Peach Produces pays its employees by the formula of P(b) = 5/2b + 45 ,where p(b) is the employee's total pay and b is the number of bushels of peaches picked. According to the formula, what is the rate employees are paid per bushel of peaches picked?

A. $2.50
B. $5.00
C. $2.00
D. $45.00

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

The rate is $2.5

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that the expression for the pay of employee is given as

P(b) = 5/2b + 45

we can simplify the fraction and write it as decimal as

P(b) = 2.5b + 45

This means that the employees have a fixed pay of $45

and also a rate of $2.5 per peaches picked

therefore the answer is A. $2.5

The rate is $2.5

Answers

Answer:

The measure of C is 10°

Step-by-step explanation:

In a triangle CDE, its internal angles are given:

C=x-4

D=11x-11

E=x+13

Since the sum of the internal angles of a triangle is 180°:

x-4+11x-11+x+13=180

Simplifying:

13x-2=180

Adding 2:

13x=182

Solving:

x=182/13

x=14°

The measure of the angles is:

C=x-4 =10°

D=11x-11=143°

E=x+13=27°

The measure of C is 10°

Please help me I don’t get this

Answers

Sum of the interior angles of any triangle equal 180° .

Thus ;

[tex]x + 2x + x + 8 = 180[/tex]

[tex]4x + 8 = 180[/tex]

Subtract sides -8

[tex]4x + 8 - 8 = 180 - 8[/tex]

[tex]4x = 172[/tex]

Divided sides by 4

[tex] \frac{4}{4}x = \frac{172}{4} \\ [/tex]

[tex]x = 43[/tex]

So the angles are :

x = 43°

2x = 2 ( 43 ) = 86°

x + 8 = 43 + 8 = 51°

Thus the order from least to greatest ,

is : 43° , 51° , and 86°

URGENT

Answers

Answer:

0.8

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

Speed of light = 3 * 10^8 m/s

Distance of sun to Mars = 230,000,000 meters

How many seconds does it take for sunlight to reach Mars?

Using the relation :

Speed = distance / time

Hence ;

Time = Distance / Speed

Time = 2.3 * 10^8 / 3 * 10^8

Time = 0.766

Time = 0.8 ( nearest tenth)

4 = 10 + b

b = -6

y = 2x - 6

A salesperson is paid a flat rate plus a fixed percentage of her sales. Last month, she sold $16,000 worth of goods and was paid $1,600. Two months ago, she had $12,000 in sales and was paid $1,400. This month she sold $11,000 worth of goods. How much will she be paid?​

Answers

Answer:

She will be paid $1,350

Step-by-step explanation:

Linear Modeling

Some events can be modeled as linear functions. If we are in a situation where a linear model is suitable, then we need two sample points to make the model and predict unknown behaviors.

The linear function can be expressed in the slope-intercept format:

y=mx+b, where m and b are constants.

The payments for a salesperson will be linearly modeled. There are two known points: When the sales were $16,000, the payment was $1,600. This makes the point (16,000;1,600).

We also know when the sales were $12,000, the payment was $1,400. The point is (12,000;1,400)

Let's use the points to find the values of m and b.

Using (16,000;1,600):

1,600=m*16,000+b

Using (12,000;1,400):

1,400=m*12,000+b

Subtracting both equations:

200=16,000m-12,000m

200=4,000m

Solving:

m=200/4,000=0.05

Using the first equation and the value of m:

1,600=0.05*16,000+b

1,600=800+b

Solving:

b=800

The equation is now complete:

y=0.05x+800

She sold $11,000 this month, so the payment is:

[tex]y=0.05\cdot 11,000+800[/tex]

Y=550+800=1,350

She will be paid $1,350

Answer:

1350

Step-by-step explanation:

(Note: this method is not the best to use in future problems, please refer to the other answer if you want something better to use.)

16,000-12,000=4,000

1,600-1,400=200

To find the rate of change in 1000s:

200/4 = 50

Essentially this means the rise is 50 and the run is 1000, so, just remove $50 from the payment from 2 months ago to find your answer

For a certain product we obtained a regression line equation Y = 10 - 0.8 X, where X is price (in $) and Y is sales (in $1,000). The slope of the line (- 0.8) represents:___---.
A. If the price were $10, expected sales would be $8,000.B. If the price were zero, expected sales would $800.C. If the price increases by $1, sales will decrease by $800, on average.D. Sales are maximized when the price is $0.8.
E. None of the other answers are correct.

