A running shoe store mounts a new promotional campaign. Purchasers of new shoes may, if dissatisfied for any reason, return them within 7 days of purchase and receive a full refund. The cost to the dealer of such a refund is $105. The dealer estimates that with an 11% probability each purchaser, for whatever reason, will return their pair of shoes and obtain refunds. Suppose that 120 pairs of shoes are purchased during the campaign period. Clearly the exact number of purchasers who return their product is unknown. Answer the following questions:

a. Describe the probability distribution of the number of pairs of shoes that will be returned for refunds.
b. What is the mean and standard deviation of the number of pairs of shoes that will be returned for refunds.
c. What is the mean and standard deviation of the total refund costs that will accrue as a result of these refunds.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

a

             [tex]P(K = k ) = \  ^nC_x * p^k  *  (1-p)^{n-k}[/tex]

Here  k is the random number of number of pairs of shoes that will be returned for refund, which can be  k = 0,1 ,2,3,4 ..., 120

b

The mean is   [tex]E(K) =  np =  13.2[/tex]  

The  standard deviation is  [tex]\sigma =  3.43[/tex]

c

The mean is  [tex]E(C) =   E(105 K) =  1386[/tex]

The standard deviation is   [tex]\sigma  =  381.48 [/tex]  

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question we are told that

   The  cost to dealer for each refund is  [tex]C =  \$105[/tex]

   The  probability  that a shoe will refunded is  [tex]P(x) =  0.11[/tex]

   The number of shoes purchased is  n  =  120 pairs

Generally the probability distribution of the number of pairs of shoes that will be returned for refunds is

          [tex]P(K = k ) = \  ^nC_x * p^k  *  (1-p)^{n-k}[/tex]

Here  k is the random number of number of pairs of shoes that will be returned for refund, which can be  k = 0,1 ,2,3,4 ..., 120

Generally the mean is mathematically represented as

     [tex]E(K) =  np =  120 * 0.11[/tex]

=>    [tex]E(K) =  np =  13.2[/tex]  

Generally the  standard deviation is mathematically represented as

     [tex]\sigma  =  \sqrt{ n*  p  (1-p)}[/tex]

=>    [tex]\sigma  =  \sqrt{ 120* 0.11  (1-0.11)}[/tex]

=>    [tex]\sigma =  3.43[/tex]

Generally the total refund cost is mathematically represented as

     [tex]C =  105 K[/tex]

Here K denotes the number of shoes returned

Generally the mean of the total refund cost is mathematically represented as

           [tex]E(C) =   E(105 K) =  105 E(K)[/tex]

=>         [tex]E(C) =   E(105 K) =  105 * 13.2[/tex]

=>         [tex]E(C) =   E(105 K) =  1386[/tex]

Generally the variance of the total refund cost is mathematically represented as

       [tex]Var(K) =  105^2 *  E(K)[/tex]

=>     [tex]Var(K) =  105^2 *  13.2[/tex]

=>    [tex]Var(K) =  145530[/tex]  

=>      [tex]\sigma =  \sqrt{145530 }[/tex]

=>    [tex]\sigma  =  381.48 [/tex]

An angle measures 44° less than the measure of its supplementary angle. What is the
measure of each angle?

Answers

Answer:

The angle is 112 degrees and the supplement is 68 degrees.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the angle’s measure be represented by x and the supplement’s measure be represented by y. Since supplementary angles add to 180 degrees, x + y = 180.

Since the supplement is 44 degrees less than the angle,

y + 44 = x

We can substitute y + 44 = x for x in the first equation, since they are equivalent.

y + 44 + y = 180

2y + 44 = 180

2y = 136

y = 68

Substitute 68 for y in one of the original equations and solve.

68 + 44 = x

x = 112

The greatest between the 25% or [tex]\frac{7}{25}[/tex] should be considered as the [tex]\frac{7}{25}[/tex] because it is 28%.

