Answer:

$8.8 per hour

Step-by-step explanation:

Well, the equation is simple.

Time (hours) * Money (per hour) = Total

We know the time he worked for and the total amount he earned, so just replace in this equation and find the unknown number

12.5 * money = 110

To find the money he earns per hour we should just simply divide the total amount he earned by the hours he spent working

money = 110/12.5

money = 8.8$

You can also check it out to make sure it's correct.

If he earns 8.8$ per hour and worked for 12.5 hours how much he'll earn? Let's find out

8.8 * 12.5 =?

8.8 * 12.5 = 110, the same total amount so our solution must be correct.

Use the function f(x) to answer the questions.

fiasKO [112]

Answer:

Below in bold.

Step-by-step explanation:

A. −16x2 + 24x + 16 = 0

-8(2x2 - 3x - 2) = 0

-8(2x + 1 )(x - 2) = 0

x = -0.5, 2.

So the x-intercepts are (-0/5, 0) and (2, 0).

B. As the leading coefficients is negative (-16) the vertex of the graph will be a Maximum.

To find its coordinates we convert the function to vertex form:

f(x) = −16x2 + 24x + 16

= -16(x^2 - 1.5x) + 16

Completing the square on contents of the parentheses:

= -16 [(x - 0.75)^2 - 0.75^2] + 16

= -16(x - 0.75)^2 - 16 * -0.75^2 + 16

= -16(x - 0.75)^2 + 9 + 16

= -16(x - 0.75)^2 + 25.

So the coordinates of the vertex are (0.75, 25)

Ship collisions in the Houston Ship Channel are rare. Suppose the number of collisions are Poisson distributed, with a mean of 1

alexandr1967 [171]

Answer:

$a) \simeq 0.3012$ $b) \simeq 0.0494$ c) $\simeq 0.2438$

Step-by-step explanation:

Rate of collision,

1.2 collisions every 4 months

or, $\frac{1.2}{4}$

= 0.3 collisions per month

So, the Poisson distribution for the random variable no. of collisions per month (X) is given by,

P(X =x) = $\frac{e^{-\lambda}\times {\lambda}^{x}}}{x!}
$

for x ∈ N ∪ {0}

= 0 otherwise --------------------------------------(1)

here, $\lambda = 0.3$ collision / month

No collision over a 4 month period means no collision per month or X =0

Putting X = 0 in (1) we get,

P(X = 0) = $\frac{e^{-0.3}\times {\0.3}^{0}}{0!}
$

$\simeq 0.7408182207$ ------------------------------------(2)

Now, since we are calculating this for 4 months,

so, P(No collision in 4 month period)

= $0.7408182207^{4}$

$\simeq 0.3012$ -----------------------------------------------------------(3)

2 collision in 2 month period means 1 collision per month or X =1

Putting X =1 in (1) we get,

P(X =1) = $\frac{e^{-0.3}\times {\0.3}^{1}}{1!}
$

$\simeq 0.2222454662$ ------------------------------------(4)

Now, since we are calculating this for 2 months, so ,

P(2 collisions in 2 month period)

= $0.2222454662^{2}$

$\simeq 0.0494$ -----------------------------------------(5)

1 collision in 6 months period means

$\frac{1}{6}$ collision per month

Now, P(1 collision in 6 months period)

= P( X = 1/6] (which is to be estimated)

= $\frac {P(X=0)\times 5 + P(X =1)\times 1}{6}$

= \frac {0.7408182207 \times 5 + 0.2222454662 \times 1}{6}[/tex]

$\simeq 0.6543894283$ -------------------------------------------(6)

So,

P(1 collision in 6 month period)

= $0.6543894283^{6}$

$\simeq 0.0785267444$ ------------------------------------------------(7)

So,

P(No collision in 6 months period)

= $(P(X =0)^{6}$

$\simeq 0.1652988882$ ---------------------------------(8)

so,

P(1 or fewer collision in 6 months period)

= (8) + (7 ) = 0.0785267444 +0.1652988882

$\simeq 0.2438$ ---------------------------------------------(9)
