Lily made $75.36 more than Layla did.  If Layla raised her price to $1.00, she would still not make more money than Lily.

Use a proportion to find the number of cupcakes Lily makes in 8 hours.  She bakes 7 cupcakes in 10 minutes; we want to know how many she makes in 8(60)=480 (since there are 8 hours and each hour is 60 minutes):

7/10 = x/480

Cross multiply:
7*480 = 10*x
3360 = 10x

Divide both sides by 10:
3360/10 = 10x/10
336 = x

Lily bakes 336 cupcakes.

She sells 2/3 of these; 2/3(336) = 2/3(336/1) = 672/3 = 224 cupcakes sold.

Each cupcake is sold for $1.29; 224(1.29) = 288.96

To find the number of cupcakes Layla makes in 8 hours, we set up a different proportion.  We know she bakes 8 cupcakes in 12 minutes; we want to know how many she bakes in 8(60) = 480 minutes:

8/12 = x/480
8*480 = 12*x
3840 = 12x

Divide both sides by 12:
3840/12 = 12x/12
320 = x

She bakes 320 cupcakes.  She sells 75% of those; 75% = 75/100 = 0.75:
0.75(320) = 240

Each of those 240 cupcakes sells for $0.89:
0.89(240) = 213.60

This means Lily makes 288.96-213.60 = 75.36 more than Layla.

If Layla raised her price to $1.00, she would make 1(240) = $240; this is still less than Lily.

16. From past experience, a company has found that in cartons of transistors, 92% contain no defective transistors, 3% contain o
Lynna [10]

Answer:

E(x)=0.15

V(x)=0.3075

S(x)=0.5545

Step-by-step explanation:

The mean of a discrete variable is calculated as:

E(x)=x_1*p(x_1)+x_2*p(x_2)+...+x_n*p(n)

where x_1,x_2,...,x_n are the values that the variable can take and p(x_1),p(x_2),...,p(x_n) are their respective probabilities.

So, if we call x the number of defective transistors in cartons, we can calculate the mean E(x) as:

E(x)=(0*0.92)+(1*0.03)+(2*0.03)+(3*0.02)=0.15

Because there are 0 defective transistor with a probability of 0.92, 1 defective transistor with a probability of 0.03, 2 defective transistors with a probability of 0.03 and 3 defective transistors with a probability of 0.01.

At the same way, the variance V(x) is calculated as:

V(x)=E(x^2)-(E(x))^2

Where E(x^2)=x_1^2*p(x_1)+x_2^2*p(x_2)+...+x_n^2*p(n)

So, the variance V(x) is equal to:

E(x^2)=(0^2*0.92)+(1^2*0.03)+(2^2*0.03)+(3^2*0.02)=0.33\\V(x)=0.33-(0.15)^2\\V(x)=0.3075

Finally, the standard deviation is calculated as:

S(x)=\sqrt{V(x)} \\S(x)=\sqrt{0.3075} \\S(x)=0.5545
