Weather forecasters use a barometer to measure

Zepler [3.9K]

Answer: air pressure

Whenever you hear things like "high pressure" or "low pressure" on weather reports, they measured the pressure using a barometer. Knowing the air pressure helps determine if there is a higher chance of rain or storms for instance.

Typically but not always, high pressure correlates to sunny days and dry weather. Low pressure often brings about rain. This is of course a very oversimplified viewpoint.

The three methods used to classify costs into their fixed and variable components includes:_____.

Allushta [10]

Answer:

a. high-low method.

b. scatter diagrams.

d. least-squares regression.

Step-by-step explanation:

Costing is a measurement of the cost of production of goods and services by assessing the fixed costs and variable costs associated with each step of production.

Fixed cost can be defined as predetermined expenses in a business that remain constant for a specific period of time regardless of the quantity of production or level of outputs. Some examples of fixed costs in business are loan payments, employee salary, depreciation, rent, insurance, lease, utilities etc.

On the other hand, variable costs can be defined as expenses that are not constant and as such usually change directly and are proportional to various changes in business activities. Some examples of variable costs are taxes, direct labor, sales commissions, raw materials, operational expenses etc.

In Financial accounting, the three methods used to classify costs into their fixed and variable components includes high-low method, scatter diagrams and least-squares regression.

The high-low method is a quick and easy way to estimate costs by using historical accounting information from a range of reporting periods.

A scatter diagram (scattergraph) estimate costs by considering all the data points and not just the lowest or highest point.

A least squares regression line is a standard technique in regression analysis used to make the vertical distance obtained from the data points running to the regression line to become very minimal or as small as possible.

Generally, the sum of the residuals of a least squares regression line is always equal to zero.

When Alice spends the day with the babysitter, there is a 0.6 probability that she turns on the TV and watches a show. Her littl

slava [35]

Answer:

a) There is a 48% probability that both Alice and Betty watch TV tomorrow.

b) There is a 48% probability that Betty watches TV tomorrow.

c) There is a 12% probability that only Alice watches TV tomorrow.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have these following probabilities:

A 60% probability that Alice watches TV.

If Alice watches TV, an 80% probability Betty watches TV.

If Alice does not watch TV, a 0% probability that Betty watches TV, since she cannot turn the TV on by herself.

a) What is the probability that both Alice and Betty watch TV tomorrow?

Alice watches 60% of the time. Betty watches in 80% of the time Alice watches. So:

$P = 0.6*0.8 = 0.48$

There is a 48% probability that both Alice and Betty watch TV tomorrow.

b) What is the probability that Betty watches TV tomorrow?

Since Betty only watches when Alice watches(80% of the time), this probability is the same as the probability of both of them watching. So

$P = 0.6*0.8 = 0.48$

There is a 48% probability that Betty watches TV tomorrow.

c) What is the probability that only Alice watches TV tomorrow?

There is a 60% probability that Alice watches TV tomorrow. If she watches, there is an 80% probability that Betty watches and a 20% probability she does not watch.

$P = 0.6*0.2 = 0.12$

There is a 12% probability that only Alice watches TV tomorrow.
