The general manager, marketing director, and 3 other employees of Company A are hosting a visit by the vice president and 2 othe
yawa3891 [41]

Solution :

Let the three places be 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8

a). Number of the cases when a general manager is the next to a vice president is equal to 7 and the these 2 can be arranged in 21 ways. So the total number of ways = 7 x 2

                  = 14

[(1,2)(2,1) (2,3)(3,2) (3,4)(4,3) (4,5)(5,4) (5,6)(6,5) (6,7)(7,8) (8,7)(7,6)]

Therefore the required probability is

  $=\frac{14}{8!}$

 = $\frac{14}{40320} = 0.000347$

b). The probability that the marketing director to be placed in the leftmost position is

   $=\frac{7!}{8!}$

  $=\frac{1}{8} = 0.125$

c). The two events are not independent because

   $P(A \cap B) \neq P(A) \times P(B)$

  $\frac{12}{8!} \neq \frac{14}{8!} \times \frac{1}{8}$

where A is the case a and B is the case b.

An island is 1 mi due north of its closest point along a straight shoreline. A visitor is staying at a cabin on the shore that i
Elanso [62]

Answer:

The visitor should run approximately 14.96 mile to minimize the time it takes to reach the island

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question, we have;

The distance of the island from the shoreline = 1 mile

The distance the person is staying from the point on the shoreline = 15 mile

The rate at which the visitor runs = 6 mph

The rate at which the visitor swims = 2.5 mph

Let 'x' represent the distance the person runs, we have;

The distance to swim = \sqrt{(15-x)^2+1^2}

The total time, 't', is given as follows;

t = \dfrac{x}{6} +\dfrac{\sqrt{(15-x)^2+1^2}}{2.5}

The minimum value of 't' is found by differentiating with an online tool, as follows;

\dfrac{dt}{dx}  = \dfrac{d\left(\dfrac{x}{6} +\dfrac{\sqrt{(15-x)^2+1^2}}{2.5}\right)}{dx} =  \dfrac{1}{6} -\dfrac{6 - 0.4\cdot x}{\sqrt{x^2-30\cdot x +226} }

At the maximum/minimum point, we have;

\dfrac{1}{6} -\dfrac{6 - 0.4\cdot x}{\sqrt{x^2-30\cdot x +226} } = 0

Simplifying, with a graphing calculator, we get;

-4.72·x² + 142·x - 1,070 = 0

From which we also get x ≈ 15.04 and x ≈ 0.64956

x ≈ 15.04 mile

Therefore, given that 15.04 mi is 0.04 mi after the point, the distance he should run = 15 mi - 0.04 mi ≈ 14.96 mi

t = \dfrac{14.96}{6} +\dfrac{\sqrt{(15-14.96)^2+1^2}}{2.5} \approx 2..89

Therefore, the distance to run, x ≈ 14.96 mile
