A vending machine operator has determined that the number of candy bars sold per week by a certain machine is a random variable

with mean 125 and standard deviation 7. His profit on each bar sold is $0.25, and it costs him $2.00 per day to maintain the machine and rent the space for it. What is the mean for Y

Answer:

The answer is below

Step-by-step explanation:

Let Y represent the profit per day, and x represent the number of bar sold per day. Hence:

Y = 0.25x - 2

a) The mean is given as:

\mu_y=E(Y)=E(0.25X-2) = 0.25E(X)-2\\\\But\ E(X)=mean\ of\ machine=125. Hence:\\\\E(Y)=0.25(125)-2=29.25\\\\E(Y)=\$29.25

b) The standard deviation of y is:

\sigma_y=var(0.25X-2)\\\\\sigma_y=0.25\sigma(X)\\\\but\ \sigma_X=7,hence:\\\\\sigma_y=0.25(7)=1.75\\\\\sigma_y=\$1.75

Which of the following equations is the result of completing the square on x^2 - 6x - 9 = 0?
lina2011 [118]
X² - 6x - 9 = 0
x² - 3x - 3x - 9 = 0
x (x-3) -3(x + 3) = 0
(x - 3)² = 0

In short, Your Answer would be Option A

Hope this helps!

Answer:

x || t,         [Given]  

m\angle 16 = m\angle 7     [Given]                      ......[1]

Transversal defined as a line that cuts across two or more Parallel lines.

When two parallel lines are cut by a transversal, then the pairs of corresponding angles are equal in measure.

m\angle 16 = m\angle 1   [Corresponding Angle theorem]     ......[2]

Substitute value [1] in [2] we have;

m\angle 7 =m\angle 1   [Substitution Property]

When two lines are cut by a transversal and the alternate exterior angles are equal in measure, then the lines are parallel.

k || w                     [ By Alternative Exterior Angle Theorem]       Hence proved!

In △ E F G , △EFG, G E ‾ ≅ F G ‾ GE ≅ FG and m ∠ F = 5 5 ∘ . m∠F=55 ∘ . Find m ∠ E . m∠E.
Bingel [31]

Answer: m∠E = 55°

Step-by-step explanation: If a triangle has two equal sides, it is called Isosceles. Another characteristics of this type of triangle is that the angles opposite the equal sides are also congruent.

Triangle ΔEFG has two sides with approximately the same length:

\overline{GE} ≈ \overline{FG}

So, it is an isosceles.

Therefore the opposite angles are m∠E and m∠F.

m∠E = m∠F

m∠E = 55°

Angle at vertex E is 55°.
