Answer:

20 represent the cost per variable inputs

Step-by-step explanation:

C(x) = 20(4x) + 500

Total cost is the addition of variable cost and fixed cost

Fixed cost are cost that do not change during the production process such as machinery, furnitures and fittings.

Variable cost are cost of production that changes with production process such as cost of labor, cost of raw materials.

C(x) = 20(4x) + 500

C(x) represent the total cost

20(4x) represent the variable cost

500 represent the fixed cost

From the variable cost 20(4x)

20 represent the cost per variable inputs

At Appalachian State University it is known that 52% of undergraduates are female. If a sample of 150 undergraduate students was
In-s [12.5K]

Answer:

a. The sampling distribution will be approximately normal.

d. The mean of the sampling distribution will be close to 52%

g. The standard deviation of the sampling distribution will be 0.0408

Step-by-step explanation:

For this problem the sample size is large enough (n>30), and then the sampling distribution \hat p would be approximately normal. The mean of the sampling distributions is given by p=0.52

The expected value for the sampling distribution would be 0.52 since E(\hat p) = p

And for the standard deviation we know that is given by:

Sd= \sqrt{\frac{p (1-p)}{n}}=\sqrt{\frac{0.52(1-0.52)}{150}}=0.0408

So the correct answers on this case are:

a. The sampling distribution will be approximately normal.

d. The mean of the sampling distribution will be close to 52%

g. The standard deviation of the sampling distribution will be 0.0408

Write the inverse of f(x)=x2+4
Over [174]
F(x) = x² + 4
y = x² + 4

First, I reverse the equation to be
x² + 4 = y

Second, we need only x to remain on the left side and we need to move the others to the right side
x² + 4 = y
x² = y - 4
x = √(y - 4)

Last, change into invers function
f⁻¹(x) = √(x - 4)

Factor of x^3-x^2-24x-36
Basile [38]
The trial and error method is used to find an initial factor:
If we let f(x) = x³ - x² - 24x - 36 and all we have to do is sub' in values of x until
f(x) = 0, we can use this to find an initial factor by the factor theorem:
f(1) = (1)³ - (1)² - 24(1) - 36 = -60
f(2) = (2)³ - (2)² - 24(2) - 36 = -80
f(5) = (5)³ - (5)² - 24(5) - 36 = -56
*** f(6) = (6)³ - (6)² - 24(6) - 36 = 0 ***

f(6) = 0 so (x - 6) is a factor of f(x).
This means that: f(x) = x³ - x² - 24x - 36 = (x - 6)(ax² + bx + c).
To find a,b and c, use long division (or inspection) to divide x³ - x² - 24x - 36 by x - 6.
The other 2 factors of f(x) can then be found by factorizing the
ax² + bx + c quadratic the way you would with any other quadratic (i.e. by quadratic formula, CTS or inspection).