Answers

Answer:

C. If the price increases by $1, sales will decrease by $800, on average

Step-by-step explanation:

Slope of regression equation represents the increase/decrease in dependent variable Y due to unit change in independent variable X. Here, independent variable is X is price and dependent variable Y is sales. The slope negative sign represent decrease in dependent variable due to unit increase in independent variable. Sales is given in ($1000) So, (0.8*1000)=800. It means that due to unit dollar increase in price the sales will decrease by $800. Thus, If the price increases by $1, sales will decrease by $800, on average is the correct interpretation.

The prostate-specific antigen (PSA) test is a simple blood test to screen for prostate cancer. It has been used in men over 50 as a routine part of a physical exam, with levels above 4 ng/mL indicating possible prostate cancer. The test result is not always correct, sometimes indicating prostate cancer when it is not present and often missing prostate cancer that is present. Suppose that these are the approximate conditional probabilities of a positive (above 4 ng/ml) and negative test result given cancer is present or absent.
Test Result
Positive Negative
Cancer present 0.21 0.79
Cancer absent 0.06 0.94
In a large study of prostate cancer screening, it was found that about 6.5% of the population has prostate cancer.
A. Draw a tree diagram for selecting a person from this population (outcomes: cancer present or absent) and testing his blood (outcomes: test positive or negative).
B. What is the probability that the test is positive for a randomly chosen person from this population?

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

A tree diagram is the right way of determining a list of sample elements in the sample space. It is by finding the ordered n-tuples of the elements in the events under consideration.

We can found the tree diagram for selecting a person from the population in the given question in the attached image below.

b. Given that 6.5% of the population have prostate cancer. Suppose the total population is 100000. Then, we have the following table:

By applying Naive-Bayes theorem, the probability that the test is positive for a randomly chosen person from this population is expressed as:

P( positive ) = P( positive | cancer present ) P( cancer present ) + P( positive | cancer absent ) P( cancer absent )

P( positive ) = 0.21×0.065 + 0.06×(1 - 0.065)

P( positive ) = 0.01365  + 0.0561

P( positive ) = 0.06975

Thus, the probability that the test is positive for a randomly chosen person from this population is:

= 0.06975

Tommy Flanagan was telling you what he ate yesterday afternoon. He tells you, "I had either popcorn or raisins. Also, if I had cucumber sandwiches, then I had soda. But I didn’t drink soda or tea." Of course you know that Tommy is the worlds worst liar, and everything he says is false. What did Tommy eat? Justify your answer by writing all of Tommy’s statements using sentence variables (P, Q, R, S, T), taking their negations, and using these to deduce what Tommy actually ate.

Answers

Answer:

tom ate sandwiches of cucumber and also had tea

Step-by-step explanation:

The computation is shown below:

P:I = popcorn

Q:I  = raisins

R:I = cucumber sandwiches

S:I = sodas

T:I = tea

1. It could be either popcorn or raisins

2. If i take sandwiches of cucumber so it also had soda

3. Do not drink soda or tea

Now considered the negation of 1, 2 and 3

So,

[tex]\sim (PVQ) = \sim P \wedge \sim Q\\\\\sim (R \to S) = \sim(\sim R\vee S) = R \wedge \sim S\\\\ \sim(\sim S \vee \sim T) = S \wedge T[/tex]

Now combining 4, 5 and 6

We get

[tex]\sim P \wedge \sim Q \wedge R \wedge \sim S \wedge S \wedge T\\\\\sim P \wedge \sim Q \wedge R \wedge T[/tex]

So, tom ate sandwiches of cucumber and also had tea

Employed Graduates: According to the administration at a particular college, 55% of graduates are typically employed full time after graduation. To assess the impact of the current job market, the administration will take a survey of 619 recent graduates. The administration finds that 52% of the surveyed recent graduates were employed full time. If the population proportion of all recent graduates employed is the same as the stated proportion typically employed, how likely is it that the administration would have obtained a sample proportion as low as or lower than it obtained from its survey

Answers

Answer:

The likelihood is    [tex]P(p <  \^ p) = 0.066807[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question we are told that  

   The population proportion is p =0.55

    The sample size is  n  =  619  

   The sample proportion is  [tex]\^ p =  0.52[/tex]

Generally the mean of the sampling distribution is  [tex]\mu_{x} =  p = 0.55[/tex]

