122 employees

Because

1/2 of 64 is 32
2/3 of 81 is 54
3/4 of 48 is 36

32+54+36=122

Reserve Problems Chapter 4 Section 5 Problem 2 A laptop company claims up to 10.1 hours of wireless web usage for its newest lap

Viktor [21]

Answer:

0.1151

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that a laptop company claims up to 10.1 hours of wireless web usage for its newest laptop battery life. However, reviews on this laptop shows many complaints about low battery life. A survey on battery life reported by customers shows that it follows a normal distribution with mean 9.5 hours and standard deviation 30 minutes.

If X is the battery life then X is N(9.5, 0.5)

(we convert into one unit for calculations purpose here hours)

a) the probability that the battery life is at least 10.1 hours

= $P(X\geq 10.1)\\=P(Z\geq \frac{10.1-9.5}{0.5} )\\= P(Z\geq 1.2)\\=0.1151$

we get the probability that the battery life is at least 10.1 hours is 0.1151

Please help, I think its D but I know that things are usually the opposite of what you think when doing these types of problems.

miskamm [114]

Answer:

A. The graph of g(x) is the graph of f(x) vertically stretched by a factor of 5.

Step-by-step explanation:

The only thing that has changed is that x^2 is multiplied by 5.

If the x^2 is multiplied by a constant that has an absolute value less than 1, the parabola will undergo a vertical compression.

If the x^2 is multiplied by a constant that has an absolute value more than 1, the parabola will undergo a vertical stretch.

Since the absolute value of 5 is more than 1, A. The graph of g(x) is the graph of f(x) vertically stretched by a factor of 5.

Hope this helps!

A company sells widgets. The amount of profit, y, made by the company, is related to the selling price of each widget, x, by the

sineoko [7]

Answer:

x = $34.45

Step-by-step explanation:

Solution:-

The company makes a profit of $y by selling widgets at a price of $x. The profit model is represented by a parabola ( quadratic ) equation as follows:

$y = -10x^2 + 689x -6775$

We are to determine the profit maximizing selling price ( x )

From the properties of a parabola equation of the form:

$y = ax^2 + bx + c$

The vertex ( turning point ) or maximum/minimum point is given as:

$x = -\frac{b}{2a} \\\\x = - \frac{689}{2*(-10)} = \frac{689}{20}\\\\x = 34.45$

The profit maximizing selling price of widgets would be x = $34.45.
