The amount of overtime Susan can work is 4 hours.

<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>

It is given that, Susan earns $91 per day.

This means that, her usual pay is $91 which is the Susan's default pay per day.

From the given information,

  • It is known that, she cannot earn more than $147 in a day.
  • The amount of money she could get for each additional hour = $14

<u>The question is asked to write an inequality,</u>

Let the number of overtime Susan worked be 'x'.

The relationship between the number of hours of overtime Susan worked and her earnings is given by :

(amount of money for each additional hour × number of overtime hours worked) ≤ (maximum pay Susan can earn - Susan's default pay)

⇒ 14x ≤ (147-91)

⇒ 14x ≤ 56

Therefore, the above relation 14x ≤ 56 gives the  amount of overtime Susan can work.

Put x = 1 hour overtime,

14 ≤ 56

Put x = 2 hours overtime,

28 ≤ 56

Put x = 3 hours overtime,

42 ≤ 56

Put x = 4 hours overtime,

56 ≤ 56

Therefore, Susan can work up to 4 hours of over time.

Digiron [165]

Answer:

The mean of the random variable is 0.

The variance of the random variable is \frac{3}{2}

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the following probability distribution:

P(X = -2) = \frac{1}{8}

P(X = -1) = \frac{2}{8}

P(X = 0) = \frac{2}{8}

P(X = 1) = \frac{2}{8}

P(X = 2) = \frac{1}{8}

Mean:

Sum of each value multiplied by its probabilities. So

E(X) = -2\frac{1}{8} -1\frac{2}{8} + 0\frac{2}{8} + 1\frac{2}{8} + 2\frac{1}{8} = \frac{-2 -1 0 + 1 + 2}{8} = \frac{0}{8} = 0

The mean of the random variable is 0.

Variance:

Sum of the difference squared between each value and the mean, multiplied by its probabilities. So

V(X) = \frac{1}{8}(-2-0)^2 +\frac{2}{8}(-1-0)^2 + \frac{2}{8}(0-0)^2 + \frac{2}{8}(1-0)^2 + \frac{1}{8}(2-0)^2 = \frac{4 + 2 + 0 + 2 + 4} = \frac{12}{8} = \frac{3}{2}

The variance of the random variable is \frac{3}{2}
