Alex17521 [72]

Answer:

B. no, it is not low enough

A. no, it is not low enough

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that Air-USA has a policy of booking as many as 24 persons on an airplane that can seat only 22.

Prob for  a random person booked arrive for flight = 0.86

No of persons who books and arrive for flight, X is binomial, since there are two outcomes and each person is independent of the other

The probability that if Air-USA books 24 persons, not enough seats will be available

= P(X=23)+P(x=24)

= 0.1315

B. no, it is not low enough

-------------------------------

The prob we got is >10% also

A. no, it is not low enough

Noah has a summer tree-trimming business. Based on experience, Noah knows that his profit, P, in dollars, can be modelled by = −
crimeas [40]

Solving quadratic equations, it is found that he needs to charge:

1. He needs to charge $40 to break even.

2. He needs to charge $30 for a profit of $600.

<h3>What is a quadratic function?</h3>

A quadratic function is given according to the following rule:

y = ax^2 + bx + c

The solutions are:

  • x_1 = \frac{-b + \sqrt{\Delta}}{2a}
  • x_2 = \frac{-b - \sqrt{\Delta}}{2a}

In which:

\Delta = b^2 - 4ac

The profit equation in this problem is:

P(x) = -3x² + 150x - 1200.

He breaks even when P(x) = 0, hence:

-3x² + 150x - 1200 = 0.

The coefficients are a = -3, b = 150, c = -1200, hence:

  • \Delta = 150^2 - 4(-3)(-1200) = 8100
  • x_1 = \frac{-150 + \sqrt{8100}}{-6}
  • x_2 = \frac{-150 - \sqrt{8100}}{-6} = 40

He needs to charge $40 to break even.

For a profit of $600, we have that P(x) = 600, hence:

-3x² + 150x - 1200 = 600.

-3x² + 150x - 1800 = 0.

The coefficients are a = -3, b = 150, c = -1800, hence:

  • \Delta = 150^2 - 4(-3)(-1800) = 900
  • x_1 = \frac{-150 + \sqrt{900}}{-6}
  • x_2 = \frac{-150 - \sqrt{900}}{-6} = 30

He needs to charge $30 for a profit of $600.

The histogram below shows the distribution of the assets (in millions of dollars) of 71 companies. Does the distribution appear
solniwko [45]

Answer:

Yes, the assets appear to follow a normal distribution, the values are concentrated in the center and taper off towards the ends

Step-by-step explanation:

The distribution shown above is normal as it exhibits symmetry. This means thatvtge values are concentrated in the middle with the peak so situated in the middle of the distribution which is exactly what is displayed above. As we move towards either side of the center, the values begin to decrease and we have the tail at either side of the midpoint and not on one side of the distribution.

In the year 2019, Lee County used approximately 55 million gallons of water. Historical trends show that each year the water dem
Harlamova29_29 [7]

Answer:

Approximately 62 gallons of water will be used by Lee County by the year 2025.

Step-by-step explanation:

The amount, in millions gallons of water, spent by Lee County, in t years after 2019, is given by the following equation:

P(t) = P(0)(1 + r)^{t}

In which P(0) is the amount spent on 2019 and r is the increse rate, as a decimal.

In the year 2019, Lee County used approximately 55 million gallons of water.

This means that P(0) = 55

Historical trends show that each year the water demand is increasing by a rate of approximately 2.1%.

This means that r = 0.021

So

P(t) = P(0)(1 + r)^{t}

P(t) = 55(1 + 0.021)^{t}

P(t) = 55(1.021)^{t}

Approximately how many million gallons of water will be used by Lee County by the year 2025?

2025 is 2025 - 2019 = 6 years after 2019. So this is P(6).

P(t) = 55(1.021)^{t}

P(6) = 55(1.021)^{6}

P(6) = 62.3

Rounded to the nearest millions

Approximately 62 gallons of water will be used by Lee County by the year 2025.
