Jimmy and John are trying to put a mixture together of blue jelly beans and red jelly beans for a souvenir gift. The blue jelly

beans cost $0.28 per ounce and the red jelly beans cost $0.55 per ounce. They would like their gift bags to cost $2.20 per bag. Use complete sentences to explain why or why not it would be reasonable to say that the mixture could contain 4 ounces of blue jelly beans and 3 ounces of red jelly beans.

4*.28=1.12.
3*.55=1.65
1.12+1.65=2.77.

4 ounces of blue and 3 of red would go over their budget.

Your firm wants to investigate how much money the typical tourist will spend on their next visit to New York. How many tourists
snow_lady [41]

Answer:  46

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : Margin of error : E= 17

Standard deviation : \sigma=70

Critical value for 90% confidence level :z_{\alpha/2}=1.645

Formula to find sample size is given by :-

n=(\dfrac{z_{\alpha/2}\times \sigma}{E})^2

i.e. n=(\dfrac{(1.645)\times 70}{17})^2

\Rightarrow\ n=45.880700692\approx46

Hence, the required minimum sample size = 46.

Answer the following question about the function whose derivative is given below
Komok [63]

Answer:

a) The critical points are x = 3 and x = -6.

b) f is decreasing in the interval (-\infty, -6)

f is increasing in the intervals (-6,3) and (3,\infty).

c) Local minima: x = -6

Local maxima: No local maxima

Step-by-step explanation:

(a) what are the critical points of f?

The critical points of f are those in which f^{\prime}(x) = 0. So

f^{\prime}(x) = 0

(x-3)^{2}(x+6) = 0

So, the critical points are x = 3 and x = -6.

(b) on what intervals is f increasing or decreasing? (if there is no interval put no interval)

For any interval, if f^{\prime} is positive, f is increasing in the interval. If it is negative, f is decreasing in the interval.

Our critical points are x = 3 and x = -6. So we have those following intervals:

(-\infty, -6), (-6,3), (3, \infty)

We select a point x in each interval, and calculate f^{\prime}(x).

So

-------------------------

(-\infty, -6)

f^{\prime}(-7) = (-7-3)^{2}(-7+6) = (100)(-1) = -100

f is decreasing in the interval (-\infty, -6)

---------------------------

(-6,3)

f^{\prime}(2) = (2-3)^{2}(2+6) = (1)(8) = 8

f is increasing in the interval (-6,3).

------------------------------

(3, \infty)

f^{\prime}(4) = (4-3)^{2}(4+6) = (1)(10) = 10

f is increasing in the interval (3,\infty).

(c) At what points, if any, does f assume local maximum and minima values. ( if there is no local maxima put mo local maxima) if there is no local minima put no local minima

At a critical point x, if the function goes from decreasing to increasing, it is a local minima. And if the function goes from increasing to decreasing, it is a local maxima.

So, for each critical point is this problem:

At x = -6, f goes from decreasing to increasing.

So x = -6, f assume a local minima value

At x = 3, f goes from increasing to increasing. So, there it is not a local maxima nor a local minima. So, there is no local maxima for this function.

nevsk [136]

Answer:

$1950

Step-by-step explanation:

Simple interest amount payable is given by

A=P(1+rt) where p is principal amount, A is final amount paid, t is time and r is rate of interest. For the first case

A=15000(1+0.03*4)=$16800

For second case

A=15000(1+0.05*5)=$18750

Difference will be 18750-16800=$1950
