Consider a firm handling concessions for a sporting event. The firm’s manager needs to know whether to stock up with coffee or col

a and is formulating policies for specific weather predictions. A local agreement restricts the firm to selling only one type of beverage. The firm estimates a $1500 profit selling cola if the weather is cold and a $5000 profit selling cola if the weather is warm. The firm also estimates a $4000 profit selling coffee if it is cold and a $1000 profit selling coffee if the weather is warm. The weather forecast says that there is a 30% of a cold front; otherwise, the weather will be warm. Build a decision tree to assist with the decision. What should the firm handling concessions do?

Answer: Cola is more profitable over Coffee

Step-by-step explanation:

E(cola) = 0.3 * 1500 + 0.7 * 5000

E(cola) = 450 + 3500

E(cola) = 3950

E(coffee) = 0.3 * 4000 + 0.7 * 1000

E(coffee) = 1200 + 700

E(coffee) = 1900

From the decision tree which is attached, and the calculations above, it would be advised that the firm should focus on Cola, since it has a higher expected revenue of $3950, compared to the expected revenue of $1900 for coffee.

Graph the function represented in the table on the coordinate plane.
Umnica [9.8K]
First find out the function for the given table.
Find the slope.
m= (y2-y1)/(x2-x1)
m=(-1-(-3)) / (-1-(-2))
m=(-1+3) / (-1+2)
m=2/1
m=2
Now equation of line:
y-y1=m(x-x1)
y-(-3)=2(x-(-2))
y+3=2(x+2)
y+3=2x+4
y=2x+1
Now plot these points on the graph, we get the attached graph.

Square A has a side length of (2x - 7) and Square B has a side length (-4x + 18). How much bigger is the perimeter of Square B t
stich3 [128]

Answer: 100 - 24x

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula for calculating the perimeter of a square is given by :

P = 4l , where l is the length of the side.

Perimeter of square A will be

P = 4 ( 2x - 7 )

P = 8x - 28

Perimeter of square B will be ;

P = 4 ( -4x + 18 )

P = - 16x + 72

Perimeter of square B - Perimeter of square A implies

-16x + 72 - ( 8x - 28 )

-16x + 72 - 8x + 28

collecting the like terms

-16x - 8x + 72 + 28

-24x + 100

⇒ 100 - 24x

Samantha works at an animal shelter. She decides to track the total number of kittens that are brought in. The
Softa [21]

Answer:

  C) The domain represents the weeks that have passed since Samantha started counting the kittens. The domain is all whole numbers.

Step-by-step explanation:

The problem statement tells you the independent variable w represents weeks that have passed. "Domain" refers to values the independent variable may have, so choices A or B make no sense here.

Time is measured continuously, and fractions of a week are possible. So, the domain could be <em>non-negative real numbers</em>. However, the answer choice D is "<em>all</em> real numbers", which includes negative numbers for which the function makes no sense.

The domain "all whole numbers" includes non-negative integers. It is reasonable to restrict the domain to non-negative integer numbers of weeks, so answer choice C is the best option.

What is the product of 7/8×1/2
Gelneren [198K]

\frac{7}{8}   \times  \frac{1}{2}

=  \frac{7 \times 4}{8}

=  \frac{28}{8}

=  \frac{ \cancel{28}}{ \cancel{8}}

= \frac{14}{4}

=  \frac{ \cancel{14}}{ \cancel{4}}  =  \frac{7}{2}

<h2>The required answer is 7/2 </h2>
