4. I want to open a bakery and I am considering locations at two different shopping centers. Use expected value to determine whi

ch location I should use.
Location 1: Location 2:
According to my consultant, if the bakery is successful, I can anticipate an annual profit of $300,000. If it’s not successful, I can anticipate an annual loss of $100,000. The probability of success of this location is 0.5.
According to my consultant, if the bakery is successful, I can anticipate an annual profit of $200,000. It it’s not successful, I can anticipate an annual loss of $60,000. The probability of success at this location is 0.75.

For location 1:
Probability of success = 0.5
Probability of failure  = 1 - Probability of success = 0.5

Expected Value for Location 1 will be:
E(1)=0.5(300000)-0.5(100000)=$100000

For location 2:
Probability of success = 0.75
Probability of failure = 1 - 0.75 = 0.25
So, expected value for Location 2 will be:
E(2)=0.75(200000)-0.25(60000)=$135000

The expected value from Location 2 is larger than Location 1, so Location 2 must be used to open up a bakery.

Y= -2/3x - 2 2x + y = 2 Find the solution of the systems of linear equation by graphing
egoroff_w [7]
Answer:

x = 3, y = -4

Explanations:

The given system of linear equations is:

\begin{gathered} y\text{ = }\frac{-2}{3}x\text{ - 2}\ldots\ldots\ldots\ldots.(1) \\ 2x\text{ + y = 2}\ldots\ldots\ldots\ldots\text{.}\mathrm{}(2) \end{gathered}

The graph representing the equations is plotted below:

\begin{gathered} \text{The red line represents y = }\frac{-2}{3}x\text{ -2} \\ \text{The blue line represents 2x + y = 2} \end{gathered}

The point where both lines intersect is the solution to the system of equations.

The lines intersect at the point (3, -4), therefore, (3, -4) is the solution to the system of equations
