11. Kevin is comparing job offers at two stores.

Mathematics
1 answer:
hoa [83]3 years ago
8 0

Answer:

Kevin's weekly sales will have to be worth more than $4000 in order for Dollar Deal to pay more.

Step-by-step explanation:

Dollar Deal offers $8/h plus 10% commission.

If he spends x hours, then offer after x hours and s amount from sales is;

8x + 10%s

This can be rewritten as; 8x + 0.1s

Now, Great Discounts offers $18/h with no commission.

Thus after 8 hours for 5 days, total number of hours = 40 hours.

Thus, great discounts offer = 18 × 40 = $720

Now, dollar deal will offer; 8(40) + 0.1s = 320 + 0.1s

Thus, for dollar deal to pay more weekly, then;

320 + 0.1s > 720

0.1s > 720 - 320

0.1s > 400

s > 400/0.1

s > 4000

Determine the t critical value(s) that will capture the desired t-curve area in each of the following cases: a. Central area 5 .
Flauer [41]

Answer:

a) "=T.INV(0.025,10)" and "=T.INV(1-0.025,10)"

And we got t_{\alpha/2}=-2.228 , t_{1-\alpha/2}=2.228

b)  "=T.INV(0.025,20)" and "=T.INV(1-0.025,20)"

And we got t_{\alpha/2}=-2.086 , t_{1-\alpha/2}=2.086

c) "=T.INV(0.005,20)" and "=T.INV(1-0.005,20)"

And we got t_{\alpha/2}=-2.845 , t_{1-\alpha/2}=2.845

d) "=T.INV(0.005,50)" and "=T.INV(1-0.005,50)"

And we got t_{\alpha/2}=-2.678 , t_{1-\alpha/2}=2.678

e) "=T.INV(1-0.01,25)"

And we got t_{\alpha}= 2.485

f) "=T.INV(0.025,5)"

And we got t_{\alpha}= -2.571

Step-by-step explanation:

Previous concepts

The t distribution (Student’s t-distribution) is a "probability distribution that is used to estimate population parameters when the sample size is small (n<30) or when the population variance is unknown".

The shape of the t distribution is determined by its degrees of freedom and when the degrees of freedom increase the t distirbution becomes a normal distribution approximately.  

The degrees of freedom represent "the number of independent observations in a set of data. For example if we estimate a mean score from a single sample, the number of independent observations would be equal to the sample size minus one."

Solution to the problem

We will use excel in order to find the critical values for this case

Determine the t critical value(s) that will capture the desired t-curve area in each of the following cases:

a. Central area =.95, df = 10

For this case we want 0.95 of the are in the middle so then we have 1-0.95 = 0.05 of the area on the tails. And on each tail we will have \alpha/2=0.025.

We can use the following excel codes:

"=T.INV(0.025,10)" and "=T.INV(1-0.025,10)"

And we got t_{\alpha/2}=-2.228 , t_{1-\alpha/2}=2.228

b. Central area =.95, df = 20

For this case we want 0.95 of the are in the middle so then we have 1-0.95 = 0.05 of the area on the tails. And on each tail we will have \alpha/2=0.025.

We can use the following excel codes:

"=T.INV(0.025,20)" and "=T.INV(1-0.025,20)"

And we got t_{\alpha/2}=-2.086 , t_{1-\alpha/2}=2.086

c. Central area =.99, df = 20

 For this case we want 0.99 of the are in the middle so then we have 1-0.99 = 0.01 of the area on the tails. And on each tail we will have \alpha/2=0.005.

We can use the following excel codes:

"=T.INV(0.005,20)" and "=T.INV(1-0.005,20)"

And we got t_{\alpha/2}=-2.845 , t_{1-\alpha/2}=2.845

d. Central area =.99, df = 50

  For this case we want 0.99 of the are in the middle so then we have 1-0.99 = 0.01 of the area on the tails. And on each tail we will have \alpha/2=0.005.

We can use the following excel codes:

"=T.INV(0.005,50)" and "=T.INV(1-0.005,50)"

And we got t_{\alpha/2}=-2.678 , t_{1-\alpha/2}=2.678

e. Upper-tail area =.01, df = 25

For this case we need on the right tail 0.01 of the area and on the left tail we will have 1-0.01 = 0.99 , that means \alpha =0.01

We can use the following excel code:

"=T.INV(1-0.01,25)"

And we got t_{\alpha}= 2.485

f. Lower-tail area =.025, df = 5

For this case we need on the left tail 0.025 of the area and on the right tail we will have 1-0.025 = 0.975 , that means \alpha =0.025

We can use the following excel code:

"=T.INV(0.025,5)"

And we got t_{\alpha}= -2.571

-3|x|+2x-1 if x=-5<br><br> plz help
Savatey [412]

Answer:

 f(x) = -3|x| + 2x - 1

f(-5) = -3|-5| + 2*(-5) - 1

      = -3*5 + 2*(-5) - 1

      = -15 - 10 - 1

      = -26

Hope this helps!
