Answer:

1.649 approximately 2

Step-by-step explanation:

S.d = standard deviation = 0.5

Time taken = lead time = 2 weeks

Mean = demand for week = 5 boxes

We are required to find the safety stock to maintain at 99% service level.

At 99% level, the Z value is equal to 2.326.

Therefore,

Safety stock = z × s.d × √Lt

= 2.326 × 0.5 x √2

= 1.649

Which is approximately 2.

An equation that represents the path of a diver jumping off a diving board is y = –7x2 + 5x + 16. Graph this function from the p
ANTONII [103]

Answer:

See explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

An equation that represents the path of a diver jumping off a diving board is

y = -7x^2 + 5x + 16.

The diver jumped to the water when x = 0.

Then

y=-7\cdot 0^2+5\cdot 0+16=16

The jumper reached the water when y = 0, then

-7x^2+5x+16=0\\ \\D=5^2-4\cdot (-7)\cdot 16=25+448=473\\ \\x_{1,2}=\dfrac{-5\pm\sqrt{473}}{-14}

So, point where the  jumper reached the water is

\left(\dfrac{5+\sqrt{473}}{14},0\right)\approx (1.93,0)
