A Wendy’s fast-food restaurant sells hamburgers and chicken sandwiches. On a typical weekday, the demand for hamburgers is norma

lly distributed with a mean of 450 and standard deviation of 80 and the demand for chicken sandwiches is normally distributed with a mean of 120 and standard deviation of 30. How many hamburgers must the restaurant stock to be 99% sure of not running out on a given day?

Our given: Hamburgers sold daily are normally distributed and have a mean of 450 and standard deviation of 80 which is denoted by X ~ N (450,80)

What we do not know: How many hamburgers must the restaurant stock so that they won't run out. So let that be X:
Let x: the number of required hamburgers the restaurant needs

Solution:
So our X should be greater than 0.99

P(X>0.99) = 0.99 means
P(Z>(X-450) divided by 80) > 0.99

From the normal distribution table, .99 Z score is = 2.3263

solve for X by:

2.3263 = (X-450) divided by 80
X-450= 80*2.3263 = 186.1
X= 450+186.1=636.1

Answer: 636 hamburgers should be stocked.

Tickets for a drumline competition cost $5 at the gate and $3 in advance. One hundred more tickets were sold in advance than at
irina [24]

Answer:

The number of tickets sold at the gate is G = 211.25

The number of tickets sold in advance is  A = 311.25

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question we are told that

 The cost of a tickets at the gate is a =  \$ 5  

  The cost of a ticket in advance is  b =  \$ 3

Let the number of ticket sold in the gate be G

Let the number of ticket sold in advance  be   A

From the question we are told that

  One hundred more tickets were sold in advance than at the gate and this can be mathematically represented as

       G  +  100 =  A

From the question we are told that

  The total revenue from ticket sales was $1990  and this can be mathematically represented as

    5 G  +  3A  =  1990

substituting for  A in the equation above

    5 G  +  3[G  +  100]=  1990    

    5 G  +  3G  +  300=  1990    

    8G  +  300=  1990  

    8G  =  1690

=>  G = 211.25

Substituting this for G in the above equation

     5 [211.25]  +  3A  =  1990

=>    3A  =  1990 - 1056.25

=>    A = 311.25

in a right triangle one leg measure 4 inches and the other leg measures 6 inches what is the length of the hypotenuse in inches
navik [9.2K]
Use Pythagoras (x^2 + y^2 = r^2) Simplified: leg squared plus leg squared equals hypotenuse squared. Therefore 4^2 + 6^2 = h^2 16+36=h^2 h^2 = 52 H= root of 52=7,21 inches
