Question:
The operations manager for a well-drilling company must recommend whether to build a new facility, expand his existing one, or do nothing. He estimates that long-run profits (in $000) will vary with the amount of precipitation (rainfall) as follows:
Alternative Precipitation
Low Normal High
Do nothing -100 100 300
Expand 350 500 200
Build new 750 300 0
If he feels the chances of low, normal, and high precipitation are 30 percent, 20 percent, and 50 percent respectively, What is EVPI (Expected value of Perfect Information)?
A. $140,000
B. $170,000
C. $285,000
D. $305,000
E. $475,000
Answer:
D. $170,000
Explanation:
The expected long run profits are for
Low Normal High
Do nothing -100*0.3 100*0.2 300*0.5 = 140
Expand 350*0.3 500*0.2 200*0.5 = 305
Build new 750*0.3 300*0.2 0*0.5 = 285
Therefore the expected long run profits are
$140,000
$305,000
$285,000
Based on his selected option being either to build new or to expand, the most profitable option is to expand
=$305,000
EVPI = EPPI-EMV =$170,000
Answer:
h = 9.57 seconds
Explanation:
It is given that,
Initial speed of Kalea, u = 13.7 m/s
At maximum height, v = 0
Let t is the time taken by the ball to reach its maximum point. It cane be calculated as :
t = 1.39 s
Let h is the height reached by the ball above its release point. It can be calculated using second equation of motion as :
Here, a = -g
h = 9.57 meters
So, the height attained by the ball above its release point is 9.57 meters. Hence, this is the required solution.
You do 1000 divide it by 10 which equals 100 W
they are called "cells"
hope this is the answer is what your looking for.
Answer:
the best graph to find the acceleration is v-t since calculating the slope averages the different experimental errors.
Explanation:
The different graphics depending on time give various information, let's examine what we can get from some
Graph of x -t. from this graph we can obtain the speed through the slope, but the acceleration is not directly obtainable
v-t chart. We can get the acceleration not through the slope and the distance traveled by the area under the curve. Obtaining acceleration is very accurate since it is an average that avoids possible errors in measurements. This is the best graph to find the acceleration
Graph of a-t In this graph the acceleration is a point on the Y axis, it gives some errors because it depends strongly on the possible experimental errors.
In conclusion, the best graph to find the acceleration is v-t since calculating the slope averages the different experimental errors.
