Answer: Harold must not charge more than X=30 per clock

Step-by-step explanation:

Based on Harold's profit equation, charging more than X=30 means Harold will have a profit of zero or a negative profit. therefore the price of a clock should range between 9 and 30

Suppose a random variable x is best described by a uniform probability distribution with range 22 to 55. Find the value of a tha

const2013 [10]

Answer:

(a) The value of <em>a</em> is 53.35.

(b) The value of <em>a</em> is 38.17.

(c) The value of <em>a</em> is 26.95.

(d) The value of <em>a</em> is 25.63.

(e) The value of <em>a</em> is 12.06.

Step-by-step explanation:

The probability density function of <em>X</em> is:

$f_{X}(x)=\frac{1}{55-22}=\frac{1}{33}$

Here, 22 < X < 55.

(a)

Compute the value of <em>a</em> as follows:

$P(X\leq a)=\int\limits^{a}_{22} {\frac{1}{33}} \, dx \\\\0.95=\frac{1}{33}\cdot \int\limits^{a}_{22} {1} \, dx \\\\0.95\times 33=[x]^{a}_{22}\\\\31.35=a-22\\\\a=31.35+22\\\\a=53.35$

Thus, the value of <em>a</em> is 53.35.

(b)

Compute the value of <em>a</em> as follows:

$P(X< a)=\int\limits^{a}_{22} {\frac{1}{33}} \, dx \\\\0.95=\frac{1}{33}\cdot \int\limits^{a}_{22} {1} \, dx \\\\0.49\times 33=[x]^{a}_{22}\\\\16.17=a-22\\\\a=16.17+22\\\\a=38.17$

Thus, the value of <em>a</em> is 38.17.

(c)

Compute the value of <em>a</em> as follows:

$P(X\geq a)=\int\limits^{55}_{a} {\frac{1}{33}} \, dx \\\\0.85=\frac{1}{33}\cdot \int\limits^{55}_{a} {1} \, dx \\\\0.85\times 33=[x]^{55}_{a}\\\\28.05=55-a\\\\a=55-28.05\\\\a=26.95$

Thus, the value of <em>a</em> is 26.95.

(d)

Compute the value of <em>a</em> as follows:

$P(X\geq a)=\int\limits^{55}_{a} {\frac{1}{33}} \, dx \\\\0.89=\frac{1}{33}\cdot \int\limits^{55}_{a} {1} \, dx \\\\0.89\times 33=[x]^{55}_{a}\\\\29.37=55-a\\\\a=55-29.37\\\\a=25.63$

Thus, the value of <em>a</em> is 25.63.

(e)

Compute the value of <em>a</em> as follows:

$P(1.83\leq X\leq a)=\int\limits^{a}_{1.83} {\frac{1}{33}} \, dx \\\\0.31=\frac{1}{33}\cdot \int\limits^{a}_{1.83} {1} \, dx \\\\0.31\times 33=[x]^{a}_{1.83}\\\\10.23=a-1.83\\\\a=10.23+1.83\\\\a=12.06$

Thus, the value of <em>a</em> is 12.06.

Clem Colfax had $10 to buy groceries. He needed milk costing 70 cents a carton, bread costing 60 cents a loaf, breakfast cereal

zaharov [31]

Cost of milk per carton = $ 70 cents = 70/100 = $0.7
Cost of bread per loaf = $60 cents = 60/100 = $0.6
Cost of cereals per box = $50 cents = 50/100 = $0.5
Cost of meat per pound = $1.50

If x is the number of cartons of milk bought, then
Number of loafs = x/2
Number pf boxes of cereals = x/2 +1
Number of pounds of meat = x/2 +1

Therefore,
0.7*x + 0.6*x/2 + 0.5 (x/2+1) + 1.5 (x/2+1) = 10
0.7x + 0.3x + 0.25x + 0.5 + 0.75x + 1.5 = 10
2x + 2 =10
2x = 8
x = 4

Substituting;
Milk cartons = 4
Number of bread = 4/2 = 2
Boxes of cereals = 2+1 = 3
Pounds of meat = 3
