Blue Star is starting a new distribution service that delivers auto parts to the service departments of auto dealerships in the local area. Blue Star has found two light-duty trucks that would do the job well, so now it needs to pick one to perform this new service. The Ford TriVan costs $28,000 to buy and uses regular unleaded gasoline, with an average fuel efficiency of 24 miles per gallon. The TriVan has an operating cost of $.20 per mile. The Honda CityVan, a hybrid truck, costs $32,000 to buy and uses regular unleaded gasoline and battery power; it gets an average of 37 miles per gallon. The CityVan has an operating cost of $.22 per mile. The distance traveled annually is estimated to be 22,000 miles, with the life of either truck expected to be 8 years. The average gas price is $4.25 per gallon.

Required:
a. Based on life cycle cost, which model truck is the best choice?
b. How many miles does Blue Star need to put on a truck for the costs to be equal?
c. What is the crossover point in years?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Blue Star

a.                                   The Ford TriVan   The Honda CityVan

Total life-cycle costs          $94,368                $90,936

Based on life cycle cost, the Honda CityVan is the best choice.

b. Blue Star needs to put on the Ford TriVan 9,032 miles more for the cost to be equal with the Honda CityVan's.

c. The crossover point in years = 5 months

Step-by-step explanation:

a) Data and Calculations:

                                        The Ford TriVan   The Honda CityVan

Purchase costs                  $28,000                 $32,000

Fuel efficiency per gallon   24 miles                 37 miles

Operating cost per mile     $0.20                     $0.22

Total operating costs         $4,400                   $4,840

Estimated annual distance 22,000 miles        22,000 miles

Gallons of fuel consumed  916.7 (22,000/24) 594.6 (22,000/37)

Total cost of fuel                 $3,896                  $2,527

Fuel cost per mile              $0.18                      $0.115

Total cost per mile             $0.38                     $0.335

Expected life of truck         8 years                   8 years

Average gas price = $4.25 per gallon

Total costs:

                                        The Ford TriVan   The Honda CityVan

Annual costs:

Total operating costs         $4,400                   $4,840

Total cost of fuel                $3,896                   $2,527

Annual costs                      $8,296                   $7,367

Life cycle costs:

Annual costs for 8 years   $66,368                $58,936

Purchase costs                  $28,000                $32,000

Total life-cycle costs          $94,368                $90,936

Difference in costs between Ford TriVan and Honda CityVan = $3,432 ($94,368 - $90,936)

Miles to put on the Ford TriVan for the life cycle cost to be equal to the life cycle cost of the Honda CityVan

= Difference in costs divided by total cost per mile of the Ford TriVan

= 9,032 miles ($3,432/$0.38)

Annual distance = 22,000 miles

Monthly distance = 1,833 miles

9,032/1,833 = 4.93 months or 5 months approximately

-6(2p + 1) = -7p - 31

Answers

Answer:

P=5

Step-by-step explanation:

-6(2p + 1) = -7p - 31

Expand -6(2p+1)

Apply distributive law;

a=-6, b=2p, c=1

=-6*2p+(-6)*1

=-6*2p-6*1

Simplify; -6*2p-6*1

=-12p-6

-12p-6=-7p-31

Add 6 to both sides;

-12p-6+6=-7p-31+6

simplify;

-12p=-7p-25

Add 7p to both sides;

-12p+7p=-7p-25+7p

Simplify;

-5p=-25

Divide both sides by -5

-5p/-5=-25/-5

Simplify:

p=5

Answered by the One and Only #DrippQueenMo

Answer:

p=5

Step-by-step explanation:

first you want to get rid of the parentheses in -6(2p+1) so take -6 and times it by 2p and 1 to get -12p-6. You can do this because of the distributive property. Now you have the equation -12p - 6 = -7p - 31. So now you want to get the p values on one side. Adding 7p to both sides of the equations get rid of the -7p. -12p + 7p equals -5p so now you have the equation -5p - 6 = -31. so now you need to get the whole numbers on one side. So add 6 to both sides so you can get rid of the -6. this leaves you with the equation -5p= -25. Now to find the value of p you divide both sides by -5. This gives you p = 5.

How many favorable outcomes will there be for spinning blue at least once?
(I NEED HELP PLEASE)

Answers

Answer:

It depends on the spinner and how many of each color spaces are on it.

Step-by-step explanation:

A favorable outcome means an outcome that matches your criteria.

Example: You spin a spinner with 10 spaces. 3 blue, 2 red, 3 green, 2 yellow.

If you spin the spinner once, there are 3 favorable outcomes (remember a favorable outcome means landing on blue in this case).

Spinning the spinner twice would lead to at least 100 outcomes, 9 of which are favorable.

a. Highest 10 percent
b. Middle 50 percent
c. Highest 80 percent
d. Lowest 10 percent

Answers

Answer:

a. Above 337.8 grams.

b. Between 318.25 grams and 331.75 grams.

c. Above 316.59 grams.

d. Below 312.2 grams

Step-by-step explanation:

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.

Mean of 325 grams and a standard deviation of 10 grams.

This means that [tex]\mu = 325, \sigma = 10[/tex]

a. Highest 10 percent

This is X when Z has a pvalue of 1 - 0.1 = 0.9, so X when Z = 1.28.

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

[tex]1.28 = \frac{X - 325}{10}[/tex]

[tex]X - 325 = 10*1.28[/tex]

[tex]X = 337.8[/tex]

So 337.8 grams.

b. Middle 50 percent

Between the 50 - (50/2) = 25th percentile and the 50 + (50/2) = 75th percentile.

25th percentile:

X when Z has a pvalue of 0.25, so X when Z = -0.675.

