C(x)=- 0.3x^2+600x
y=ax^2+bx+c
it shows a upside down parabola equation.
to find maximum value we need to find its vertex(h,k)
as this is a standard quadratic equation we need to see parabolis equation too
y=a(x-h)^2+k
if u see this eq^n K would be the maximum value of Y if x=h.
  where h,k are vertex of parabola.

h=-b/2a(derived standard formula)
C(x)=- 0.3x^2+600x
y=ax^2+bx+c
a= -0.3 b=600
h=-600/-0.3
h= 2000
put h in place of x to get K
K= -0.3(2000)^2+600(2000)
K= - 1200000+1200000
K=0

u gets k=0
means C(x)=0
600x= -0.3x^2
600= 0.3x
x=6000/3
x= 2000 units

Use dimensional analysis to convert the quantity to the indicated units.
Eva8 [605]

Answer:

27 ft = 324 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

We want to use dimensional analysis to convert a quantity here

27 ft to inches

Mathematically;

12 inches = 1 ft

so;

x inches = 27 ft

So the number of inches will be 27 * 12 = 324 inches

In a population of similar households, suppose the weekly supermarket expense for a typical household is normally distributed wi
Rina8888 [55]

Answer:

P(Y ≥ 15) = 0.763

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

Mean =135

standard deviation = 12

sample size n  = 50

sample mean \overline x = 140

Suppose X is the random variable that follows a normal distribution which represents the weekly supermarket expenses

Then,

X \sim N ( \mu \sigma)

The probability that X is greater than 140 is :

P(X>140) = 1 - P(X ≤ 140)

P(X>140) = 1 - P( \dfrac{X-\mu}{\sigma} \leq \dfrac{140-135}{12})

P(X>140) = 1 - P( \dfrac{X-\mu}{\sigma} \leq \dfrac{5}{12})

P(X>140) = 1 - P( Z\leq0.42)

From z tables,

P(X>140) = 1 - 0.6628

P(X>140) = 0.3372

Similarly, let consider Y to be the variable that follows a binomial distribution of the no of household whose expense is greater than $140

Then;

Y \sim Binomial (np)

Y \sim Binomial (50,0.3372)

∴

P(Y ≥ 15) = 1- P(Y< 15)

P(Y ≥ 15) = 1 - ( P(Y=0) + P(Y=1) + P(Y=2) + ... + P(Y=14) )

P(Y \geq 15) = 1 - \begin {pmatrix} ^{50}_0 \end {pmatrix} (0.3372)^0 (1-0,3372)^{50} + \begin {pmatrix} ^{50}_1 \end {pmatrix} (0.3372)^1 (1-0,3372)^{49}  + \begin {pmatrix} ^{50}_2 \end {pmatrix} (0.3372)^2 (1-0,3372)^{48} +...  + \begin {pmatrix} ^{50}_{50{ \end {pmatrix} (0.3372)^{50} (1-0,3372)^{0}

P(Y ≥ 15) = 0.763

The width of a rectangle measures
Airida [17]

Answer:

Option (1)

Step-by-step explanation:

Length of a rectangle = (5.9d + 8.3f) cm

Width of the rectangle = (7.3d + 2.2f) cm

Since formula to get he perimeter of a rectangle is,

Perimeter = 2(length + width)

                = 2[(7.3d + 2.2f) + (5.9d + 8.3f)]

                = 2(13.2d + 10.5f)

                = (26.4d + 21f) cm

Therefore, Option (1) will be the correct option.
