Hello there.

<span>1. Lucy has a jewelry business. To make a certain necklace, she spends $3.38 on materials and $5.57 on labor. She then sells the necklace for $15.99. Lucy’s profit on the necklace is equal to the sale price minus the cost of materials and labor. 
</span><span>
(a)How much profit does Lucy earn when she sells a necklace? What fraction of the sale price of the necklace is profit? Record your answer as a fraction using whole numbers.
</span>the fraction of the sale price of this necklace would be (704/1599). 

<span>c) Lucy collected $223.86 selling necklaces at a craft fair. How many necklaces did Lucy sell? How much profit did she earn?
</span>223.86/15.99=14 necklaces. 14(7.04)=$98.56 of profit.

Calculate the discriminant and use it to determine how many real-number roots the equation has.
Vladimir79 [104]
In a quadratic equation with the general formula of:

ax^2 + bx + c = 0

The discriminant is equal to b^2 - 4(a)(c). If the answer is a perfect square, then there are two real numbers. If not, then there are no real number root.

The discriminant for this equation is

(-6)^2 - 4(3)(1) = 24

Since 24 is not a perfect square, there are no real number roots.

(a) A lamp has two bulbs, each of a type with average lifetime 1400 hours. Assuming that we can model the probability of failure
Temka [501]

Answer:

For first lamp ; The resultant probability is 0.703

For both lamps; The resultant probability is 0.3614

Step-by-step explanation:

Let X be the lifetime hours of two bulbs

X∼exp(1/1400)

f(x)=1/1400e−1/1400x

P(X<x)=1−e−1/1400x

X∼exp⁡(1/1400)

f(x)=1/1400 e−1/1400x

P(X<x)=1−e−1/1400x

The probability that both of the lamp bulbs fail within 1700 hours is calculated below,

P(X≤1700)=1−e−1/1400×1700

=1−e−1.21=0.703

The resultant probability is 0.703

Let Y be a lifetime of another lamp two bulbs

Then the Z = X + Y will follow gamma distribution that is,

X+Y=Z∼gamma(2,1/1400)

2λZ∼

X+Y=Z∼gamma(2,1/1400)

2λZ∼χ2α2

The probability that both of the lamp bulbs fail within a total of 1700 hours is calculated below,

P(Z≤1700)=P(1/700Z≤1.67)=

P(χ24≤1.67)=0.3614

The resultant probability is 0.3614

2. When there is a strong positive, how do the points look?
motikmotik

When there's a strong positive, the points are: B. Close together.

<h3>Strong Positive Relationship</h3>
  • On a scatter plot, if the data points are close together along the trend line sloping upwards, it means there's a strong positive correlation.
  • Strong positive correlation means the two variables change in the same direction.

Therefore, when there's a strong positive, the points are: B. Close together.

The Frostburg-Truth bus travels on a straight road from Frostburg Mall to Sojourner Truth Park. The mall is 3 miles west and 4 m
geniusboy [140]
We take the distance from points which indicates the location of the park and the mall.

For distance through north and east, we have positive values and negative for west and south. 

Mall:   (-3, -4)
Park:   (3, 5)

The distance is calculate through the equation,
                      d = sqrt ((x₂ - x₁)² + (y₂ - y₁)²)

Substituting,
                      d = sqrt ((-4 - 5)² + (-3 - 3)²
                             d = sqrt 117 = 10.82
Thus, the distance between the mall and the park is approximately 10.82 miles.
