inessss [21]3 years ago
7 0

Answer:

Equations made up of multiple variables like formulas.

Step-by-step explanation:

Similar to how y = mx+b has many letters in it but we can input known values to solve for the values that we want.

Plz do this and show all the work. Use factoring
Anika [276]
Answer:
x1=-1, x2=4/5

Step by step explanation:
5x^2 - 4 + x = 0
Use the commutative property to reorder the terms:
5x^2+x-4=0
Write x as a difference:
5x^2+5x-4x-4=0
Factor out 5x from the expression:
5xx(x-1)-4x - 4=0
Factor out -4 from the expression:
5xx(x+1) - 4 (x-1)=0
Factor out x+1 from the expression:
(x-1) x (5x-4) =0
When the product of factors equal 0 at least one factor is 0
X + 1 = 0
5x - 4 = 0
Solve the equation:
The equation has two solutions
X1=-1, x2 = 4/5

At a certain coffee shop, all the customers buy a cup of coffee and some also buy a doughnut. The shop owner believes that the n
wolverine [178]

Answer:

(1) The probability that the shop owner sells over 2000 cups of coffee in a week is 0.2514.

(2) The shop owner has no reasonable chance to expect earning a profit more than $300.

(3) The probability that the shop owner will sell a doughnut to more than half of his coffee customers is 0.2611.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let <em>X</em> = number of cups of coffee sold and <em>Y</em> = number of donuts sold.

The random variable <em>X</em> follows a Normal distribution with parameters <em>μ</em> = 320 and <em>σ </em>= 20.

The random variable <em>Y</em> follows a Normal distribution with parameters <em>μ</em> = 150 and <em>σ </em>= 12.

The shop owner opens the shop 6 days a week.

(1)

Compute the probability that the shop owner sells over 2000 cups of coffee in a week as follows:

P(X>2000)=P(\frac{X-\mu}{\sigma}>\frac{2000-(6\times320)}{6\times20})\\=P(Z>0.67)\\=1-P(Z

Thus, the probability that the shop owner sells over 2000 cups of coffee in a week is 0.2514.

(2)

The equation representing the profit earned on selling 1 cup of coffee and 1 doughnut in a day is:

P = 0.5<em>X</em> + 0.4<em>Y</em>

Compute the probability that the shop owner earns more than $300 as profit as follows:

P(Profit>300)=P(\frac{Profit-\mu}{\sigma}>\frac{300-((0.5\times320)+(0.4\times150))}{\sqrt{0.5^{2}(20)^{2}+0.4^{2}(12)^{2}}})\\=P(Z>7.21)\\\approx0

The probability of earning a profit more then $300 is approximately 0.

Thus, the shop owner has no reasonable chance to expect earning a profit more than $300.

(3)

The expression representing the statement "he'll sell a doughnut to more than half of his coffee customers" is:

<em>Y</em> > 0.5<em>X</em>

<em>Y</em> - 0.5<em>X</em> > 0

Compute the probability of the event (<em>Y</em> - 0.5<em>X</em> > 0) as follows:

P(Y - 0.5X > 0)=P(\frac{(Y - 0.5X) -\mu}{\sigma}>\frac{0-(150-(0.5\times320}{\sqrt{12^{2}+0.5^{2}20^{2}}})\\=P(Z>0.64)\\=1-P(Z

Thus, the probability that the shop owner will sell a doughnut to more than half of his coffee customers is 0.2611.