Calculation of the greatest number:

Since one percentage i.e. 25% and one fraction i.e. [tex]\frac{7}{25}[/tex]

We need to determine greater between these two

So the fraction in percentage could be 28%

So we can say that the fraction should be bigger.

A motor boat traveling with the current went 30mi in 3 h. Against the current, it took 5 h to travel the same distance. Find the rate of the boat in calm water and the rate of the current

Answers

Answer:

Speed of the boat is 9.4mph and the current is 15.4mph

Step-by-step explanation:

Rate= distance/ time

With current; rate= boat+ current= b+c

Against current; rate= boat - current = b- c

30=3(b+c)••••••••••••••eqn(1)

30=5(b-c)•••••••••••••••••eqn(2)

30=3b +3c••••••••••••••eqn(3)

30=5b-5c•••••••••••••••eqn(4)

Solve simultaneously

b=12mph

From eqn(3)

30=3b +3c

Divide both sides by 3, we have

10= b+c

If we make "b" the subject of the formula we have

b= (10-c)••••••••eqn(5)

Divide both side of eqn(4) by 5 we have

6=b-c••••••••eqn(7)

Substitute eqn(5) into 7

6= (10-c)-c

6= 10c-c^2

C^2-10c+6

C= 9.4 or 0.64

Substitute the highest value 9.4 into equation 7

6=b-9.4

b=6+9.4

b= 15.4

Speed of the boat is 9.4mph and the current is 15.4mph

For a field trip, a bus company charges a flat fee plus an additional fee per student. For

$182.50. Write an equation that represents the total cost y of the field trip for x
students. What would the total cost be if 80 students went on the field trip?

Answers

Answer: here

Step-by-step explanation:

The answer comes from the derivation of a straight line model for the cost vs students. Note that the change in cost of 145-135.50 = 9.50 for an increase of students from 25 to 30. The ratio of change of cost to change of students = 9.50/5 = 1.9 and becomes the slope coefficient "m" in the formula y= mx + b. y = the total cost, mx becomes the variable cost and b becomes the fixed cost. To find b, use the data point given where the total cost = $135.50 when the students = 25, or 135.50 = 1.9*25 +b. Solving for b yields $ 88. Note that the other data point is where the total cost is $145 for students = 30. Using the new total cost equation shows that 30*1.9+88= 145 thus verifying the math model works for the data points provided.

An angle measures 126° more than the measure of its supplementary angle. What is the measure of each angle?

Answers

Solution:

We know that:

A pair of supplementary angles always sum up to 180°

This means that:

[tex]x + x + 126 = 180[/tex]

Step-by step calculations:

Combine like terms and simplify:

[tex]x + x + 126 = 180[/tex]=> [tex](x + x) + 126 = 180[/tex]=> [tex]2x + 126 = 180[/tex]

Subtract 126 both sides:

=> [tex]2x + 126 - 126 = 180 - 126[/tex]=> [tex]2x = 54[/tex]

Divide 2 both sides:

=> [tex]\frac{2x}{2} = \frac{54}{2}[/tex]=> [tex]x = 27[/tex]

This means that one angle is 27°. Let's find the other angle.

Finding the other angle:

[tex]27 + 126 = Other \space\ angle[/tex]=> [tex]153 \space\ = Other \space\ angle[/tex]

Thus, the measure of the angles are 27° and 153°.

Answer:

27° and 153°

Step-by-step explanation:

Let "x" represent the angle.

We know that supplementary angles must add up to 180 degrees.

First, let's set up an expression for the supplement of the angle "x":

x+126

Now, let's use this information to set up an equation:

[tex]x+x+126=180[/tex]

Combine like terms:

[tex]2x+126=180[/tex]

Subtract 126 from both sides:

[tex]2x=54[/tex]

Divide both sides by 2

[tex]x=27[/tex]

The supplement would be:

[tex]x+126=27+126=153[/tex]

Therefore the measures of the two angles are:

27° and 153°

The sum of two numbers is 30
and their quotient is 2

What are the two numbers?

