The expected value of this policy to the insurance company is $285.00.

Using this formula

Policy expected value=Insurance policy charges-[(Probability × Claim)+(Probability × Claim)]

Let plug in the formula

Policy expected value=$1,300-{(.0041)($150,000)+(.08)($5,000)]

Policy expected value=$1,300-($615+$$400)

Policy expected value=$1,300-$1,015

Policy expected value=$285.00

Inconclusion the expected value of this policy to the insurance company is $285.00

Consider the parabola y = 5x − x2. (a) find the slope m of the tangent line to the parabola at the point (1, 4).
kkurt [141]
The tangent line to a curve is the one that coincides with the curve at a point and with the same derivative, that is, the same degree of variation.
 We have then:
 y = 5x-x²
 Deriving:
 y '= 5-2x
 In point (1, 4)
 The slope is:
 y (1) '= 5-2 * (1)
 y (1) '= 3
 The equation of the line will be:
 y-f (a) = f '(a) (x-a)
 We have then:
 y-4 = 3 (x-1)
 Rewriting:
 y = 3x-3 + 4
 y = 3x + 1
 Answer:
 the tangent line to the parabola at the point (1, 4) is
 y = 3x + 1
 the slope m is
 m = 3

Add the following polynomials:
All polynomials are already ordered according to their degree (exponent), and therefore you can just add straight down in columns.
For x3: 2 + 1 - 3 = 0
For x2: -4 + 6 + 2 = 4 
For x: 6 - 8 -4 = -6
Constants: -3 + 12 - 7 = 2

The answer is:
4x^2 - 6x + 2

Over the three evenings,Karen received a total of 137 phone calls at the call center. The third evening, she received 4 times as
marin [14]

Answer:

1st: 22, 2nd: 27, 3rd: 88

Step-by-step explanation:

Make an equation

If she recieved x calls the 1st evening, then the 2nd evening she recieved x+5, and the 3rd evening she recieved 4x.

x+x+5+4x=137

Combine like terms

6x+5=137

Subtract 5 from both sides

6x=132

Divide by 6 on both sides

x=22

First:

22 calls

Second:

x+5

22+5

27 calls

Third:

4x

4*22

88 calls

Hope this helps!
