A pizza shop sells three sizes of pizza, and they track how often each size gets ordered along with how much they profit from ea

ch size. Let X represent the shop's profit on a randomly selected pizza. Here's the probability distribution of X along with summary statistics:
Small Medium Large
X = profit ($) 4 8 12
P(X) 0.18 0.50 0.32
Mean: μX = $8.56
Standard deviation: σx =$2.77
The company is going to run a promotion where customers get $2 off any size pizza. Assume that the promotion will not change the probability that corresponds to each size. Let Y represent their profit on a randomly selected pizza with this promotion. What are the mean and standard deviation of Y?

Answer:

The mean and standard deviation of Y is $6.56 and $2.77 respectively.

Step-by-step explanation:

Consider the provided information.

Let Y represent their profit on a randomly selected pizza with this promotion.

The company is going to run a promotion where customers get $2 off any size pizza.

Therefore, Y=\text{Profit}-\$2

Y=X-\$2

So the mean will be reduced by 2.

\mu_Y=\mu_X-\$2

\mu_Y =\$ 8.56 - \$2

\mu_Y =\$6.56

If we add or subtract any constant number from a given distribution, then the mean is changed by the same number(i.e constant number) but the standard deviation will remain the same.

Therefore \sigma_Y=\sigma_X=2.77

Hence, the mean and standard deviation of Y is $6.56 and $2.77 respectively.

The equation cos−1 = x can be used to determine the measure of angle BAC.
Sergio [31]

we know that

in the right triangle ABC

the value of cosine of angle x is equal to

cos(x)=\frac{AC}{AB}

we have

AC=3.4\ cm\\AB=10\ cm

substitute the values

cos(x)=\frac{3.4}{10}=0.34

Find the measure of angle x

x=cos(x)^{-1} =arc\ cos(0.34)=70.12\°

Round to the nearest whole degree

x=70\°

therefore

<u>the answer is</u>

70\°
