An author receives a contract from a publisher, according to which she is to be paid a fixed sum of $20,000 plus $3.50 for each

Schach [20]

Answer:

The mean of the total payments she will receive is $79,500.

The standard deviation of the total payments she will receive is $14,000.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : An author receives a contract from a publisher, according to which she is to be paid a fixed sum of $20,000 plus $3.50 for each copy of her book sold. The author judges that her uncertainty about total sales of the book can be represented by a random variable with a mean of 17,000 and a standard deviation of 4,000 books.

To find : The mean and standard deviation of the total payments she will receive ?

Solution :

Let 'x' represent total sales of the book.

Let 'y' represent the payment to the author.

According to question,

The mean of the total payments she will receive is given by,

$\mu_y=20,000+3.50\mu_x$

Where, $\mu_x=17,000$

Substitute in the equation,

$\mu_y=20000+3.50\times 17000$

$\mu_y=20000+59500$

$\mu_y=79500$

The mean of the total payments she will receive is $79,500.

The standard deviation of the total payments she will receive is given by,

$\sigma_y=|3.50|\sigma_x$

Where, $\sigma_x=4,000$

Substitute in the equation,

$\sigma_y=|3.50|\times 4000$

$\sigma_y=14000$

The standard deviation of the total payments she will receive is $14,000.

What is the numerator of the fraction equivalent to 3\5 that has a denominator of 30

aliya0001 [1]

Well, the numerator is the number on top, so in the fraction 3/5, 3 is the numerator. To find the equation with a denominator of 30 that is equivalent, find what the difference is. 30/5 = 6. So now, multiply the numerator by 6. 6 * 3 = 18. The new fraction is 18/30. The numerator is 18. Hope this helps!

In a free-fall experiment, an object is dropped from a height of h = 400 feet. A camera on the ground 500 ft from the point of i

PilotLPTM [1.2K]

Hmmm the object, is at rest, when dropped, so it has a velocity of 0 ft/s

the only force acting on the object, is gravity, using feet will then be -32ft/s²,

was wondering myself on -32 or 32.. but anyhow... we'll settle for the negative value, since it seems to be just a bit of convention issues

so, we'll do the integral to get v(t) then

$\bf \displaystyle \int -32\cdot dt\implies -32t+C
\\\\\\
\textit{object moves from \underline{rest}, so velocity is 0 at 0secs}
\\\\\\
-32(0)+C=0\implies C=0\implies \boxed{v(t)=-32t}
\\\\\\
\textit{now to get the positional s(t)}
\\\\\\
\displaystyle \int -32t\cdot dt\implies -16t^2+C
\\\\\\
\textit{the initial \underline{position} was 400ft away at 0secs}
\\\\\\
-16(0)^2+C=400\implies C=400\implies \boxed{s(t)=-16t^2+400}$

when will it reach the ground level? let's set s(t) = 0

$\bf s(t)=-16t^2+400\implies 0=-16t^2+400\implies \cfrac{-400}{-16}=t^2
\\\\\\
25=t^2\implies \boxed{5=t}$