Answers

Answer:

The numbers are 20 and 10.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's say these teo numbers are x and y.

The sum of two numbers is 30

x + y = 30
Isolate y
y = 30 - x

Their quotient is 2
plug the newfound y value in the second equation.

x / y = 2

[tex]\frac{x}{30-x} = 2[/tex]

multiply both sides by (30 - x) to get rid of the fraction.

x = 2(30 - x)

x = 60 - 2x

x + 2x = 60 + 2x

3x = 60

dividie both sides by 3

x = 20

find y

y = 30 - x

y = 30 - 20 = 10
y = 10

The numbers are 20 and 10.

Answer:

10 and 20.

Step-by-step explanation:

x + y = 30

x/y = 2

x = 2y so substituting in the first equation:

2y + y = 30

y = 10

and  x + y =30

so x + 10 = 30  giving x = 20.

Consider the line y= −2/9x-7. Find the equation of the line that is perpendicular to this line and passes through the point , (2, 3) Find the equation of the line that is parallel to this line and passes through the point , (2,3).

Answers

keeping in mind that perpendicular lines have negative reciprocal slopes, let's check for the slope of the equation above

[tex]y=\stackrel{\stackrel{m}{\downarrow }}{-\cfrac{2}{9}} x-7\qquad \impliedby \qquad \begin{array}{|c|ll} \cline{1-1} slope-intercept~form\\ \cline{1-1} \\ y=\underset{y-intercept}{\stackrel{slope\qquad }{\stackrel{\downarrow }{m}x+\underset{\uparrow }{b}}} \\\\ \cline{1-1} \end{array}[/tex]

so then we can say that

[tex]\stackrel{~\hspace{5em}\textit{perpendicular lines have \underline{negative reciprocal} slopes}~\hspace{5em}} {\stackrel{slope}{-\cfrac{2}{9}} ~\hfill \stackrel{reciprocal}{-\cfrac{9}{2}} ~\hfill \stackrel{negative~reciprocal}{-\left( -\cfrac{9}{2} \right)\implies \cfrac{9}{2}}}[/tex]

so we're really looking for the equation of a line whos slope is 9/2 and passes through (2 , 3)

[tex](\stackrel{x_1}{2}~,~\stackrel{y_1}{3})\qquad \qquad \stackrel{slope}{m}\implies \cfrac{9}{2} \\\\\\ \begin{array}{|c|ll} \cline{1-1} \textit{point-slope form}\\ \cline{1-1} \\ y-y_1=m(x-x_1) \\\\ \cline{1-1} \end{array}\implies y-\stackrel{y_1}{3}=\stackrel{m}{\cfrac{9}{2}}(x-\stackrel{x_1}{2}) \\\\\\ y-3=\cfrac{9}{2}x-9\implies \boxed{y=\cfrac{9}{2}x-6}[/tex]

now as far as the parallel line

keeping in mind that parallel lines have exactly the same slope, so we're really looking for the equation of a line whose slope is -2/9 and passes through (2 , 3)

[tex](\stackrel{x_1}{2}~,~\stackrel{y_1}{3})\qquad \qquad \stackrel{slope}{m}\implies -\cfrac{2}{9} \\\\\\ \begin{array}{|c|ll} \cline{1-1} \textit{point-slope form}\\ \cline{1-1} \\ y-y_1=m(x-x_1) \\\\ \cline{1-1} \end{array}\implies y-\stackrel{y_1}{3}=\stackrel{m}{-\cfrac{2}{9}}(x-\stackrel{x_1}{2}) \\\\\\ y-3=-\cfrac{2}{9}x+\cfrac{4}{9}\implies y=-\cfrac{2}{9}x+\cfrac{4}{9}+3\implies \boxed{y=-\cfrac{2}{9}x+\cfrac{31}{9}}[/tex]
