Each morning a deli worker has to make several pies and a bucket of potatoes. On Monday, it took the worker 2 hours to make the

pies and an average of 1.5 min to peel each potato. On Tuesday, the worker finished the work in the same amount of time, but it took 2.5 hours to make the pies and an average of 1 min to peel each potato.

The quantities include hours and minutes.

The the known and unknown quantities can be used to write an equation and this gives 60 minutes.

<h3>How to explain the information?</h3>

It should be noted that there are two different units of time measurement and these are hours and minutes. In this case, once can either convert the hours given to minutes or vice versa.

Therefore,

2 hours = 120 minutes, and

2.5 hours = 150 minutes.

If x represents the number of potatoes in the bucket, then the time to peel all of the potatoes on the first day will be 1.5x.

The quantity added to the 120 minutes spent making pies is the total elapsed time for the first day's work. The first days time is equal to the second day. This will be:

120 + 1.5x = 150 + x

1.5x - x = 150 - 120

0.5x = 30

x = 30/0.5 = 60

The time taken is 60 minutes.

If the standard deviation of a set of data is zero, what can you conclude about the set of values? The sum of the deviations fro
Rashid [163]

Answer:

All values are identical.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the following in the question:

If the standard deviation of a set of data is zero.

Then, all the values in data are identical.

This can be shown as:

Let all the terms in data be x.

Formula:

\text{Standard Deviation} = \sqrt{\displaystyle\frac{\sum (x_i -\bar{x})^2}{n}}  

where x_i are data points, \bar{x} is the mean and n is the number of observations.  

Mean = \displaystyle\frac{\text{Sum of all observations}}{\text{Total number of observation}}

Mean =\displaystyle\frac{nx}{n} = x

Sum of squares of differences =

\displaystyle\sum (x_i - x)^2 = 0

\sigma = \sqrt{\frac{0}{n}} = 0

Thus, the correct answer is

All values are identical.

How can you convert the Heun’s Method into the Implicit Heun’s Method? Show an example
g100num [7]

Answer:

Heun's method is also known by its other name called Modified Euler methods. This method is used in computational or mathematical science.

Step-by-step explanation:

Euler method is the method that is also pronounced in two similar stages such as Runge- Kutta methods. This method has been named after Dr. Heun.

This method is used for the solution of ordinary differential equations with its given values. There is some method to calculate this method. The improved Runge Kutta methods are also called the Butcher tableau method, the other methods are also called the Ralston methods.

Calculate had a net income of 5 million dollars in 2010, while a small competing company, Computate, had a
Julli [10]

9514 1404 393

Answer:

  a) see the attached spreadsheet (table)

  b) Calculate, for a 10-year horizon; Computate for a longer horizon.

  c) Year 13; no

Step-by-step explanation:

a) The attached table shows net income projections for the two companies. Calculate's increases by 0.5 million each year; Computate's increases by 15% each year. The result is rounded to the nearest dollar.

__

b) After year 4, Computate's net income is increasing by more than 0.5 million per year, so its growth is faster and getting faster yet. However, in the first 10 years, Calculate's net income remains higher than that of Computate. If we presume that some percentage of net income is returned to investors, then Calculate may provide a better return on investment.

The scenario given here is only interested in the first 10 years. However, beyond that time frame (see part C), we find that Computate's income growth far exceeds that of Calculate.

__

c) Extending the table through year 13, we see that Computate's net income exceeds Calculate's in that year. It continues to remain higher as long as the model remains valid.
