A retail store sells two types of shoes, sneakers and sandals. The store owner pays $8 for the sneakers and $14 for the sandals.

The sneakers can be sold for $10 and the sandals can be sold for $17. The owner of the store estimates that she won't sell more than 200 shoes each month, and doesn't plan to invest more that $2,000 on inventory of the shoes. How many of each type of shoe should be stocked in order to maximize her total monthly profit?

Answer:

134 sneakers and 66 sandals

Step-by-step explanation:

Sneakers= x, sandals= y

Profit rate:

  • sneakers: (10-2)/8= 25%
  • sandals: (17-14)/14= 21.4%

Sneakers are more profitable, so it should be maximized.

Cost:

8x+14y≤2000

x+y≤200

if we assume the maximum of 200 shoes stocked, then:

x= 200-y

8(200-y)+14y ≤ 2000

1600 - 8y +14y ≤ 2000

6y≤400

y≤66 and x=134 is the best option

The contents of a sample of 26 cans of apple juice showed a standard deviation of 0.06 ounces. We are interested in testing to d
NikAS [45]

Answer:

Option b. should not be rejected

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that the contents of a sample of 26 cans of apple juice showed a standard deviation of 0.06 ounces.

We have to test whether the variance of the population is significantly more than 0.003, i.e.;

  Null Hypothesis, H_0 : \sigma = \sqrt{0.003}

Alternate Hypothesis, H_1 : \sigma > \sqrt{0.003}

The test statistics used here for testing variance is;

          T.S. = \frac{(n-1)s^{2} }{\sigma^{2} } ~ \chi^{2}__n_-_1

where, s = sample standard deviation = 0.06

           n = sample size = 26 cans

So, Test statistics = \frac{(26-1)0.06^{2} }{0.003 } ~ \chi^{2}__2_5

                            = 30

So, at 5% level of significance chi square table gives critical value of 37.65 at 25 degree of freedom. Since our test statistics is less than the critical so we have insufficient evidence to reject null hypothesis.

Therefore, we conclude that null hypothesis should not be rejected and variance of population is 0.003.

Which expressions are equivalent to the equation
Ivahew [28]

Answer:

The correct answer is option 3

2⁻¹⁰ and 1/1024

Step-by-step explanation:

Points to remember

1). ( xᵃ)ᵇ = xᵇ

2).  x⁻ᵃ = 1/xᵃ

It is given that, (2⁵)⁻²

<u>To find the equivalent of (2⁵)⁻²</u>

(2⁵)⁻² =  2⁻¹⁰

<u>To find the value of 2⁻¹⁰</u>

2⁻¹⁰ = 1/2¹⁰

2¹⁰ = 1024

1/2¹⁰ = 1/1024

Therefore the correct answer is 3rd option

2⁻¹⁰ and 1/1024
