ed, Carrie will earn a profit if she sells chairs for more than $150 each. If material 1 is used, Carrie will earn a profit if she sells chairs for lower than $50 each.

The profit function is the difference between the cost and the revenue functions.

The true statement is (a) If material 2 is used, Carrie will earn a profit if she sells chairs for more than $150 each.

<h3>How to determine the true profit functions</h3>

From the complete questions, the profit functions are calculated as follows:

<u>Material 1</u>

P(x) = 5000000- 20000x - 200000x + 2000x^2

P(x) = 5000000-220000x + 2000x^2

<u>Material 2</u>

P(x) = 4000000 - 10000x - 160000x+ 1000x^2

P(x) = 4000000-170000x+ 1000x^2

<u>Material 3</u>

P(x) = 2000000 - 5000x - 54000x - 270x^2

P(x) = 2000000 -59000x - 270x^2

Next, we test the options

Option 1: When material 2 is used

A price is greater than $150 is $151.

Calculate P(151) using P(x) = 4000000-170000x+ 1000x^2

So, we have:

P(151) = 4000000-170000 * 151+ 1000* 151^2

P(151) = 1131000

P(151) is greater than 0; this represents a profit

Hence, option (1) is true

Option 2: When material 1 is used

A price is less than $50 is $49.

Calculate P(49) using P(x) = 5000000-220000x + 2000x^2

So, we have:

P(49) = 5000000-220000 * 49 + 2000* 49^2

P(49) =-978000

P(49) is less than 0; this represents loss

Hence, option (2) is false

Option 3: When material 3 is used

Calculate P(45) and P(160) using P(x) = 2000000 -59000x - 270x^2

So, we have:

P(45) = 2000000 -59000 * 45 - 270 * 45^2

P(45) = -1201750

P(45) is less than 0; this represents loss

Hence, option (3) is false

Option 1: When material 2 is used

Calculate P(30) and P(120) using P(x) = 4000000-170000x+ 1000x^2

So, we have:

P(30) = 4000000-170000*30+ 1000*30^2

P(30) = -200000

P(30) is less than 0; this represents a loss

Hence, option (4) is false

Option 2: When material 1 is used

Calculate P(40) and P(70) using P(x) = 5000000-220000x + 2000x^2

So, we have:

P(40) = 5000000-220000*40 + 2000*40^2

P(40) = -600000

P(49) is less than 0; this represents loss

Hence, option (5) is false

The above means that:

The true statement is (a) If material 2 is used, Carrie will earn a profit if she sells chairs for more than $150 each.

A food-packaging apparatus underfills 10% of the containers. Find the probability that for any particular 10 containers the numb
Maksim231197 [3]

Answer:

a) P(X = 1) = 0.38742

b) P(X = 3) = 0.05740

c) P(X = 9) = 0.00000

d) P(X \geq 5) = 0.00163

Step-by-step explanation:

For each container, there are only two possible outcomes. Either it is undefilled, or it is not. This means that we can solve this problem using the binomial probability distribution.

Binomial probability distribution:

The binomial probability is the probability of exactly x successes on n repeated trials, and X can only have two outcomes.

P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}

In which C_{n,x} is the number of different combinatios of x objects from a set of n elements, given by the following formula.

C_{n,x} = \frac{n!}{x!(n-x)!}

And p is the probability of X happening.

In this problem

There are 10 containers, so n = 10.

A food-packaging apparatus underfills 10% of the containers, so p = 0.1.

a) This is P(X = 1)

P(X = 1) = C_{10,1}.(0.1)^{1}.(0.9)^{9} = 0.38742

b) This is P(X = 3)

P(X = 3) = C_{10,3}.(0.1)^{3}.(0.9)^{7} = 0.05740

c) This is P(X = 9)

P(X = 9) = C_{10,9}.(0.1)^{9}.(0.9)^{1} = 0.00000

d) This is P(X \geq 5).

Either the number is lesser than five, or it is five or larger. The sum of the probabilities of each event is decimal 1. So:

P(X < 5) + P(X \geq 5) = 1

P(X \geq 5) = 1 - P(X < 5)

In which

P(X < 5) = P(X = 0) + P(X = 1) + P(X = 2) + P(X = 3) + P(X = 4)

P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}

P(X = 0) = C_{10,0}.(0.1)^{0}.(0.9)^{10} = 0.34868

P(X = 1) = C_{10,1}.(0.1)^{1}.(0.9)^{9} = 0.38742

P(X = 2) = C_{10,2}.(0.1)^{2}.(0.9)^{8} = 0.1937

P(X = 3) = C_{10,3}.(0.1)^{3}.(0.9)^{7} = 0.05740

P(X = 4) = C_{10,4}.(0.1)^{1}.(0.9)^{9} = 0.38742

So

P(X < 5) = P(X = 0) + P(X = 1) + P(X = 2) + P(X = 3) + P(X = 4) = 0.34868 + 0.38742 + 0.19371 + 0.05740 + 0.01116 = 0.99837

Finally

P(X \geq 5) = 1 - P(X < 5) = 1 - 0.99837 = 0.00163

Cerrena [4.2K]
<h3>Answers: </h3>

Angle 1 and 3:  Vertical Angles

Angle 4 and 8: Corresponding Angles

Angles 4 and 6: Alternate Interior Angles

Angles 3 and 5: Alternate Interior Angles

Angles 7 and 8: Linear Pair

Angles 1 and 7: Alternate Exterior Angles

=================================================

Explanation:

Vertical angles are formed when you cross two lines to form an X shape. The vertical angles are opposite one another in this configuration.

Corresponding angles are ones that show up in the same corner of each four-corner crossing. In the case of angles 4 and 8, both are in the southwest corner of each four-corner crossing.

Alternate interior angles are angles in between parallel lines and on opposite sides of a transversal. Alternate exterior angles are similar, but they are outside the parallel lines.

A linear pair of angles are adjacent and supplementary (meaning they add to 180).

The length of the brace required is 4.3m

What is sine rule?

In a ΔABC a, b and c are the sides and A, B and C are angles then,

\frac{a}{SinA}=\frac{b}{sinB}=\frac{c}{sinC}

We can find the length, l as shown below:

Let AB=3m, BC=2m and AC=l

Let ∠A=25°

So, in ΔABC

\frac{BC}{sinA}=\frac{AB}{sinC}=\frac{AC}{SinB}

\frac{BC}{sinA}=\frac{AB}{sinC}

\frac{2}{sin25}=\frac{3}{sinC}

\angle{C}=sin^{-1}(\frac{3\times sin25}{2} )

∠C=39.34°

∠A+∠B+∠C=180°

∠B=180°-25°-39.34°

∠B=115.66°

\frac{BC}{sinA}=\frac{AC}{SinB}

\frac{2}{sin25}=\frac{l}{sin(115.66)}

l=\frac{2\times sin(115.66)}{sin25}

l=4.2659

Rounding to nearest tenth of meter.

l=4.3m

Hence, the length of the brace required is 4.3m
