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.

Solve the equation for all real solutions in simplest form.<br> 3x2 - 12x + 11 = x
Ivanshal [37]

Answer:

(13 + or - (sign) square root(37)) / 6

Step-by-step explanation:

First search up the quadratic formula which is

x = (- b + or - square root(b^2 - 4ac)) / 2a

and to find a, b, and c you need this formula

ax^2 + bx + c = 0 (btw this is the safest solution to finding your answer with a number in-front of a quadratic equation.)

Math:

a = 3, b = -13, c = 11

b = -13, because of the x on the other end of the equation as the equation above "ax^2 + bx + c = 0" you need the zero to proceed to this next step.

Side Note: You only take the number and not the variable, variables are x, y, w, z, or etc.

(- (- 13) + or - square root((-13)^2 - 4(3)(11) ) ) / 2 * 3

13 + or - square root(37) / 6

Help and explain how you got it.<br><br> no trolling or report!
Galina-37 [17]

Answer:

I am 100% confident in my calculations. I'm not 100% sure about interpreting. Sorry I can't be of more help.

Part A:

Median: 4.5

IQR: 3.5

Mode: 6

I think the median/IQR is a better measure of center and variability because the range of data is so big (10 - 0 = 10), and the data skews to the right with the 6s.

Part B:

I would say no. It is the one that occurs most frequently, but there are many more times she rides less than 6, which is why the median is 4.5

Step-by-step explanation:

Mean: 4.714

MAD: 2.43

Median: 4.5

IQR: 3.5

Mode: 6

the number set in order:

0, 2, 2, 2.5, 2.5, 3, 4, 5, 6, 6, 6, 8, 9, 10

The median (middle number) is two numbers: 4 and 5, so the median is 4.5

The first quartile/Q1 (middle of the bottom half of data) is 2.5, the third quartile/Q3 (middle of the top half of data) is 6. So the IQR (interquartile range) is 6 - 2.5 = 3.5

The mean is the sum of the numbers divided by the quantity of the numbers, so 66/14 = 4.714

the mean absolute deviation is found by calculating the mean, and then finding the absolute value of the difference between each number of the set and the mean...then adding those together and finding the mean of that set. Labor intensive, but that's 34/14 = 2.42857143
