At a price of $8 per unit, suppliers are willing to provide 6 units. How many units are consumers interested in purchasing at a price of $4 a unit? At eight units consumers are interested in purchasing at a price of $4 a unit.

Step-by-step explanation:

the original revenue is

4×300 = $1200

revenue(n) = (4 + n×0.1)×(300 - n×5) = 1200 - 20n + 30n - 0.5×n² =

-0.5×n² + 10n + 1200

with n being the number of units of $0.10 increasing the price.

now, where is the extreme (maximum, we hope) value of the function ?

it is the 0 point of the first derivative :

revenue'(n) = -n + 10 = 0

n = 10

so, the maximum is when increasing the price by 10 times of $0.10 (that means by increasing it by a full $1).

that means the best is selling the slices for 4+1 = $5.

and the max. revenue is then

(4+1)(300-50) = 5×250 = $1250.

A random sample of eighty-five students in Chicago city high schools takes a course designed to improve SAT scores. Based on the
erica [24]

Answer:

(B) The correct interpretation of this interval is that 90% of the students in the population should have their scores improve by between 72.3 and 91.4 points.

Step-by-step explanation:

Confidence interval is the range the true values fall in under a given <em>confidence level</em>.

Confidence level states the probability that a random chosen sample performs the surveyed characteristic in the range of confidence interval. Thus,

90% confidence interval means that there is 90% probability that the statistic (in this case SAT score improvement) of a member of the population falls in the confidence interval.
