Answer:

Inequality: 7.5x – 100 > 79.86 + 5.8x

Solution: x>106

The company must sell at least 106 items to make a profit.

Step-by-step explanation:

Hi, to answer this question we have to analyze the information given:

Revenue: 7.5x – 100

Costs: 79.86 + 5.8x

To make a profit, a company’s revenue must be greater than its operating costs.

So:

7.5x – 100 > 79.86 + 5.8x

Solving for x (number of items sold)

7.5x-5.8x>79.86+100

1.7x >179.86

x>179.86/1.7

x> 105.8

x>106

The company must sell at least 106 items to make a profit.

Solution :

We know that

$H_0: \mu_1 = \mu_2=\mu_3$

$H_1 :$ At least one mean is different form the others (claim)

We need to find the critical values.

We know k = 3 , N = 35, α = 0.05

d.f.N = k - 1

= 3 - 1 = 2

d.f.D = N - k

= 35 - 3 = 32

SO the critical value is 3.295

The mean and the variance of each sample :

Goust Jet red Cloudtran

$\overline X_1 =50.5$ $\overline X_2 =50.07143$ $\overline X_3 =55.71429$

$s_1^2=19.96154$ $s_2^2=14.68681$ $s_3^2=36.57143$

The grand mean or the overall mean is(GM) :

$\overline X_{GM}=\frac{\sum \overline X}{N}$

$=\frac{51+51+...+49+49}{35}$

= 52.1714

The variance between the groups

$s_B^2=\frac{\sum n_i\left( \overline X_i - \overline X_{GM}\right)^2}{k-1}$

$=\frac{\left[14(50.5-52.1714)^2+14(52.07143-52.1714)^2+7(55.71426-52.1714)^2\right]}{3-1}$

$=\frac{127.1143}{2}$

= 63.55714

The Variance within the groups

$s_W^2=\frac{\sum(n_i-1)s_i^2}{\sum(n_i-1)}$

$=\frac{(14-1)19.96154+(14-1)14.68681+(7-1)36.57143}{(14-1)+(14-1)+(7-1)}$

$=\frac{669.8571}{32}$

= 20.93304

The F-test statistics value is :

$F=\frac{s_B^2}{s_W^2}$

$=\frac{63.55714}{20.93304}$

= 3.036212

Now since the 3.036 < 3.295, we do not reject the null hypothesis.

So there is no sufficient evidence to support the claim that there is a difference among the means.

The ANOVA table is :

Between 127.1143 2 63.55714 3.036212

Follow the steps to solve this equation. 3(2x + 6) – 4x = 2(5x – 2) + 6 1. Use the distributive property: 6x + 18 – 4x = 10x – 4

Yuliya22 [10]

Answer:

$x=2$ .

Step-by-step explanation:

We have been given an equation $3(2x+6)-4x=2(5x-2)+6$ . We are supposed to solve our given equation step by step.

Step 1: Use the distributive property.

$3\cdot 2x+3\cdot 6-4x=2\cdot 5x-2\cdot 2+6$

$6x+18-4x=10x-4+6$

Step 2: Combine like terms.

$6x-4x+18=10x-4+6$

$2x+18=10x+2$

Step 3: Use subtraction property of equality:

$2x-2x+18-2=10x-2x+2-2$

$16=8x$

Step 4: Use the division property of equality:

$\frac{16}{8}=\frac{8x}{8}$

$2=x$

Therefore, the solution of our given equation is $x=2$ .

Find the area of the semicircle. diameter = 12

dimaraw [331]

Answer:

$\huge\boxed{\sf Area\ of \ Semicircle = 56.55 \ units^2}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Diameter = 12

Radius = 12/2 = 6

$\sf Area\ of \ Semicircle =\frac{\pi r^2}{2} \\Area\ of \ Semicircle =\frac{\pi (6)^2}{2} \\Area \ of \ Semicircle = \frac{\pi (36)}{2}\\ Area \ of \ Semicircle = 18 \ pi$

$\sf Area\ of \ Semicircle = 56.55 \ units^2$
