Nicole bought six pounds of apples at $1.50 per pound. The store had a discount of $2 off her total purchase. Nicole and her friend then divided the cost of the purchase evenly. Which expression can be used to determine how much Nicole and her friend each paid for the apples?
A)[(6 × 1.50) – 2] ÷ 2
B) 6 × 1.50 – 2 ÷ 2
C) 6 × [1.50 – (2 ÷ 2)]
D) 6 × 1.50 – (2 ÷ 2)

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Answer: (A)  [(6 x 1.5) - 2] ÷ 2

Step-by-step explanation:

Find the cost of 6 pounds of apples:

1 pound = $1.50

6 pounds = 6 x 1.5

Price after discount:

Discount = $2

Price after discount = (6 x 1.5) - 2

The cost is shared with her friend:

One person = [(6 x 1.5) - 2] ÷ 2

Answer: (A)  [(6 x 1.5) - 2] ÷ 2

A project consists of three tasks: A, B, and C. Task A is known to take five days for sure. Tasks B and C are each dependent on A. B takes five days. C takes seven days with a probability of 0.5 and three days with a probability of 0.5. What is the expected completion time of the project

Answers

Answer:

The expected completion time of the project is:

10 days.

Step-by-step explanation:

Duration of Task A = 5 days

Task B and C depend on Task A

This implies that Task A must be completed before Task B and C can be started.

To complete Task B will take 5 days

To complete Task C will take 5 days (7 * 0.5) + (3 * 0.5)

Since Task A takes 5 days and Tasks B and C depend on Task A and Task B takes 5 days and Task C takes expected time of 5 days, it means that the project can be completed in 10 days (5 + 5) if tasks B and C are simultaneously carried out.

The expected completion time of the project is

(i)10 days if B&C are mutually independent

(ii)15 days if B &C are mutually dependent

What is the expected completion time of a task?

Expected completion time of a task= p1x1 + p2x2

Where

p1 & p2 are probabilities.

x1 and x2 are samples.

p1=p2=0.5

x1=7

x2=3

Expected completion time of task C= 0.5*7+0.5*3 = 5 days

Task B and C will be due till task A is not accomplished.

Total time to accomplish task A = 5 days

Total time  to accomplish task B= 5 days

Expected time to accomplish task C = 5 days

If tasks B and C are mutually independent

expected time to complete the project = 5+5=10days

If task C depends on task B

Expected time to complete the project = 5+5+5 = 15 days.

Therefore

The expected completion time of the project is

(i)10 days if B&C are mutually independent

(ii)15 days if B and C are mutually dependent

Which function is graphed?

Answers

Answer:

Option A

Step-by-step explanation:

The given piecewise function shows that there is a jump discontinuity at x=1 in the first part of the piecewise function. Hence, this means that for the first part of the piecewise function, x=1 isn't included, but in the second part of the piecewise function, it is.

We can therefore eliminate C and D.

Looking at the first part of the piecewise function, we can see as x grows smaller, y grows larger.  Therefore, A is the more preferred answer because the domain x<1 is valid.

So, the Answer  is A

Answer:

12.5%

Step-by-step explanation:

The question is asking for the percent increase of 80%. So how much of 80% was the new percentage (90%) increased by.

First, find the difference 90-80=10

Then find the percent of 80 that the difference is.

10/80=0.125

0.125 in a percent form is 12.5%

So, there was a 12.5% increase.

Find all solutions to the equation $x^2 - 8x = -16$.

Answers

Answer:

x = 4

Step-by-step explanation:

x^2 - 8x = -16

Add 16 to both sides.

x^2  8x + 16 = 0

This may be the square of a binomial.

x^2 is the square of x

16 is the square of 4 and -4.

Let's check the middle term:

2ab = 2(x)(-4) = -8x

Yes, it is the square of a binomial.

x^2 - 8x + 16 = 0

(x - 4)^2 = 0

x - 4 = 0 or x - 4 = 0

x = 4 or x = 4

X is normally distributed random variable with mean 63 and standard deviation 6, the probability that X lies between 45 and 81 is

Answers

Answer:

P(45<X<81) = P(-3<z<3)=0.9974 or 99.74%

Step-by-step explanation:

Mean = 63

Standard Deviation =6

We need to find probability that X lies between 45 and 81 i.e P(45<X<81)

First we will find z-score for X=45 and X=81

For X=45 the z-score can be found using formula:  [tex]z-score=\frac{X-\mu}{\sigma}[/tex]

Putting values and finding z-score

[tex]z-score=\frac{X-\mu}{\sigma}\\z-score=\frac{45-63}{6}\\z-score=-3[/tex]

For X=45, z-score is -3

For X=81 the z-score can be found using formula:  [tex]z-score=\frac{X-\mu}{\sigma}[/tex]

Putting values and finding z-score

[tex]z-score=\frac{X-\mu}{\sigma}\\z-score=\frac{81-63}{6}\\z-score=3[/tex]

For X=81, z-score is 3

Now finding the probability of P(-3<z<3)

It can be solved as:

P(-3<z<3)=P(z<3)-P(z<-3)

Looking at the z-score table to find

P(z<3)= 0.9987

P(z<-3)=0.0013

So, P(-3<z<3)=P(z<3)-P(z<-3)

P(-3<z<3)=0.9987 - 0.0013

P(-3<z<3)=0.9974

or P(-3<z<3)= 99.74%

So, P(45<X<81) = P(-3<z<3)=0.9974 or 99.74%

The health center of a small, private university requires students to have appointments for visits. Each appointment takes an average of minutes with a standard deviation of minutes. The health center makes appointments each day and is scheduled to be open for hours. What is the probability that the total time spent for students who have appointments for tomorrow will exceed hours? (Hint: hours minutes.) Carry your intermediate computations to at least four decimal places. Report your result to at least three decimal places.

Answers

Some data in the question are missing. The complete question is :

The health center of a small, private university requires students to have appointments for visits. Each appointment takes an average of 5.6 minutes with a standard deviation of 3.5 minutes. The health center makes 100 appointments each day and is scheduled to be open for 10 hours. What is the probability that the total time spent for 100 students who have appointments for tomorrow will exceed 10 hours? (Hint: 10 hours=600 minutes.) Carry your intermediate computations to at least four decimal places. Report your result to at least three decimal places.

Solution :

Let the time spent by [tex]$i^{th} $[/tex] students for the appointment be = [tex]$X_i$[/tex]

∴ E([tex]$X_i$[/tex]) = 5.6

   V([tex]$X_i$[/tex]) = [tex]$3.5^2$[/tex]

n = 100

The required probability

[tex]$P\left( \sum_{i=1} ^{100} X_i \leq 600 \right)$[/tex]

Now, [tex]$E\left( \sum_{i=1} ^{100} X_i \right) = 100 \times E (X_i) $[/tex]

                            = 100 x 5.6

                            = 560

[tex]$V\left( \sum_{i=1} ^{100} X_i \right) = (100)^2 \times (3.5)^2 $[/tex]

Standard deviation = 3.5 x 100

                                = 35

[tex]$P\left( \sum_{i=1} ^{100} X_i \leq 600 \right)$[/tex]

[tex]$\Rightarrow P\left( \frac{\sum_{i=1}^{100} X_i -560} {35} \leq \frac{600-560}{35}\right)$[/tex]

[tex]$= \phi (1.14286)$[/tex]

= 0.8735

= 0.874  (round to 3 decimal places)
