When dragons on planet Pern lay eggs, the eggs are either green or yellow. The biologists have observed over the years that 26%

of the eggs are yellow, and the rest green. Next spring the lead scientist has permission to randomly select 67 of the dragon eggs to incubate. Consider all the possible samples of 67 dragon eggs.
1. What is the mean number of yellow eggs in samples of 67 eggs? (that is the same as asking for the expected value of the number of yellow eggs)
(Give answer correct to at least one decimal place.)
mean =
2. What is the standard deviation in the number of yellow eggs in samples of size 67?
(Give answer correct to at least one decimal place.)
standard deviation =
3. What is the variance in the number of yellow eggs in samples of size 67?
(Remember to calculate the answer using at least 5 decimal places, then give answer correct to at least one decimal place.)

Answer:

μ=  17.42

var=  12.891= 12.9

σ = 3.59

Explanation:

As the number of trials are fixed  i.e 67 and the success is also fixed i.e 26% or 0.26 this is treated as a binomial experiment.

The mean of the binomial experiment is calculated as

μ= np = 67*0.26= 17.42

This is the same as the expected value of number of yellow eggs.

E(y)= np=μ=  67*0.26= 17.42

The variance  of the binomial experiment is calculated as

var= npq  = 67*0.26(1-0.26)= 67*0.26(0.74)= 12.8908= 12.891

The standard deviation  of the binomial experiment is calculated as

σ =√npq= √12.8908= 3.590376  = 3.59038= 3.5904 = 3.590= 3.59

Omaha Beef Co. purchased a delivery truck for $50,000. The residual value at the end of an estimated eight-year service life is
kati45 [8]

Answer:

2500

Explanation:

First depreciate for 6 years using regular method: (Cost - Salvage Value)/Initial Useful life

(50,000-10,000)/8 = 5000 <- this is annual depreciation

For 6 years, $30,000 accumulated depreciation

Now to calculate change in useful life, you do (Cost - Accumulated Depreciation - Salvage Value)/Remaining Useful life

Remaining Useful life = 10-6 = 4

(50,000-30,000-10,000)/4 = 2500

In economic theory, demand refers to the various amounts of goods or services that consumers are willing to buy over a specified
scoray [572]

Simply said, demand is the amount of a good or service that consumers are willing and able to purchase at a specific price within a specific time frame. In an economy, people purchase commodities and services to fulfil their needs for things like food, medical care, clothing, entertainment, shelter, etc.

One of the fundamental concepts in microeconomics is the notion of demand. It seeks to address fundamental issues such as how desperately people desire goods and how pleasure and income levels affect demand (utility). Companies change the supply they offer and the pricing they charge based on how useful consumers view the commodities and services to be.

You can borrow and lend at the interest rates of 7.00% in the US and 5.00% in Canada. Based on Interest Rate Parity, the forward
LUCKY_DIMON [66]

Answer:

1.90%

Explanation:

Note that that CAD exchange rate would be in terms of how many US dollars can be exchanged for 1 CAD, which means that the formula for forward premium would be stated in terms of US dollars, I mean the US$ as the numerator and CAD's interest rate would be the denominator

the forward premium for CAD=((1+US interest rate)/(1+Canada interest rate))-1

the forward premium for CAD=((1+7%)/(1+5%))-1

the forward premium for CAD=1.90%
