The volunteers at a high school football team’s concession stand are trying to decide on the price of the hot dogs they are sell

ing. When they charge $2 for a hot dog, they sell an average of 70 hot dogs per game. With every $1 increase in the price, the number of hot dogs sold per game decreases by 8.
The volunteers can calculate the revenue earned from selling the hot dogs at each game using the expression -8x2 + 54x + 140, where x is the number of $1 increases in price

Answer:

x is the number of $1 increase in the price.

If there is no increase, then the total money earned is

2 × 70 = 140

If there is $1 increase, then the total money earned is

(2 + 1) × [70 - 8(1)]

If there is $2 increase, then the total money earned is

(2 + 2) × [70 - 8(2)]

If we continue the pattern, for x times $1 increase, total money earned is

(2 + x)(70 - 8x) =

If we substitute x = 0 in the above equation, we will get

the total money earned = $140.

It means if there is no increase, then the total money earned = 140.

Hence, 140 is the constant term and it represents that there is no increase in price.

goldenfox [79]

Answer:

probability that a randomly selected page that contains only text will contain no typos that is

P(x=0) = e^{-0.08} = 0.923

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Poisson distribution</u>:-

Explanation of the Poisson distribution :-

The Poisson distribution can be derived as a limiting case of the binomial

distribution under the conditions that

i) p is very small

ii) n is very large

ii) λ = np (say finite

The probability of 'r' successes = \frac{e^{-\alpha }\alpha^r  }{r!}

Given the average number of typos ∝ = 0.08 per page.

probability that a randomly selected page that contains only text will contain no typos that is = p(x=0) = \frac{e^{-0.08 }\(-0.08)^0  }{0!}

After calculation P(x=0) = e^{-0.08} = 0.923

probability that a randomly selected page that contains only text will contain no typos =0.923

Write an equation in point-slope form of a line that goes through the points (1,4) and (3,-10). Do not use any spaces in your an
olasank [31]

Answer:

y-4=-7(x-1) OR y-(-10)=-7(x-3)

Step-by-step explanation: The point-slope form is y_-y_{1}=m_(x_-x_{1})

In slope-intercept form, the equation would be y = -7x + 11

You could find the slope by using the slope equation, \frac{y_{2} -y_{1} }{x_{2} -x_{1} }.

Using that, you would get -7. Thus by inserting one of the points and the slope in the point-slope equation, you will get your answer.
