9514 1404 393

Answer:

  a) 98

  b) directly

  c) k = 14 pages per hour

Step-by-step explanation:

a) In order to answer the first question, we must assume that the number of pages varies directly with the amount of time. Further, we must find the constant of variation:

  p = kt

  56 = k(4)

  k = 56/4 = 14 . . . . pages per hour

Then in 7 hours, the student will read ...

  p = 14(7) = 98 . . . pages

__

b) As we said in part (a), the variation is direct.

__

c) As we found in part (a), the constant of variation is 14 pages per hour.

zloy xaker [14]

Answer:

$190.50

Step-by-step explanation:

Expected value is the sum of each possible income multiplied by its probability.

There's a 5% chance that the vendor makes $200 and loses $190 (net gain of $10).

There's a 95% chance that the vendor makes $200 and loses $0 (net gain of $200).

So the expected value is:

Exp(RS) = $10 × 0.05 + $200 × 0.95

Exp(RS) = $190.50