The standard deviation is  [tex]\sigma =  \sqrt{\frac{p(1- p )}{n} }[/tex]

=>    [tex]\sigma =  \sqrt{\frac{0.55(1- 0.55 )}{619} }[/tex]

=>     [tex]\sigma =  0.02[/tex]

Generally the likelihood that  the administration have obtained a sample proportion as low as or lower than it obtained from its survey is mathematically represented as

[tex]P(p <  \^ p) =  P(\frac{p- \mu}{\sigma }  < \frac{ 0.52- 0.55}{0.02 }   )[/tex]

Generally [tex]\frac{p- \mu}{\sigma }  =  Z(The \  standardized \  value  \  of  \  p)[/tex]

=>   [tex]P(p <  \^ p) =  P(Z <-1.5  )[/tex]

From the z-table the probability of (Z <-1.5  ) is  

       [tex]P(Z <-1.5  )  = 0.066807[/tex]

So

      [tex]P(p <  \^ p) = 0.066807[/tex]

You are given $893 in one, five, and ten dollar bills. There are 165 bills. There are twice as many five dollar bills as there are ones and tens combined. How many bills of each type are there?

Answers

Given:

You are given $893 in one, five, and ten dollar bills.

There are 165 bills.

There are twice as many five dollar bills as there are ones and tens combined.

To find:

How many bills of each type are there?

Solution:

Consider the number of bills of one dollars, five dollars and ten dollars are x, y and z respectively.

According to the question,

Number of bills : [tex]x+y+z=165[/tex]         ...(1)

Total amount : [tex]1x+5y+10z=893[/tex]         ...(2)

Condition : [tex]y=2(x+z)[/tex]     ...(3)

Equation (3) can be written as

[tex]\dfrac{y}{2}=x+z[/tex]       ...(4)

Substituting [tex]x+z=\dfrac{y}{2}[/tex] in (1), we get

[tex]\dfrac{y}{2}+y=165[/tex]

[tex]\dfrac{3y}{2}=165[/tex]

[tex]3y=330[/tex]

[tex]y=110[/tex]

Substituting y=110 in (4), we get

[tex]x+z=\dfrac{165}{2}[/tex]

[tex]x+z=55[/tex]

[tex]x=55-z[/tex]       ...(5)

Substituting y=110 and x=55-z in (2), we get

[tex](55-z)+5(110)+10z=893[/tex]

[tex]55-z+550+10z=893[/tex]

[tex]9z+605=893[/tex]

[tex]9z=893-605[/tex]

[tex]9z=288[/tex]

Dividing both sides by 9, we get

[tex]z=32[/tex]

Substituting z=32 in (5), we get

[tex]x=55-32[/tex]

[tex]x=23[/tex]

Therefore,

One dollar bills = 23

Five dollars bills= 110

Ten dollars bills = 32

A manufacturer of potato chips would like to know whether its bag filling machine works correctly at the 444.0 gram setting. It is believed that the machine is underfilling the bags. A 40 bag sample had a mean of 443.0 grams. A level of significance of 0.02 will be used.

Required:
State the hypotheses. Assume the standard deviation is known to be 23.0.

Answers

Answer:

Null hypothesis:

[tex]\mathbf{H_o: \mu = 444}[/tex]

Alternative hypothesis:

[tex]\mathbf{H_1: \mu < 444}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

From the given information:

the population mean = 444

the sample mean = 443

number of samples = 40

standard deviation = 23

The null hypotheses and he alternative hypotheses can be computed as:

Null hypothesis:

[tex]\mathbf{H_o: \mu = 444}[/tex]

Alternative hypothesis:

[tex]\mathbf{H_1: \mu < 444}[/tex]

Thus, this is left-tailed since the alternative hypothesis is less than the population mean

The test statistics can be computed as follows:

[tex]Z = \dfrac{\overline x - \mu }{\dfrac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}}[/tex]

[tex]Z = \dfrac{443 - 444 }{\dfrac{23}{\sqrt{40}}}[/tex]

Z = - 0.275

At the level of significance of 0.02;

the critical value of [tex]Z_{\alpha/2} = Z_{0.02/2}=-2.05[/tex]

Decision rule: To reject the null hypothesis if the value of the Z score is lesser than the critical value.

Conclusion:

We fail to reject the null hypothesis and we conclude that sufficient evidence to support the claim that the machine bags were underfilled.
