suppose an individual with Y violations incurs a surcharge of $100Y2. Calculate the expected amount of the surcharge.

The expected amount of the surcharge is given by

[tex]E(100Y^2) = 100E(Y^2)[/tex]

Where

[tex]E(Y^2) = \sum Y^2 \cdot P(Y) \\\\E(Y^2) = 0^2 \cdot 0.50 + 1^2 \cdot 0.20 + 2^2 \cdot 0.25 + 3^2 \cdot 0.05\\\\E(Y^2) = 1.65[/tex]

So, the expected amount of the surcharge is

[tex]E(100Y^2) = 100E(Y^2) \\\\E(100Y^2) = 100 \cdot 1.65 \\\\E(100Y^2) = 165[/tex]

2) Find P'(10), and explain what this number represents. What does P'(10) represent?
A. The additional profit, in thousands of dollars, for selling a thousand candles once 10,000 candles have already been sold.
B. The additional profit, in thousands of dollars, when 10,000 candles are sold.
C. The additional cost, in thousands of dollars, to produce a thousand candles once 10,000 candles have already been sold.
D The additional cost, in thousands of dollars, to produce 10,000 candles.
C. How many thousands of candles should be sold to maximize profit?

Answers

1) The marginal profit is [tex]4.3 - 0.7 ln(x)[/tex].

2) The additional profit, in thousands of dollars, for selling a thousand candles once 10,000 candles have already been sold.

Thus, option (A) is correct.

C) To maximize profit 462,481 thousands of candles should be sold.

Given: [tex]P(x) = 5 x - 0.7 x[/tex] [tex]{\text}ln x.[/tex]

1) Take the derivative of the profit function P(x) with respect to x.

P(x) = 5x - 0.7x ln(x)

To find P'(x), differentiate each term separately using the power rule and the derivative of ln(x):

[tex]P'(x) = 5 - 0.7(1 + ln(x))[/tex]

       = [tex]5 - 0.7 - 0.7 ln(x)[/tex]

       = [tex]4.3 - 0.7 ln(x)[/tex]

2) Substitute x = 10 into the derivative:

P'(10) = 4.3 - 0.7 ln(10)

         = 4.3 - 0.7(2.30259)

         = 4.3 - 1.61181

         = 2.68819

Therefore, the additional profit for selling a thousand candles once 10,000 candles have already been sold.

Thus, option (A) is correct.

C) Set P'(x) = 0 and solve for x:

[tex]4.3 - 0.7 ln(x) = 0[/tex]

[tex]0.7 ln(x) = 4.3[/tex]

[tex]{\text} ln(x) = 4.3 / 0.7[/tex]

[tex]{\text} ln(x) = 6.14286[/tex]

[tex]x = e^{6.14286[/tex]

[tex]x = 462.481[/tex]

Therefore, 462,481 thousands of candles should be sold.

1) The marginal profit, P'(x), is -0.7ln(x) + 4.3.

2) The number of thousands of candles that should be sold to maximize profit is approximately 466.9.

1) To find the marginal profit, P'(x), we need to take the derivative of the profit function, P(x), with respect to x. Using the power rule and the chain rule, we can differentiate the function:

P(x) = 5x - 0.7x ln(x)

Taking the derivative with respect to x:

P'(x) = 5 - 0.7(ln(x) + 1)

Simplifying:

P'(x) = 5 - 0.7ln(x) - 0.7

P'(x) = -0.7ln(x) + 4.3

2) To find P'(10), we substitute x = 10 into the marginal profit function:

P'(10) = -0.7ln(10) + 4.3

Using a calculator, we can evaluate this expression:

P'(10) ≈ -0.7(2.3026) + 4.3 ≈ -1.6118 + 4.3 ≈ 2.6882

The value of P'(10) is approximately 2.6882.

Now, let's interpret what P'(10) represents:

The correct interpretation is A. The additional profit, in thousands of dollars, for selling a thousand candles once 10,000 candles have already been sold.

P'(10) represents the rate at which the profit is changing with respect to the number of candles sold when 10,000 candles have already been sold. In other words, it measures the additional profit (in thousands of dollars) for each additional thousand candles sold once 10,000 candles have already been sold.

Lastly, to determine the number of thousands of candles that should be sold to maximize profit, we need to find the critical points of the profit function P(x). This can be done by setting the derivative P'(x) equal to zero and solving for x.

-0.7ln(x) + 4.3 = 0

-0.7ln(x) = -4.3

ln(x) = 4.3 / 0.7

Using properties of logarithms:

x = e^(4.3 / 0.7)

Using a calculator, we can evaluate this expression:

x ≈ e^(6.1429) ≈ 466.9

For the rational function f(x)=x-2/3x^2+x-2, solve f(x)=2

Answers

Answer:

When f(x) = 2, x = 1/2, -2/3

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: Set equation equal to 2

[tex]2 = \frac{x-2}{3x^2 +x -2}[/tex]

Step 2: Multiply both sides by denominator

2(3x² + x - 2) = x - 2

Step 3: Distribute

6x² + 2x - 4 = x - 2

Step 4: Isolate everything to one side

6x² + x - 2 = 0

Step 5: Factor

(2x - 1)(3x + 2) = 0

Step 6: Find roots

x = 1/2, -2/3

The product of two whole numbers is 1000. If neither of the numbers is a multiple of 10, what is their sum?

Answers

Answer:

133

Step-by-step explanation:

1000 = 2 * 2 * 2 * 5 * 5 * 5

To not have a multiple of 10, you cannot have 2 and 5 as factors of the same number.

One number is 2^3 = 8.

The other number is 5^3 = 125.

8 * 125 = 1000, so the two do multiply to 1000.

Neither 8 nor 125 is a multiple of 10.

8 + 125 = 133

Answer:

133

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that the product of two numbers is 1000. Let's first list out the factors of 1000 (factors are numbers that evenly divide into 1000):

1, 2, 4, 5, 8, 10, 20, 25, 40, 50, 100, 125, 200, 250, 500, 1000

We see that the pairs are:

(1, 1000)

(2, 500)

(4, 250)

(5, 200)

(8, 125)

(10, 100)

(20, 50)

(25, 40)

An easy way to see if a number is divisible by 1000 is to check is it has a zero at the end. Notice that all of the pairs have at least one number that ends with at least 1 zero except (8, 125), so this is the pair of numbers we're looking for.

The sum is thus 8 + 125 = 133.
