Answer:

  • A. $66.33
  • B. $4300

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Given function:</u>

  • p(d)= -5d² + 300d - 200
<h3>Part A</h3>

<u>p(d) = 2300, find d:</u>

  • 2300 = -5d² + 300d - 200
  • 5d² - 300d + 200 - 2300 = 0
  • 5d² - 300d - 2100 = 0
  • d² - 60d - 420 = 0
  • d²- 2*30d + 900 = 1320
  • (d - 30)² = 1320
  • d- 30 = √1320
  • d = 30 + 36.33
  • d = 66.33
<h3>Part B</h3>

<u>Maximum point of the function is obtained at vertex, which is (x = -b/2a):</u>

  • d = - 300/-10 = 30

<u>The maximum profit is:</u>

  • p(30) = -5(30)² + 300(30) - 200 = 4300

The pulse rates of 174 randomly selected adult males vary from a low of 39 bpm to a high of 111 bpm. Find the minimum sample siz
Daniel [21]

Answer:

a. The sample size is approximately 97 adults

Step-by-step explanation:

The given parameters are;

The number of adults surveyed, n = 174

The lowest value of the pulse rate = 39 bpm

The highest value of the pulse rate = 111 bpm

The level of confidence used for determining the sample size = 90%

The given sample mean = 3 pm of the population mean

a. The range rule of thumb states that the standard deviation is approximately one quarter (1/4) of the range

The range = 111 bpm - 39 bpm = 72 bpm

Therefore, the standard deviation, σ = 72 bpm/4 = 18 bpm

The sample size, 'N', is given as follows;

N = \dfrac{z^2 \cdot p \cdot q}{e^2}

Where;

N = The sample size

z = The confidence level, 90% (z-score at 90% = 1.645)

p·q = σ² = 18² = 324

e² = 3² = 9

N = \dfrac{1.645^2  \times 324}{3^2} = 97.4169

Therefore the appropriate sample size, N ≈ 97 adults.
