How many years will it take for a person in the United States eat 1,120 pounds of turkey (14 pounds)

1 answer:

3 0

If I understand you, a person eats about 14 pounds of turkey a year. So we will divide all that turkey (1120 pounds) by 14 to find out how many years.

1,120 ÷ 14 = 80 So it will take 80 years. (Since babies can't eat that much turkey a year it will actually take more than 80 years - or the person can eat more than 14 pounds in some years to make up for their early years when they ate less) I know it's a math question, but I also like to be realistic about it. Who measures the amount of turkey they eat yearly anyway? :-)

A construction company plans to invest in a building project. There is a 30% chance that the company will lose $30,000, a 40% ch

Gnom [1K]

Answer: Option 'A' is correct.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we have given that

30% chance that the company will lose $30000.

40% chance of a break even that there is no loss and no profit.

30% chance that the company will profit $ 60000.

As we know the formula for "Expectation":

So, Expected value will be

$\frac{30}{100}\times (-30000)+\frac{40}{100}\times 0+\frac{30}{100}\times 60000\\\\=03\times (-30000)+0.4\times 0+0.3\times 60000\\\\=-9000+18000\\\\=\$9000$

Expected value is $9000. So, the company should proceed with the project.

Hence, Option 'A' is correct.
