You are a personnel director and are interested in predicting the Number of Shares of Company Stock (Y) using the Number of Year

s Employed with the Company (X). You randomly selected 8 employees and found that the average number of shares is 525 and the average number of years employed is 22.5. If the slope (b1) is 20.0, what is the least squares estimate of the intercept (b0)

Answer:

intercept=b0=75

Step-by-step explanation:

The least squares estimate of the intercept b0 can be computed as

b0=ybar-b1*xbar.

ybar=average number of shares of company stock=525.

xbar= average number of years employed=22.5.

slope=b1=20.

Thus,

intercept=b0=ybar-b1*xbar

intercept=b0=525-20*22.5

intercept=b0=525-450

intercept=b0=75.

Thus, the estimate of intercept b0=75.

I'm trying to evaluate and solve this quadratic function and I get so lost on word problems I will include a picture
SashulF [63]

Given:

The Revenue function R(x):

R(x)\text{ = 550x}

The cost function C(x) :

C(x)=1240+2x^2

Solution

1. Profit is the difference between the revenue and the cost. Hence, the Profit function P(x) is:

\begin{gathered} P(x)\text{ = R(x) - C(x)} \\ =550x-(1240+2x^2) \\ =550x-1240-2x^2 \end{gathered}

2. The vertical intercept of P(x) can be obtained by substituting x =0 into P(x)

\begin{gathered} P(x)=550x-1240-2x^2 \\ P(0)\text{ = 0 -1240 -0} \\ P(0)\text{ = -1240} \end{gathered}

Ordered Pair : (0, -1240)

If the company sells no items, they would lose $ 1240