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

[tex]-0.675 = \frac{X - 325}{10}[/tex]

[tex]X - 325 = -0.675*10[/tex]

[tex]X = 318.25[/tex]

75th percentile:

X when Z has a pvalue of 0.75, so X when Z = 0.675.

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

[tex]0.675 = \frac{X - 325}{10}[/tex]

[tex]X - 325 = 0.675*10[/tex]

[tex]X = 331.75[/tex]

Between 318.25 grams and 331.75 grams.

c. Highest 80 percent

Above the 100 - 80 = 20th percentile, which is X when Z has a pvalue of 0.2. So X when Z = -0.841.

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

[tex]-0.841 = \frac{X - 325}{10}[/tex]

[tex]X - 325 = -0.841*10[/tex]

[tex]X = 316.59[/tex]

Above 316.59 grams.

d. Lowest 10 percent

Below the 10th percentile, which is X when Z has a pvalue of 0.1, so X when Z = -1.28.

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

[tex]-1.28 = \frac{X - 325}{10}[/tex]

[tex]X - 325 = -1.28*10[/tex]

[tex]X = 312.2[/tex]

Below 312.2 grams

A sports marketing company is interested in how many hours teenagers in a town spend watching sports. They randomly select 40 teenagers in this town and ask how many hours per week they spend watching sports. The mean amount is 6.25 hours with a standard deviation of 4.33 hours. Which of the following is the 90% confidence interval for the true mean amount of time teenagers from this town watch sports?

Find the t-table here.

(4.396, 8.104)
(4.865, 7.635)
(5.097, 7.404)
(5.245, 7.256)

Answers

Answer:

(5.097, 7.404)

Step-by-step explanation:

We have the standard deviation for the sample, which means that the t-distribution is used to solve this question.

The first step to solve this problem is finding how many degrees of freedom, we have. This is the sample size subtracted by 1. So

df = 40 - 1 = 39

90% confidence interval

Now, we have to find a value of T, which is found looking at the t table, with 39 degrees of freedom(y-axis) and a confidence level of [tex]1 - \frac{1 - 0.9}{2} = 0.95[/tex]. So we have T = 1.6849

The margin of error is:

[tex]M = T\frac{s}{\sqrt{n}} = 1.6849\frac{4.33}{\sqrt{40}} = 1.154[/tex]

In which s is the standard deviation of the sample and n is the size of the sample.

The lower end of the interval is the sample mean subtracted by M. So it is 6.25 - 1.154 = 5.096 hours

The upper end of the interval is the sample mean added to M. So it is 6.25 + 1.154 = 7.404 hours.

The answer is  (5.097, 7.404)

345 calories

Step-by-step explanation:

The easiest way to do this is to find out how many calories there are for 1 ounce. So 230 divided by 4, equals 57.5. So if 57.5 calories are in one ounce, then you just multiply by 6 to get your answer.

57.5 x 6 = 345 calories


One number is 4 less than a second number. Twice the second number is 13 less than 5 times the first. Find the two numbers.

Answers

Answer:

7 , 11

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the second number be 'x'

the first number = x - 4

Twice the second number : 2*x = 2x

5times first = 5*(x -4) = 5*x - 5*4 = 5x - 20

13 less than 5 times the first = 5x - 20 - 13 = 5x - 33

5x - 33 = 2x

Add 33 to both sides

5x - 33 + 33 = 2x +33

5x = 2x + 33

Subtract '2x'from both sides

5x - 2x = 2x - 2x + 33

3x = 33

Divide both sides by 3

[tex]\frac{3x}{3}=\frac{33}{3}[/tex]

x = 11

First number = x - 4 = 11 - 4 = 7

The numbers are 7 , 11

Suppose a caravan (5 cars) travels 100 km, beginning in front of one tollbooth, passing through a second tollbooth, and nishing just after a third tollbooth. The distance between two tollbooths is 50 km. Each car takes 12 sec to serve. The tollbooth starts to serve the caravan when the entire caravan is lined up. The caravan can only dispatch a tollbooth after all cars in the caravan are served. What is the end-to-end delay (from when the caravan is lined up before 1st tollbooth till the caravan is served by the 3rd tollbooth)

Answers

Answer:

1 hr 2 min 30 secs

Step-by-step explanation:

Assume Propagation speed = 100 km/hr

number of cars = 5

distance between booths = 50 km

Total distance = 100 km

take taken to serve each car = 12 secs

Determine the end to end delay

first calculate the propagation delay = Total distance / propagation speed

                                                             = 100 / 100 = 1  hr

next calculate : Time taken to serve 5 cars in each Tollbooth

= 5 * 12 secs = 60 secs

Next calculate : transmission delay ( time taken by three tollbooth to reach 5 cars )

= 60 secs * 3 = 180 secs = 2 min 30 secs

therefore end-end delay

= propagation delay + transmission delay

= 1 hr 2 min 30 secs

Find the coordinates of point P witch cuts line segment AB into two parts with a ratio of 3:8

point a : (-15,18) POint B (7,7)

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

So we'll take the ratio of  3:8  to mean  3 to 8   ,  which is 11 total parts.

since we know that part, and we can see that the x coordinate goes from -15 to 7, which is a total  of 22  and that y goes from 18 to 7, which is a total of 11 then we know that  we can just break up each into their 3:8 ratios

3:8=11 for the y component

6:16=22 for the x component

so subtract 3 from the B point for the y or add 3 to the A point , either works here,   Let's go from B so y = 10 (7+3)  and x = 1  (7-6)

So a point at (1,10) will be on the line and at a ratio of 3:8  :)
