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 XXX 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:

μy = $6.56 ; σy = 2.77

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the data :

Mean μx= $8.56

Standard Deviation σx ≈ 2.77

Profit, Y on pizza with current promo :

Price off on pizza = $2

Y = x - 2

μx = E(x) = $8.56

μy = μ(x - 2)

μy = μx - $2

μy = $8.56 - $2

μy = $6.56

For the standard deviation of y

σx ≈ 2.77

σy = σ(x - 2)

σy = σx - 2

Constants are treated as 0 for standard deviation

σy = 2.77

Which of the following best describes the equation below?
Reika [66]
4(x + 9) + 5x = 9x - 36

=> 4x + 36 + 5x = 9x - 36

=> 9x + 36 = 9x - 36

=> 9x - 9x = -36 - 36

=> 0 = -72

You can see that the equation doesn't hold true.

So there is no solution for this equation.

Answer is C. no real solutions

Hey, I need some help in math I put the pic down below
EastWind [94]

For this case we have that by definition, the equation of a line in the slope-intersection form is given by:

y = mx + b

Where:

m: It's the slope

b: It is the cutoff point with the y axis

We find the slope with the given points:

m = \frac {y2-y1} {x2-x1} = \frac {401-450} {14-7} = \frac {-49} {7} = - 7

Thus, the line is given by:

y = -7x + b

We substitute a point to find "b":

450 = -7 (7) + b\\450 = -49 + b\\450 + 49 = b\\b = 499

Finally, the equation is:

y = -7x + 499

Answer:

y = -7x + 499
