Answer:

a. 5218 hot dogs

b. 18 runs per year

c. 1 day per run

Step-by-step explanation:

(a) Let n represent the number of hotdogs in an optimal run. The number of runs needed in a year is ...

r = (260 hotdogs/day)·(365 days/year)/(n hotdogs/run) = 94900/n runs/year

The number of hotdogs in storage decreases from n at the end of a run to 0 just before a run. The decrease is linear, so the average number in storage is n/2.

We can go to the trouble to write the equation for total cost, then differentiate it to find the value of n at the minimum, or we can just jump to the solution. That solution is ...

holding cost = setup cost

(n/2)·0.46 = (94900/n)·66

n^2 = 94900·66·2/0.46 = 27,232,173.9

n ≈ 5218.446

The optimal number of hotdogs in a run is 5218.

___

(b) The number of runs needed per year is (from part (a)) ...

r = 94900/5218 ≈ 18.187

The number of runs per year is 18.

___

(c) The run lenght is 5218 hotdogs, and the run produces them at the rate of 5500 hotdogs/day, so the run length in days is ...

(5218 hotdogs)/(5500 hotdogs/day) = 0.9487 days

The run length is 1 day.

I can’t figure this out, any help?
saveliy_v [14]

if the spinner is fair , it will land on green for 60 times , there are 24% chances for the spinner to land on purple ,For 1000 spins it will land 150 times on blue

<h3>What is Probability ?</h3>

Probability can be defined as the study to predict the likelihood of an event.

It has a range from 0 to 1.

Probability if the spinner is fair is 1/5 for each colour.

As it is spun 300 times

(1/5) * 300 = 60 times

So if the spinner is fair , it will land on green for 60 times.

(b) The probability of landing on purple theoretically is 60times , 20 % chances

but it can be seen from the data provided that for 300 spins , the spinner landed for 72 times

which is 24% , i.e. there are 24% chances for the spinner to land on purple.

(c)Theoretically blue has 20% chances 200 times , But it is seen in the data obtained that

for 300 spins the spinner is landing on blue for 45 times.

For 1000 spins it will land 1000*45/300 = 150 times.
