Answer:
64r -48r -144
Step-by-step explanation:
The January cost expression is ...
62p -48p -144 -432 = profit
The cost is identified as having 3 components, so the profit will have 4 components:
(selling price)×p - ((cost per unit)×p +(fixed monthly cost)) -(first month startup cost) = profit
Comparing this to the given equation, we identify the components as ...
selling price = 62
cost per unit = 48
fixed monthly cost = 144
first month startup cost = 432
We note that 432 = 3×144, so is consistent with the description of startup costs.
Increasing the selling price by $2 will raise it from 62 to 64. In February, the initial month startup cost disappears, so the profit equation becomes ...
(selling price)×r - ((cost per unit)×r +(fixed monthly cost)) = profit
64r -48r -144 = profit
Answer:
A sample of 16577 is required.
Step-by-step explanation:
In a sample with a number n of people surveyed with a probability of a success of 
, and a confidence level of 
, we have the following confidence interval of proportions.
In which
z is the z-score that has a p-value of 
.
The margin of error is of:
99% confidence level
So 
, z is the value of Z that has a p-value of 
, so 
.
She wants to estimate the proportion using a 99% confidence interval with a margin of error of at most 0.01. How large a sample size would be required?
We have no estimation for the proportion, and thus we use 
, which is when the largest sample size will be needed.
The sample size is n for which M = 0.01. So
Rounding up:
A sample of 16577 is required.
5 milligrams are equal to .005 grams.
