Charlotte earns 2.30

Schach [20]3 years ago
8 0
X: earn per  hour during the week
y: earn per hour during the weekend

13x + 14y = 250.90
15x + 8y = 204.70

Multiply the first equation by 4 and the second equation by 7

52x + 56y = 1003.6
105x + 56y = 1432.90

Subtract the first equation from the second:

 53x = 429.30

x = 429.30/ 53
x = 8.10

Solve any of the equation for y:

15x + 8y = 204.70

y = [204.70 - 15(8.10)]/8 = 10.40

y - x = 10.40 -8.10 = 2.30

Answer: she earns $2.30 per hour more during the weekend than during the week.

Yakvenalex [24]

Answer:

  -$500

Step-by-step explanation:

The expected value of a payment from the policy is ...

  $500,000 × 0.002 = $1000

Since the business pays $1500 for the policy, the expected value to the business is ...

  $1000 - 1500 = -$500 . . . per year

_____

Of course, the expected value to the insurance company is $500 per year.

_____

We have computed on the basis of 1 claim per year. If we consider the possibility of multiple independent claims, then the expected payment from the insurance goes up by a factor of 1/(1 -0.002) ≈ 1.002004008016.... This has the effect of increasing the expected value by $2.00 per year to -$498.
