Answer:

C = 75 + 0.17x and R = 2x

2x - (75 + 0.17x) > 0

x ≥ 41

Step-by-step explanation:

The cost to make the cupcakes is a fixed $75 plus $0.17 per cupcakes made and the selling price of each cupcake is $2.00.

Part A: Now, the equation for the cost, C, for making x cupcakes is  

C = 75 + 0.17x ......... (1)

Again the equation for the revenue, R, from selling x cupcakes is

R = 2x ............ (2)

Part B: So, the inequality that could be solved to find the number of cupcakes, x, that must be made and sold to make a profit is  

R - C > 0

2x - (75 + 0.17x) > 0 ......... (3)

Part C: Solving inequality (3) we get

(2 - 0.17)x > 75

⇒ x > 40.98

⇒ x ≥ 41 {Since, x can not be a fraction}

kipiarov [429]

Answer:

The p-value of the test is 0.0041 < 0.05, which means that there is sufficient evidence at the 0.05 significance level to conclude that the mean cost has increased.

Step-by-step explanation:

The average undergraduate cost for tuition, fees, and room and board for two-year institutions last year was $13,252. Test if the mean cost has increased.

At the null hypothesis, we test if the mean cost is still the same, that is:

H_0: \mu = 13252

At the alternative hypothesis, we test if the mean cost has increased, that is:

H_1: \mu > 13252

The test statistic is:

We have the standard deviation for the sample, which means that the t-distribution is used to solve this question

t = \frac{X - \mu}{\frac{s}{\sqrt{n}}}

In which X is the sample mean, \mu is the value tested at the null hypothesis, s is the standard deviation and n is the size of the sample.

13252 is tested at the null hypothesis:

This means that \mu = 13252

The following year, a random sample of 20 two-year institutions had a mean of $15,560 and a standard deviation of $3500.

This means that n = 20, X = 15560, s = 3500

Value of the test statistic:

t = \frac{X - \mu}{\frac{s}{\sqrt{n}}}

t = \frac{15560 - 13252}{\frac{3500}{\sqrt{20}}}

t = 2.95

P-value of the test and decision:

The p-value of the test is found using a t-score calculator, with a right-tailed test, with 20-1 = 19 degrees of freedom and t = 2.95. Thus, the p-value of the test is 0.0041.

The p-value of the test is 0.0041 < 0.05, which means that there is sufficient evidence at the 0.05 significance level to conclude that the mean cost has increased.
