Answer:
a) P(c) = xc² + yc + z, and P(.15) = $124, P(.05) = 0, P(.17) = 0. Thus:
(#1) .0225x + .15y + z = 124
(#2) .0025x + .05y + z = 0
(#3) .0289x + .17y + z = 0
Subtracting #2 from #3: (#4) .0264x + .12y = 0
Subtracting #2 from #3: (#5) .02x + .1y = 124
Subtracting 1.2×#5 from #4: .0024x = -148.8 → x= -62000
Using this value of x in #5: -1240 + .1y = 124 → y = 13640
Using x and y in #1: -1395 + 2046 + z = 124 → z = -527
P(c) = -62000c² + 13640c - 527
b) To find the maximum of P(c), find a such that P'(a) = 0
-124000c + 13640 = 0
c = .11
At this price, his profit would be $223.20
Answer:
14x + 4
Step-by-step explanation:
3(4x+2) + 2(x-1)
Distribute by multiplying into the bracket
=12x + 6 + 2x - 2
Group like terms by adding and subtracting
= 14x + 4
Every triangle has an angle measure of 180 degrees.
so 42+20+x (where x is the measure of the third angle)=180
Combine like terms.
62+x=180
Subtract 62 from both sides
x=118.
Answer:
52.74% probability that a randomly selected airfare between these two cities will be between $325 and $425
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 question, we have that:

What is the probability that a randomly selected airfare between these two cities will be between $325 and $425?
This is the pvalue of Z when X = 425 subtracted by the pvalue of Z when X = 325. So
X = 425



has a pvalue of 0.7088
X = 325



has a pvalue of 0.1814
0.7088 - 0.1814 = 0.5274
52.74% probability that a randomly selected airfare between these two cities will be between $325 and $425

You didn't provide the "given point", but I assume you're capable of plugging it in.
