Answer:
The correct option is;
C. Quadratic
Step-by-step explanation:
The given information are;
The quantity of corn Farmer Joe has to sell = 1,000 bushels
The present market price for corn = $5.00 a bushel
The amount by which he expects the market price to rise per week =$0.15
The number of bushels lost to spoilage per week = 10
Therefore, we have;
The value of the corn = Amount of corn left × Price of corn
The price of the corn per bushel with time = 5 + 0.15×t
The amount of corn left = 1000 - 10×t
Where;
t = Time in minutes
Therefore, the total value of corn = (1000 - 10×t)×(5 + 0.15×t) = -1.5·t²+100·t+5000 which is a quadratic model.
Therefore, the correct option is a quadratic model.
Answer:
42.22% probability that the weight is between 31 and 35 pounds
Step-by-step explanation:
Problems of normally distributed samples are solved using the z-score formula.
In a set with mean 
and standard deviation 
, the zscore of a measure X is given by:
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 pvalue, we get the probability that the value of the measure is greater than X.
In this problem, we have that:
What is the probability that the weight is between 31 and 35 pounds
This is the pvalue of Z when X = 35 subtracted by the pvalue of Z when X = 31. So
X = 35
has a pvalue of 0.5557
X = 31
has a pvalue of 0.1335
0.5557 - 0.1335 = 0.4222
42.22% probability that the weight is between 31 and 35 pounds
Answer: x = 37.8
Step-by-step explanation: We start with triangle ABC with two sides given as 15 and 18. We shall make angle C the reference angle and thereby calculate the third side, line BC.
Since we have the opposite side as 15, and the adjacent side (which lies between the reference angle and the right angle) as 18, we can use the tangent of the angle C
Tan C = Opp/Adj
Tan C = 15/18
Tan C = 0.8333
From our table of values/use of the calculator
Tan C = 39.8
Angle C in triangle ACB = Angle C in triangle ECD (Opposite angles are equal).
That takes us to triangle ECD, since the reference angle is known (39.8) and the opposite side is also given (31.5), we can now calculate the adjacent which is side x.
Tan C = Opp/Adj
Tan 39.8 = 31.5/x
when you cross multiply, x moves to the left hand side, while Tan 39.8 moves to the right hand side
x = 31.5/Tan 39.8
x = 31.5/0.8333
<u>x = 37.8</u>
