Organizers of an outdoor summer concert in Toronto are concerned about the weather conditions on the day of the concert. They wi

ll make a profit of $36,000 on a clear day and $17,000 on a cloudy day.They will make a loss of $5,000 if it rains. The weather channel has predicted a 48% chance of rain on the day of the concert. Calculate the expected profit from the concert if the likelihood is 13% that it will be sunny and 39% that it will be cloudy. Do not include the $ sign when you type your answer.

Answer:

The value of the expected profit from the concert is 8,910

Step-by-step explanation:

Profit on a clear day X₁ = 36,000 with  13% probability.  

i.e  X₁ = 36000

    P(X₁) = 0.13

Profit on a cloudy day = 17,000 with 39% probability.

i.e  X₂ = 17000

    P(X₂) = 0.39

else,

loss of 5,000 if it rains with the probability of 48%.

i.e  X₃ = 5000

    P(X₃) = 0.48

The value of the expected profit from the concert is obtained as follows

Expected Value = (36,000*0.13) + (17,000*0.39) - (5,000*0.48)

                           = 4,680 + 6,630 - 2,400

                           = 8,910

What is the equation of the line that represents the horizontal asymptote of the function f(x)=25,000(1+0.025)^(x)?
posledela

Answer:

The answer is below

Step-by-step explanation:

The horizontal asymptote of a function f(x) is gotten by finding the limit as x ⇒ ∞ or x ⇒ -∞. If the limit gives you a finite value, then your asymptote is at that point.

\lim_{x \to \infty} f(x)=A\\\\or\\\\ \lim_{x \to -\infty} f(x)=A\\\\where\ A\ is\ a\ finite\ value.\\\\Given\ that \ f(x) =25000(1+0.025)^x\\\\ \lim_{x \to \infty} f(x)= \lim_{x \to \infty} [25000(1+0.025)^x]= \lim_{x \to \infty} [25000(1.025)^x]\\=25000 \lim_{x \to \infty} [(1.025)^x]=25000(\infty)=\infty\\\\ \lim_{x \to -\infty} f(x)= \lim_{x \to -\infty} [25000(1+0.025)^x]= \lim_{x \to -\infty} [25000(1.025)^x]\\=25000 \lim_{x \to -\infty} [(1.025)^x]=25000(0)=0\\\\

Since\  \lim_{x \to -\infty} f(x)=0\ is\ a\ finite\ value,hence:\\\\Hence\ the\ horizontal\ asymtotes\ is\ at\ y=0

An experiment was conducted to test the effect of a new cholesterol medicine. Fifteen people were treated with medicine X and 15
gtnhenbr [62]

Considering the hypothesis tested and the p-value of the test, the correct option is given by:

There is sufficient evidence that there is a difference in mean cholesterol level when using medicine X and medicine Y.

<h3>What are the hypothesis tested?</h3>

At the null hypothesis, it is tested if there is no difference between the cholesterol levels, that is:

H₀:Hₓ-H

At the alternative hypothesis it is tested if there is a difference, hence:

H₀:Hₓ-H≠0

The p-value is of 0.003 < 0.01, hence we reject the null hypothesis and conclude that there has was a difference, hence the correct option is given by:

There is sufficient evidence that there is a difference in mean cholesterol level when using medicine X and medicine Y.
