Answer:

The answer is below

Explanation:

Probability distribution are statistical function that shows all the possible outcomes of a random variable within a given range of values.

a) The mean (\bar x) of a probability distribution of a discrete random variable is:

\bar x=\Sigma\ [xP(x)] = (0 * 0.8) + (1 * 0.15) + (2 * 0.04) + (3 * 0.01) = 0.26

b) The standard deviation (σ) of a probability distribution of a discrete random variable is:

\sigma=\sqrt{ \Sigma\ [(x-\bar x)^2*P(x)]}\\\\\sigma=\sqrt{(0-0.26)^2*0.8+(1-0.26)^2*0.15+(2-0.26)^2*0.04+(3-0.26)^2*0.01} \\\\\sigma=0.577

When originally purchased, a vehicle costing $23,040 had an estimated useful life of 8 years and an estimated salvage value of $
Novosadov [1.4K]

Answer:

$5,360

(not given in the options)

Explanation:

Depreciation is the systematic allocation of cost to an asset based on estimates. It is given as

Depreciation = (cost - salvage value)/useful life

When originally purchased, a vehicle costing $23,040 had an estimated useful life of 8 years and an estimated salvage value of $1,600

Annual depreciation = ($23,040 - $1,600)/8

= $2,680

After 4 years

Accumulated depreciation = 4 × $2,680

= $10,720

The net book value then

= $23,040 - $10,720

= $12,320  

Since the asset's total estimated useful life was revised from 8 years to 6 years and there was no change in the estimated salvage value

New depreciation = ($12,320  - $1,600)/2

= $5,360

The depreciation expense in year 5 equals $5,360

Bill currently uses his entire budget to purchase 5 cans of Pepsi and 3 hamburgers per week. The price of Pepsi is​ $1 per​ can,
FinnZ [79.3K]

Answer:

Option (B) is correct.

Explanation:

The utility maximization point for a consumer is as follows:

\frac{MU_x}{P_x}=\frac{MU_y}{P_y}

It is given that,

price of Pepsi(x) =​ $1 per can

price of a hamburger(y) =​ $2

Marginal utility from Pepsi =​ 4

Marginal utility from hamburgers = 6

Hence,

\frac{4}{1}>\frac{6}{2}

4 > 3

Therefore, it can be seen that the consumer's utility is not maximized at this point.

Law of diminishing marginal utility states that as the consumer consumes more and more quantity of goods then as a result the utility obtained from the consumption goes on diminishing.

So, there is a need to increase the quantity of Pepsi consumed and reducing the quantity of hamburgers consumed.

What can happen when the united states government plays a direct role in the economy? Select all that apply.
solniwko [45]

The answer is (A) It competes with private business and (C) It acts as an employer.

In a way, the United States government already has direct role in the economy right now, since it has businesses such as the US Postal Service – which competes with private businesses that provide logistics support for customers, such as FedEx. Since it has businesses, the government automatically also plays the role of an employer.
