Let p(t) be the number attendees and t be the ticket price measured in units of 10s of rupees. When the price is t = 7 (i.e. Rs70), there were p(7) = 300 people in attendance.

For each unit increase in t (i.e. for each Rs10 increase in price), p(t) is expected to fall by 20, so that

p(t + 1) = p(t) - 20

Solve for p(t). Suppose t ≥ 7. By substitution,

p(t + 1) = (p(t - 1) - 20) - 20 = p(t - 1) - 2×20

p(t + 1) = (p(t - 2) - 20) - 2×20 = p(t - 2) - 3×20

p(t + 1) = (p(t - 3) - 20) - 3×20 = p(t - 3) - 4×20

and so on, down to

p(t + 1) = p(7) - (t - 6)×20 = 420 - 20t

or

p(t) = 420 - 20 (t - 1) = 440 - 20t

With t = price per ticket (Rs/ticket) and p(t) = number of attendees = number of tickets sold, it follows that the income made from ticket sales for some fixed ticket price t would be t×p(t). If one plots p(t) in the coordinate plane, the price that maximizes income and number of attendees is such that the area of a rectangle inscribed by the line p(t) and the coordinate axes is maximized.

Let A(t) be the area of this rectangle, so

A(t) = t p(t) = 440t - 20t²

Without using calculus, complete the square:

A(t) = 440t - 20t² = 2420 - 20 (t - 11)²

This is the equation of a parabola with vertex at (11, 2420), so the optiml ticket price is Rs11, and at this price the drama club can expect an income of Rs2420.

With calculus, differentiate A with respect to t and find the critical points:

A'(t) = 440 - 40t = 0   ⇒   11 - t = 0   ⇒   t = 11

Differentiate A again and check the sign of the second derivative at this critical point:

A''(t) = -40   ⇒   A''(11) = -40 < 0

which indicates a local maximum at t = 11 of A(11) = 2420.

Every day, Luann walks to the bus stop and the amount of time she will have to wait for the bus is between 0 and 12 minutes, wit
Nana76 [90]

Answer:

a. 341.902.

Step-by-step explanation:

Normal Probability Distribution:

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

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

Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}

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.

n instances of a normal variable:

For n instances of a normal variable, the mean is n\mu and the standard deviation is s = \sigma\sqrt{n}

60 days, for each day, mean 6, variance of 12.

So

\mu = 60*6 = 360

s = \sqrt{12}\sqrt{60} = 26.8328

What is the 25th percentile of her total wait time over the course of 60 days?

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

Z = \frac{X - \mu}{s}

-0.675 = \frac{X - 360}{26.8328}

X - 360 = -0.675*26.8328

X = 341.902

Thus, the correct answer is given by option A.

Which is the equation of a hyperbola centered at the origin with vertex (0, sqrt 12 ) that passes through (2 sqrt 3,6)
mina [271]

Answer:

y-intercept = a +y^2/12 term in it.

Then for y=6, you have

.. 6^2/12 -x^2/b = 1

.. 2 = x^2/b

.. b = x^2/2

If your point is (2√3, 6), then this is

.. b = (2√3)^2/2 = 12/2 = 6

Then the hyperbola's equation is

.. y^2/12 -x^2/6 = 1 . . . . . . . . selection D
