Answer:

<h3>C. 800</h3>

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the equation used to calculate the amount of profit, p, made from selling n candy bars expressed as  p = 1.50n – 500

To find the number of candies sold for $700, we are going to substitute p = $700 into the given expression and find n as shown;

700 =  1.50n - 500

Add 500 to both sides

700+500 = 1.50n-500+500

1200 = 1.50n

Divide both sides by 1.50

1200/1.50 = 1.50n/1.50

800 = n

Rearrange

n = 800

Hence 800 candy bars must be sold to make $700 profit

A sample of size 126 will be drawn from a population with mean 26 and standard deviation 3. Use the TI-84 calculator.
GenaCL600 [577]

Answer:

1. The probability that x will be more than 25 is 0.6305.

2. The 55th percentile is 26.38.

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.

Mean 26 and standard deviation 3.

This means that \mu = 26, \sigma = 3

1 Find the probability that x will be more than 25.

This is 1 subtracted by the p-value of Z when X = 25. So

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

Z = \frac{25 - 26}{3}

Z = -0.333

Z = -0.333 has a p-value of 0.3695.

1 - 0.3695 = 0.6305.

The probability that x will be more than 25 is 0.6305.

2 Find the 55th percentile of x.

This is X when Z has a p-value of 0.55, so X when Z = 0.125.

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

0.125 = \frac{X - 26}{3}

X - 26 = 0.125*3

Z = 26.38

The 55th percentile is 26.38.

A fluid moves through a tube of length 1 meter and radius r=0.006±0.00025 meters under a pressure p=4⋅105±2000 pascals, at a rat
iris [78.8K]

Answer:

Maximum error for viscosity is 17.14%

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that everything is changing with respect to the time, "r" is changing with respect to the time, and also "p" just "v" will not change with the time according to the information given, so we can find the implicit derivative with respect to the time, and since

n = (\frac{\pi}{8}) (\frac{pr^4}{v})\\

The implicit derivative with respect to the time would be

\frac{dn}{dt}  = \frac{\pi}{8} ( \frac{r^4}{v} \frac{dp}{dt}  + \frac{4pr^3}{v}\frac{dr}{dt} )

If we multiply everything by    dt   we get  

dn  = \frac{\pi}{8} ( \frac{r^4}{v} dp  + \frac{4pr^3}{v}  dr})

Remember that  the error is given by   \frac{dn}{n}   therefore doing some algebra we get that

\frac{dn}{n}  =    4 \frac{dr}{r}  +  \frac{dp}{p}

Since,    r = 0.006   ,   dr = 0.00025 ,  p = 4*105   ,   dp = 2000  we get that

\frac{dn}{n} = 0.1714

Which means that  the maximum error for viscosity is 17.14%.

Here is how we get the answer....
First, replace f(x) with y . ...
Replace every x with a y and replace every y with an x .
Solve the equation from Step 2 for y . ...
Replace y with f−1(x) f − 1 ( x ) . ...
Verify your work by checking that (f∘f−1)(x)=x ( f ∘ f − 1 ) ( x ) = x and (f−1∘f)(x)=x ( f − 1 ∘ f ) ( x ) = x are both true.
