Answer:
The owner's total profit is $120,000.
Step-by-step explanation:
Assume that:
X₁ = contract is assigned to firm 1
X₂ = contract is assigned to firm 2
The sample space for assigning the two contracts is:
S = {(I, I), (I, II), (I, III), (II, I), (II, II), (II, III), (III, I), (III, II) and (III, III)}
There are total of 9 possible combinations.
So, the probability of selecting any of the combination is, 1/9.
Compute the probability distribution of X₁ and X₂ as follows:
X₁ P (X₁) X₂ P (X₂)
0 4/9 0 4/9
1 4/9 1 4/9
2 1/9 2 1/9
Compute the expected values of X₁ and X₂ as follows:
[tex]E(X_{1})=\sum X_{1}\cdot P(X_{1})\\\\=(0\times\frac{4}{9})+(1\times\frac{4}{9})+(2\times\frac{1}{9})\\\\=\frac{6}{9}\\\\=\frac{2}{3}[/tex] [tex]E(X_{2})=\sum X_{2}\cdot P(X_{2})\\\\=(0\times\frac{4}{9})+(1\times\frac{4}{9})+(2\times\frac{1}{9})\\\\=\frac{6}{9}\\\\=\frac{2}{3}[/tex]
It is provided that each contract will yield a profit of $90,000.
Compute the owner's total profit as follows:
[tex]\text{Total Profit}=\text{Profit}\times [E(X_{1})+E(X_{2})][/tex]
[tex]=90000\times[\frac{2}{3}+\frac{2}{3}]\\\\=120000[/tex]
Thus, the owner's total profit is $120,000.
Candice is preparing for her final exam in Statistics. She knows she needs an 65 out of 100 to earn an A overall in the course. Her instructor provided the following information to the students. On the final, 200 students have taken it with a mean score of 57 and a standard deviation of 6. Assume the distribution of scores is bell-shaped. Calculate to see if a score of 65 is within one standard deviation of the mean.
Answer:
a. 72
b. 816
c. 570
d. 30
Step-by-step explanation:
Given the graph is a bell - shaped curve. So, we understand that this is a normal distribution and that the bell - shaped curve is a symmetric curve.
Please refer the figure for a better understanding.
a. In a normal distribution, Mean = Median = Mode
Therefore, Median = Mean = 72
b. We have to know that 68% of the values are within the first standard deviation of the mean.
i.e., 68% values are between Mean Standard Deviation (SD).
Scores between 63 and 81 :
Note that 72 - 9 = 63 and
72 + 9 = 81
This implies scores between 63 and 81 constitute 68% of the values, 34% each, since the curve is symmetric.
Now, Scores between 63 and 81 =
= 68 X 12 = 816.
That means 816 students have scored between 63 and 81.
c. We have to know that 95% of the values lie between second Standard Deviation of the mean.
i.e., 95% values are between Mean 2(SD).
Note that 90 = 72 + 2(9) = 72 + 18
Also, 54 = 63 - 18.
Scores between 54 and 90 totally constitute 95% of the values. So, Scores between 72 and 90 should amount to of the values.
Therefore, Scores between 72 and 90 =
= 570.
That is a total of 570 students scored between 72 and 90.
d. We have to know that 5 % of the values lie on the thirst standard Deviation of the mean.
In this case, 5 % of the values lie between below 54 and above 90.
Since, we are asked to find scores below 54. It should be 2.5% of the values.
So, Scores below 54 =
= 2.5 X 12 = 30.
That is, 30 students have scored below 54.
Step-by-step explanation:
It is found that score of 62 is not within one standard deviation of the mean.
What is z - score?The Z-score measures how many standard deviations the measure is from the mean. If we've got a normal distribution, then we can convert it to standard normal distribution and its values will give us the z score.
If we have [tex]X \sim N(\mu, \sigma)[/tex]then it can be converted to standard normal distribution as
[tex]Z = \dfrac{X - \mu}{\sigma}, \\\\Z \sim N(0,1)[/tex]
In a set with mean and standard deviation, the z- score of a measure X is given by:
[tex]Z = \dfrac{X - \mu}{\sigma},[/tex]
Z-score, we look at the z-score table and find the p-value associated with this z-score.
Given that Mean score of 54 and a standard deviation of 6.
This means to see if a score of 62 is within one standard deviation of the mean.
Is Z between -1 and 1 when X = 62.
[tex]Z = \dfrac{X - \mu}{\sigma},\\Z = \dfrac{62 - 54}{6},[/tex]
Z = 1.33
Therefore, It is found that score of 62 is not within one standard deviation of the mean.

