The following function represents the profit P(n), in dollars, that a concert promoter makes by selling tickets for n dollars ea

Gre4nikov [31]

A) zeroes

P(n) = -250 n^2 + 2500n - 5250

Extract common factor:

P(n)= -250 (n^2 - 10n + 21)

Factor (find two numbers that sum -10 and its product is 21)

P(n) = -250(n - 3)(n - 7)

Zeroes ==> n - 3 = 0 or n -7 = 0
Then n = 3 and n = 7 are the zeros.

They rerpesent that if the promoter sells tickets at 3 or 7 dollars the profit is zero.

B) Maximum profit

Completion of squares

n^2 - 10n + 21 = n^2 - 10n + 25 - 4 = (n^2 - 10n+ 25) - 4 = (n - 5)^2 - 4

P(n) = - 250[(n-5)^2 -4] = -250(n-5)^2 + 1000

Maximum ==> - 250 (n - 5)^2 = 0 ==> n = 5 and P(5) = 1000

Maximum profit =1000 at n = 5

C) Axis of symmetry

Vertex = (h,k) when the equation is in the form A(n-h)^2 + k

Comparing A(n-h)^2 + k with - 250(n - 5)^2 + 1000

Vertex = (5, 1000) and the symmetry axis is n = 5.

Answer:

b) 0.8413

c) 0.8413

d) 0.6826

e) 0.9332

f) 1

Step-by-step explanation:

Problems of normally distributed samples are solved using the z-score formula.

In a set with mean $\mu$ and standard deviation $\sigma$ , the zscore of a measure X is given by:

$Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}$

The Z-score measures how many standard deviations the measure is from the mean. After finding the Z-score, we look at the z-score table and find the p-value associated with this z-score. This p-value is the probability that the value of the measure is smaller than X, that is, the percentile of X. Subtracting 1 by the pvalue, we get the probability that the value of the measure is greater than X.

In this problem, we have that:

$\mu = 6, \sigma = 0.2$

(a) P(x > 6) =

This is 1 subtracted by the pvalue of Z when X = 6. So

$Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}$

$Z = \frac{6-6}{0.2}$

$Z = 0$

$Z = 0$ has a pvalue of 0.5.

1 - 0.5 = 0.5.

(b) P(x < 6.2)=

This is the pvalue of Z when X = 6.2. So

$Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}$

$Z = \frac{6.2-6}{0.2}$

$Z = 1$

$Z = 1$ has a pvalue of 0.8413

(c) P(x ≤ 6.2) =

In the normal distribution, the probability of an exact value, for example, P(X = 6.2), is always zero, which means that P(x ≤ 6.2) = P(x < 6.2) = 0.8413.

(d) P(5.8 < x < 6.2) =

This is the pvalue of Z when X = 6.2 subtracted by the pvalue of Z when X 5.8.

X = 6.2

$Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}$

$Z = \frac{6.2-6}{0.2}$

$Z = 1$

$Z = 1$ has a pvalue of 0.8413

X = 5.8

$Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}$

$Z = \frac{5.8-6}{0.2}$

$Z = -1$

$Z = -1$ has a pvalue of 0.1587

0.8413 - 0.1587 = 0.6826

(e) P(x > 5.7) =

This is 1 subtracted by the pvalue of Z when X = 5.7.

$Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}$

$Z = \frac{5.8-6}{0.2}$

$Z = -1.5$

$Z = -1.5$ has a pvalue of 0.0668

1 - 0.0668 = 0.9332

(f) P(x > 5) =

This is 1 subtracted by the pvalue of Z when X = 5.

$Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}$

$Z = \frac{5-6}{0.2}$

$Z = -5$

$Z = -5$ has a pvalue of 0.

1 - 0 = 1
