Answer:

x ≥ 767

The number of bags sold must be greater than or equal to 767 to make a minimum profit of $6900.

Step-by-step explanation:

If they want a profit of at least $6900, then the total amount earned would have to be ≥ 6900. You can always earn more than $6900, but the lowest should be equal to $6900.

So if we use x as the number of bags sold, and we know that each bag will earn $9, then x • 9 ≥ 6900.

If we divide both sides by 9, then the number of bags sold must be ≥ 767.

Suppose lightning strikes at an average of 1.4 strikes per minute during a particular storm. You play the following game: if the
ZanzabumX [31]

Answer:

$3.25

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

Mean, λ = 1.4

Strike within next minute = $3 won

Strike between one and 2 minutes = $5

Strike more than 2 minutes = $1

Probability that next strike occurs within the next minute :

Using poisson :

P(x < 1) = 1 - e^-(λx) ;

P(x < 1) = 1 - e^-(1.4*1) = 1 - e^-1.4

P(x < 1) = 1 - 0.2465969

P(x < 1) = 0.7534030

Next strike occurs between 1 and 2 minutes :

(1 < x < 2) :

P(x < 2) - P(x < 1)

P(x < 2) = 1 - e^-(λx) ;

P(x < 2) = 1 - e^-(1.4*2) = 1 - e^-2.8

P(x < 2) = 1 - 0.0608100

P(x < 2) = 0.9391899

P(x < 2) - P(x < 1)

0.9391899 - 0.7534030 = 0.1857869

P(striking after 2 minutes)

P(x > 2) = e^-(λx) ;

P(x > 2) = e^-(1.4*2) = e^-2.8

P(x > 2) = 0.0608100

Amount charged :

(0.7534030 * 3) + (0.1857869 * 5) + (0.06081 * 1)

= 3.2499

= $3.25

A student solved for the radius of a circle with a circumference of 12π Step 1: C = 2 pi r. Step 2: 12 pi = 2 pi r. Step 3: Star
Greeley [361]

Answer:

The student made a mistake in step 4

The length of the radius should be 6 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

Let us write each step to find the radius of a circle from its circumference

Step 1:

∵ C = 2πr

∵ C = 12π

Step 2:

Equate 12π by 2πr

∴ 12π = 2πr

Step 3:

Divide both sides by 2π

∵ \frac{12\pi }{2\pi }=\frac{2\pi r}{2\pi }

Step 4:

∴ 6 = r

∴ The radius of the circle is 6 cm

The student mad a mistake he divided the left hand side by 2π and the right hand side by 2 only he left π with r

Step 4:

∴ 6 = πr

So he divided both sides again by π

Step 5:

∵ \frac{6}{\pi }=\frac{\pi r}{\pi }

Step 7:

∴ \frac{6}{\pi } = r

The student made a mistake in step 4

The length of the radius should be 6 cm