In a certain chemical, the ratio of zinc to copper is 4 to 17 . A jar of the chemical contains 663 of copper. How many grams of zinc does it contain?
Answer:
The jar contains 156 grams of zinc
Step-by-step explanation:
Ratios
Let's call
Z=gr of zinc
C=gr of copper
We know the ratio between them in a certain chemical is:
[tex]\displaystyle \frac{Z}{C}=\frac{4}{17}[/tex]
The jar of the chemical contains C=663 gr of copper. Calculate the grams of zinc by solving the above relation for Z:
Multiplying by C:
[tex]\displaystyle Z=\frac{4}{17}\cdot C[/tex]
Substituting the value of C:
[tex]\displaystyle Z=\frac{4}{17}\cdot 663[/tex]
Z=156 gr
The jar contains 156 grams of zinc

Emilia wrote a total of 12 pages over 4 hours. After spending 6 hours writing this week, how
many pages will Emilia have written in total? Assume the relationship is directly proportional.
Answer:
30 pages
Step-by-step explanation:
Knowing she wrote 12 pages in 4 hours, we can do 12/4 to get 3 pages per hour. Multiply 3 pages by the 6 hours she spends writing and you get 18 pages in 6 hours. Add 12 pages and 18 pages and you have 30 pages.
Sophia says that you can solve the problem in the Example by multiplying both quantities in the ratio 60:36 by one-sixth. Is Sophia correct?
Answer:
Sophia is not correct
Step-by-step explanation:
The given situation represent the problem of a ratio and it is predicted to do the simplify the ratio by determining the smallest possible values
Here it can be presented 60:36 as a fraction i.e. [tex]\frac{60}{36}[/tex]
Now the fraction should be fall by dividing both the numerator and denominator by a common factor i.e. 6
Now after dividing it, the fraction would be [tex]\frac{10}{6}[/tex]
Now it can be further reduced by a common factor i.e. 2
So now the fraction is [tex]\frac{5}{2}[/tex]
Thus, the ratio is 5:2
Hence, she is not correct
The components of a vector are Ax = –10 units and Ay = 8 units. What angle does this vector make with the positive x axis? g
Answer:
This vector make an angle of 141° with the positive x axis
Step-by-step explanation:
Refer the attached figure
Components of vector :
[tex]A_x=-10 \\A_y = 8[/tex]
We are supposed to find What angle does this vector make with the positive x axis
[tex]tan \theta =\frac{A_y}{A_x}\\tan \theta =\frac{8}{-10}\\\theta =tan^{-1}(\frac{8}{-10})\\\theta =tan^{-1}(\frac{8}{-10})=-38.65^{\circ}[/tex]
Now ,
[tex]\alpha = 180-38.65=141.35^{\circ}[/tex]
So, this vector make an angle of 141° with the positive x axis
A survey of 1282 student loan borrowers found that 440 had loans totaling more than $20,000 for their undergraduate education. Give a 98% confidence interval for the proportion of all student loan borrowers who have loans of $20,000 or more for their undergraduate education. (Give answers accurate to 3 decimal places.)
Answer:
The 98% confidence interval of the proportion = (0.312, 0.374)
Step-by-step explanation:
(Give answers accurate to 3 decimal places.)
The formula for Confidence Interval of Proportion is given as:
p ± z × √p(1 - p)/n
Where p = Proportion = x/n
x = 440
n = 1282
p = 440/1282 = 0.34321372854
Approximately = 0.343
z = z-score of 98 % confidence interval
= 2.326
Confidence Interval =
= 0.343 ± 2.326 × √0.343(1 - 0.343)/1282
= 0.343 ± 2.326 × √0.225351/1282
= 0.343 ± 2.326 × √0.00017578081
= 0.343 ± 2.326 × 0.01325823555
= 0.343 ± 0.03083865589
0.343 - 0.03083865589
= 0.31216134411
Approximately = 0.312
0.343 + 0.03083865589
= 0.37383865589
Approximately to = 0.374
Therefore, the 98% confidence interval of the proportion = (0.312, 0.374)
Write an equation, in slope-intercept form,
for a line that passes through points (-4, 1)
and (2. 4).
Answer:
y = (3/2)x + 7
Step-by-step explanation:
(−4, 1) and (−2, 4)
slope m = rise/run = (4-1)/(-2-(-4)) = 3/2
Slope intercept form is y=mx+b
where m=slope, b = y-inercept
y = (3/2)x + b
Use one of the given points for (x,y) to find b
1 = (3/2)(-4) + b
1 = -6 + b
7 = b
y = (3/2)x + 7

What is the leading coefficient of a third degree polynomial function that has an output of 1,272 when x=2, and has zeros of −6, 7i, and −7i?
Answer:
The leading coefficient is 3
Step-by-step explanation:
Polynomials
Given the roots of a polynomial x1,x2,x3, it can be expressed as:
[tex]p(x)=a(x-x1)(x-x2)(x-x3)[/tex]
Where a is the leading coefficient.
We are given the roots x1=-6, x2=7i, x3=-7i, thus:
[tex]p(x)=a(x+6)(x-7i)(x+7i)[/tex]
Operating the product of the conjugated imaginary roots:
[tex]p(x)=a(x+6)(x^2+49)[/tex]
Knowing p(2)=1,272 we can find the value of a
[tex]p(2)=a(2+6)(4+49)=1,272[/tex]
Operating:
[tex]a(8)(53)=1,272[/tex]
[tex]424a=1,272[/tex]
Solving:
[tex]a=1,272/424[/tex]
a=3
The leading coefficient is 3
Answer:
3
