Answer:

There is a 0.2419% for a foreman to earn either $1,100 or $900

Explanation:

We calculate the probability of a normal distribution of 0;1

(X-mean)/deviation = Z

(1,100 - 1,000)/100 = 100/100 = 1

900 - 1,00/100 = -100/100 = -1

Given the zame Z value, we have the same probability of a foreman to earn 1,100 or 900

As we are asked for the foreman salary, wewill calcualte the Z for non cumulative, just the probability of a foreman to earn 1,100 or 900 dollars.

We look into the normal distribution table for the value of z = -1 or 1

0.002419707  = 0.2419%

Does the temporal difference learning of optimal utility values (U) require knowledge of the transition probability tables
zhuklara [117]

Answer:

No

Explanation:

Temporal difference or some times written as TD learning process may be defined as an approach to learning that describes how to predict a given  quantity which depends on the future values for a given signal.

TD or temporal difference learning does not require the knowledge of transition probability tables. It only requires the knowledge of state and action plan. It also does not require the knowledge of reward function.

Latesha Moore has a choice at work between a traditional health insurance plan that pays 80 percent of the cost of doctor visits
Lelu [443]

Answer:

Consider the following calculation and analysis

Explanation:

We will analyse from cost perspective, the alternative with lower cost should be selected.

Total no. of doctor visit = 12 monthly visit + 3 times special visit = 15

Cost = 50 * 15 = $750

Under Traditional health checkup plan

Cost of plan = $ 250 + (20% of doctor visiting charges) = 250 + 20% of 750 = $400

Under HMO

Premium = 20 * 12 months = $240

Co payment = 10 * 15 = 150

Total = $ 390

There is a saving of $10 in HMO, so she should opt for this option. Moreover, the benefit of HMO would be the payments are monthly in small installments ,rather than a big outflow as in the case of traditonal plan.

Soloha48 [4]

Answer:

See Explanation

Explanation:

Given

The histogram

Required

The class width

The question is poorly formatted, as the histogram cannot be read. So, I will answer your question with the attached histogram

The class width is:

Width = Upper - Lower\ Limits

Using the first class, as reference:

Lower\ Limits = 1

Upper\ Limits = 4

So, the class width is:

Width = 4 -1

Width = 3

At the local ballpark, the team charges $5 for each ticket and expects to make $1,400 in concessions. the team must pay its play
Sphinxa [80]
To break even they must be able to sell 1,100 tickets during the event. 

The immediate cost is set at
$2,000 (player fees) + $1600 (worker fees) = $3,600

Assuming that fans would reach around 200 people that would be:
$3 X 200 =$600 (free bat costing)

Overall cost would be at: $3,600 + $600 = $4,200

To break even the computation will be as follows: 
2,500 tickets X $5 = $12,500 
$12,500 - $4,200 = $8,300 in earnings
