Parker has a part-time job picking apples. Let the random variable A represent the number of baskets of apples picked each day.

The distribution of A has mean 4.5 baskets and standard deviation 1.3 baskets. Parker is paid $65 per day plus $5 per basket. What are the mean μ and standard deviation σ of Parker’s daily pay?
A=μ=$87.50 and σ=$71.50



B=μ=$87.50 and σ=$6.50



C=μ=$22.50 and σ=$6.50



D=μ=$87.50 and σ=$1.30



E=μ=$22.50 and σ=$71.50

Answer:

<u>The correct answer is B. μ = US$87.50 and σ = US$6.50</u>

Step-by-step explanation:

1. Let's review the information given to us to answer the question correctly:

Number of baskets of apples picked each day by Parker = A

Mean of A = 4.5 baskets

Standard deviation = 1.3 baskets

Daily payment received by Parker = US$ 65 + US$ 5 per basket

2. What are the mean μ and standard deviation σ of Parker’s daily pay?

Let's find out the mean and standard deviation of Parker's daily pay:

Daily payment received by Parker = US$ 65 + US$ 5 per basket

Daily payment mean received by Parker = 65 + 5 * 4.5

Daily payment mean received by Parker = 87.5

Standard deviation in US$ = 1.3 * 5

Standard deviation in US$ = 6.5

<u>The correct answer is B. μ = US$87.50 and σ = US$6.50</u>

-2(t + 4 2/3) = 9 1/2
kiruha [24]
So you times the -2 with the bits inside the bracket so:
-2 x t= -2t
-2 x 4 2/3 = -9 1/3
So then that makes:
-2t - 9 1/3= 9 1/2
So to get what t equals you have to get it by itself so you add the -9 1/3 to both sides of the equation to get:
-2t=18 5/6
So then you divide by -2 on both sides to get
t=-9 5/12
Which is the answer. :-D

Geoff and Max are college roommates. Geoff can clean their apartment in 2.5 hours and Max can clean their apartment in 3.25 hour
Anestetic [448]

Answer: 1.41 hours

<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>

Geoff: 2.5 hours = 1 job

Max: 3.25 hours = 1 job

Together: \frac{x}{2.5} + \frac{x}{3.25} = 1 job

            ⇒ (3.25)(2.5)\frac{x}{2.5} + (3.25)(2.5)\frac{x}{3.25} = (3.25)(2.5)1

            ⇒ 3.25x + 2.5x = 8.125

            ⇒             5.75x = 8.125

                           <u>÷5.75  </u>  <u> ÷5.75 </u>

                                   x = 1.413
