What is X + 96 = 96 + X

464 students will score between 48 and 75. Using the z-distribution, we measure how many standard deviations each score is from the mean, then find the p-value associated with each score to find the proportion, and from the proportion, we find how many out of 1000.

Step-by-step explanation:

Normal Probability Distribution:

Problems of normal distributions can be solved using the z-score formula.

In a set with mean $\mu$ and standard deviation $\sigma$ , the z-score of a measure X is given by:

$Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}$

The Z-score measures how many standard deviations the measure is from the mean. After finding the Z-score, we look at the z-score table and find the p-value associated with this z-score. This p-value is the probability that the value of the measure is smaller than X, that is, the percentile of X. Subtracting 1 by the p-value, we get the probability that the value of the measure is greater than X.

It assumes the scores are normally distributed with a mean score of 75 and a standard deviation of 15.

This means that $\mu = 75, \sigma = 15$

How many students will score between 48 and 75?

First we find the proportion, which is the pvalue of Z when X = 75 subtracted by the pvalue of Z when X = 48. So

X = 75

$Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}$

$Z = \frac{75 - 75}{15}$

$Z = 0$

$Z = 0$ has a p-value of 0.5

X = 48

$Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}$

$Z = \frac{48 - 75}{15}$

$Z = -1.8$

$Z = -1.8$ has a p-value of 0.0359

1 - 0.0359 = 0.4641

Out of 1000:

0.4641*1000 = 464

464 students will score between 48 and 75. Using the z-distribution, we measure how many standard deviations each score is from the mean, then find the p-value associated with each score to find the proportion, and from the proportion, we find how many out of 1000.

Southern Oil Company produces two grades of gasoline: regular and premium. The profit contributions are $0.30 per gallon for reg

Contact [7]

Answer:

a) MAX--> PC (R,P) = 0,3R+ 0,5P

b) Optimal solution: 40.000 units of R and 10.000 of PC = $17.000

c) Slack variables: S3=1000, is the unattended demand of P, the others are 0, that means the restrictions are at the limit.

d) Binding Constaints:

1. 0.3 R+0.6 P ≤ 18.000

2. R+P ≤ 50.000

3. P ≤ 20.000

4. R ≥ 0

5. P ≥ 0

Step-by-step explanation:

I will solve it using the graphic method:

First, we have to define the variables:

R : Regular Gasoline

P: Premium Gasoline

We also call:

PC: Profit contributions

A: Grade A crude oil

• R--> PC: $0,3 --> 0,3 A

• P--> PC: $0,5 --> 0,6 A

So the ecuation to maximize is:

MAX--> PC (R,P) = 0,3R+ 0,5P

The restrictions would be:

1. 18.000 A availabe (R=0,3 A ; P 0,6 A)

2. 50.000 capacity

3. Demand of P: No more than 20.000

4. Both P and R 0 or more.

Translated to formulas:

Answer d)

1. 0.3 R+0.6 P ≤ 18.000

2. R+P ≤ 50.000

3. P ≤ 20.000

4. R ≥ 0

5. P ≥ 0

To know the optimal solution it is better to graph all the restrictions, once you have the graphic, the theory says that the solution is on one of the vertices.

So we define the vertices: (you can see on the graphic, or calculate them with the intersection of the ecuations)

V:(R;P)

• V1: (0;0)

• V2: (0; 20.000)

• V3: (20.000;20.000)

• V4: (40.000; 10.000)

• V5:(50.000;0)

We check each one in the profit ecuation:

MAX--> PC (R,P) = 0,3R+ 0,5P

• V1: 0

• V2: 10.000

• V3: 16.000

• V4: 17.000

• V5: 15.000

As we can see, the optimal solution is

V4: 40.000 units of regular and 10.000 of premium.

To have the slack variables you have to check in each restriction how much you have to add (or substract) to get to de exact (=) result.

The square ABCD is divided into eight equal parts. The shaded area is 25 cm². What is the area of the square ABCD

Akimi4 [234]

Answer:

I think the answer is 200cm^2

Step-by-step explanation:

since the square is divided into eight equal parts

and one shaded part is =25cm^2

multiply the area of the shaded part by the number of equal parts

= 25cm^2 ×8

= 200cm^2
