Answer:

there is no price for which weekly revenue would be 1800

Step-by-step explanation:

If there is a solution to the equation ...

r = 1800 = -4p² +40p +1287

then there is a solution to ...

4p² -40p +513 = 0

Comparing this to the standard form quadratic equation

$ax^2+bx+c=0$

we can match coefficients to see that ...

a = 4
b = -40
c = 513

The discriminant of a quadratic is ...

$d=b^2-4ac\\\\d=(-40)^2-4(4)(513) = 1600-8208 = -6608$

When we fill in the numbers and evaluate, we find the discriminant is negative. This tells us that solutions to the equation are complex—there are no real solutions, meaning there is no price that will give $1800 weekly revenue.

_____

A graph shows the highest weekly revenue obtainable at any price is $1387, so there is no price that will give revenue of $1800.

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

A tech company bought a number of computers for its employees: 6 costing $1600 each, 4 costing $1200 each, and y costing $900 each, where y is a positive odd integer. what is the greatest possible value of y

Solution:

The median of a group of numbers is the middle number when the group of numbers have been arranged either in ascending of descending other. The median of an even group of numbers is the average of the two most middle most numbers while the median of an odd group of numbers is the middle number.

Since there are 6 computers costing $1600, 4 computers costing $1200 each and y computers costing $900 each. Since y is odd, hence y + 6 + 4 would be odd and the median would be the middle number.

Given that the median price = $1200, this means that the middle of the group of numbers is $1200

900, 900, ..., 1200, 1200, 1200, 1200, 1600, 1600, 1600, 1600, 1600, 1600

Since y is odd, for the median price to be $1200, y has to be 3 or 5.

If y = 3:

900, 900, 900, 1200, 1200, 1200, 1200, 1600, 1600, 1600, 1600, 1600, 1600

median = $1200

If y = 5:

900, 900, 900, 900, 900, 1200, 1200, 1200, 1200, 1600, 1600, 1600, 1600, 1600, 1600

Median = $1200

Therefore the greatest possible value of y is 5

Which measures of central tendency would be affected if the outlier 11 was added to the following set 27,20,34,37,21,42,39

MrRa [10]

Answer:

Median will not be affected by the outlier.

Step-by-step explanation:

With the outlier, the mean will be dragged way down. The median will likely be about the same. Mean is non-resistant to outliers, median is resistant.

Hope this helps!
