Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

To calculate ;

1) the expected value of the job satisfaction score for senior executives ;

expected value = Summation (Px)

= 1 x 0.05 + 2 x 0.09 + 3 x 0.03 + 4 x 0.42 + 5 x 0.41

= 4.05

2) the expected value of the job satisfaction score for middle managers;

= 1 x 0.04 + 2 x 0.10 + 3 x 0.12 + 4 x 0.46 + 5 x 0.28

= 3.84

c) the variance of job satisfaction scores for executives and middle managers (to 2 decimals).

Executives ; Variance = Summation(PX^2 - Summation(PX)^2

i) For Executive Managers = 1 x 0.05 + 2^2 x 0.09 + 3^2 x 0.03 + 4^2 x 0.42 + 5^2 x 0.41 - 4.05^2 = 1.246 = 1.25

ii) for middle managers ; 1 x 0.04 + 2^2 x 0.10 + 3^2 x 0.12 + 4^2 x 0.46 + 5^2 x 0.28 - 3.84^2 = 1.134 = 1.13

d) the standard deviation of job satisfaction scores for both probability distributions (to 2 decimals). Executives, Middle managers;

For Executives = square root [ 1 x 0.05 + 2^2 x 0.09 + 3^2 x 0.03 + 4^2 x 0.42 + 5^2 x 0.41 - 4.05^2] = 1.12

For Middle Managers ; Square root [1 x 0.04 + 2^2 x 0.10 + 3^2 x 0.12 + 4^2 x 0.46 + 5^2 x 0.28 - 3.84^2 ] = 1.06

e) from the values gotten for the variance of both executive and middle managers, the variance of the former is more than that of the latter as such higher satisfaction with the executive managers.

A pair of flip flops is $30. How much will they cost after a 20% discount and 6.5% tax. Please show your work.
jeka94

Answer:

The flip flops cost $25.56 after the discount and tax.

Step-by-step explanation:

A pair of flip flops is $30. This is our starting amount.

The tax will be applied on the price the flip flops are bought for. This means we must apply the discount first.

The discount is 20%. Let's find what the flip flops were sold for.

If the discount is 20%, the flip flops were sold for 80% of their original price. Let's find 80% of 30.

80% of 30 = ?

0.80 • 30 = ?

= 24

The flip flops were sold for $24.

Now we have to apply a 6.5% tax. To find the amount of money added to the total, we need to find 6.5% of 24.

6.5% of 24 = ?

0.065 • 24 = ?

= 1.56

The tax was $1.56.

We need to add the tax to the discounted price.

1.56 + 24 = ?

= 25.56

The flip flops cost $25.56 after the discount and tax.

Hope this helps!

18) Test the equation for symmetry with respect to the x-axis, the y-axis, and the origin.
nekit [7.7K]

Answer:

x-axis only.

Step-by-step explanation:

2x = 5y2 - 3

Convert to vertex form:

x = 5/2 y^2 - 3/2

This is a parabola  with axis of symmetry  y = 0. The vertex is at (-3/2, 0) and it opens to the right.

The axis of symmetry is the x-axis ( y = 0).
