Jenny's bakery sells carrot muffins at 2 dollars each. The electricity to run the over is over 120 dollars per day and the cost

g100num [7]

Answer:

200 muffins

Step-by-step explanation:

The selling price of each muffin = $2

The cost price of each muffin = $1.40

The price of electricity = $120

If the number of muffins that Jenny sells in a day is x, then, Jenny's total cost in a day is:

120 + (1.4 * x) = 120 + 1.4x

and the total sales earnings in a day for x muffins will be:

2 * x = 2x

To break even, the total costs in a day must equal to the total earnings. That is;

$2x = 120 + 1.4x$

Solving this:

$2x - 1.4x = 120\\\\\\0.6x = 120\\\\\\x = 120/0.6\\\\\\x = 200$

She must sell 200 muffins in a day to break even.

There is a 0.9991 probability that a randomly selected 31-year-old male lives through the year. A life insurance company charge

jarptica [38.1K]

Answer:

a) Monetary values corresponding to the two events are:

-In case of surviving the year = -166$

-In case of a death in the year = 89834$

b) Expected value of the purchasing the insurance is -85 $

c) Yes, insurance company can make a profit with this policy.

Step-by-step explanation:

<em>a)</em> The man need to pay 166$ first to enroll the insurance policy. If he survives within a year, he will lose 166$. Otherwise, if he dies within a year he will profit 89834$.

<em>b)</em> Expected value of the purchasing the insurance as following:

<u>-In case of surviving the year: </u>

Value: -166$

Probability: 0,9991

<u>-In case of death in a year </u>

Value: 89834$

Probability: 0,0009

Expected value is E(x) = -166×0,9991 + 89834×0,0009 = -85 $

<em>c)</em> Lets consider that 10000 different 31 year old man enrolled to this insurance policy. According to probability of death, 9 out of 10000 man expected to be dead within the year. Therefore, company need to pay 9*90000 = 810000$ to their costumers. But, company will collect 10000*166=1660000$ from their costumers in the beginning of the year

So, it is expected that company is going to profit 1660000-810000=850000$ per year.

James defines an angle as "a figure consisting of two rays." His statement is not precise enough because he should specify that

riadik2000 [5.3K]

James should define that the rays must be collinear. the two rays coming from the same point will form collinear rays which will form an angle at end point.

The statement of james should be precise in order to clearly explain the angle formation.

The two non collinear rays will form an angle at end point where they meet with each other.

The defined vertex will form the appropriate angle. there should be defined term for the non collinear rays.
