A package delivery company experiences high variability in daily customer demand, which in turn results in high variability in the daily workload at the central sorting facility. The company relies on its sorting facility employees working overtime to provide on-time delivery when the workload demand is very high. A sorting facility employee receives a salary of $12/hour for a 40 hour week, and the employee receives $18/hour for every hour worked overtime, that is, for every hour worked over 40 hours in a given week. The number of overtime hours that an employee works in any given week is a random variable, with a mean of 15 hours and a standard deviation of 4 hours.

Required:
What are the mean, the standard deviation, and the variance of an employee's total weekly salary?

Answers

Answer 1

Solution :

Let :

X = number of overtime hours

S = total weekly salary

S = [tex]$12 \times 40 + 18 \times X$[/tex]

S = 480 + 18X

E(S) = [tex]$480 + 18 \times E(X)$[/tex]

[tex]$E(S) = 480 + 18 \times 15$[/tex]

        = 750

Mean of S = 750

Var (S) = [tex]$18^2 \times Var(X)$[/tex]

Var(S) = [tex]$18^2 \times 4^2$[/tex]

          = 5184

Variance of S = 5184

The standard deviation equals square root of 5184 = 72

4. Jean and Mark are going to fill a pool with 2 different sized hoses. Jean can fill the pool in 4 hours, while Mark can complete it in 6 hours. Their supervisor thinks that the job will take 5 hours to
complete if they work together. Explain each step in solving this equation, and determine if the supervisor is correct or not.

Answers

Answer:

2.4 hours.

Step-by-step explanation:

Remark

The supervisor is not quite correct. The correct answer must be lower than the lowest number, otherwise you are taking out what the person with the narrower hose must be taking out what the other person is putting in.

Equation

Let x = the amount of time needed for him to fill the pool

Let y = the amount of time needed for the second person to fill the pool

Let z = the amount of time needed for both to fill the pool.

1/x + 1/ y = 1/z

1/4 + 1/6 = 1/z         The common denominator is 12

3/12 + 2/12 = 1/z

5/12 = 1/z                Cross multiply

5z = 12 * 1               Divide by 5

z = 12/5

z = 2 2/5

z = 2.4 hours

h = 1296 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that,

The vertical position of the object is :

[tex]h(t)=-16t^2+160t+896[/tex] .....(1)

We need to find the highest height reached by the object. For highest height,

Put dh/dt = 0

[tex]\dfrac{d}{dt}(-16t^2+160t+896)=0\\\\-32t+160\\\\t=\dfrac{160}{32}\\\\t=5\ s[/tex]

Put t = 5 in equation (1).

[tex]h(5)=-16(5)^2+160(5)+896\\\\=1296\ ft[/tex]

So, the height reached by the object is 1296 feet.

Answers

Answer:

QRST becomes Q prime, R prime, S prime, T prime.

Step-by-step explanation:

Any figure that is rotated, translated or reflected on the corrdinate plane is considered a prime (as long as it is congruent (the same as, or equal to) with the original). The apostrophe stands for prime.

Ex. If you reflect triangle ABC across one of the axes, the original triangle will continue being ABC, while the reflection would be A' B' C' (or A prime, B prime, C prime). I hope this helps :)

If the circumference of a circle measures 3/2TT cm, what is the area of the circle in terms of TT?
A. 3/4 tt cm2
B. 9/2 tt cm2
C. 9/4 tt cm2
D. 9/16 tt cm2

Answers

Answer:

A = pi 9/16  cm^2

Step-by-step explanation:

The circumference is 3/2 pi

The circumference is given by

C = 2 * pi *r

3/2 pi = 2 * pi *r

Divide each side by 2 *pi

3/2 pi / 2 pi  = 2 pi r /2pi

3/4 cm = r

Now we can find the area

A = pi r^2

A = pi ( 3/4) ^2

A = pi 9/16  cm^2

Answer:

d) 9/16π cm²

Step-by-step explanation:

Circumference = 3/2π cm

diameter = 3/2 cm

radius = 3/2 ÷ 2 = 3/4 cm

area = π(3/4)² = 9/16 π cm²

A frustum of height 4 is part of a larger pyramid of height 6. What is the ratio of the volume of the frustum to the volume of the pyramid?

Answers

Answer:

26 : 27

Step-by-step explanation:

The volume of the pyramid with height of 6:

V = 1/3bh = 1/3b*6 = 2b,b is area of the base

The volume of the smaller pyramid is:

V₁ = 1/3*b₁h₁

We know:

h₁ = 6 - 4 = 2h₁/h = 2/6 = 1/3

The base sides have same ratio as similar triangles.

b₁ = (1/3)²b= b/9

The volume of smaller pyramid:

V₁ = 1/3*2*b/9 = 2b/27

The difference of the volumes is the volume of the frustum:

V₂ = V - V₁V₂ = 2b - 2b/27 = 52b/27

The ratio of V₂ to V is:

52b/27 ÷ 2b = 26/27

Step-by-step explanation:

Answers

g(x) = √(32x) = √(2⁵x) = 4√(2x)

(f∘g)(x) = f(g(x))

= √(2 ⋅ 4√(2x))
