Answer:

The price elasticity of demand is -10

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

[tex]p_1,p_2 = 50,40[/tex]

[tex]q_1,q_2 = 400,500[/tex]

Solving (a): The coefficient of price elasticity of demand (k)

This is calculated as:

[tex]k = \frac{\triangle q}{\triangle p}[/tex]

So, we have:

[tex]k = \frac{500 - 400}{40 - 50}[/tex]

[tex]k = \frac{100}{-10}[/tex]

[tex]k = -10[/tex]

Because |k| > 0, then we can conclude that the company made a wise decision.

Answer:

25 goat and 15 chicken

Step-by-step explanation:

Say the number of goats is G, then the number of chickens is 40 - G as there are 40 heads and each chicken and each goat has one head.

The number of feet is 130

So 2(40 - G) + 4G = 130

So 80 - 2G + 4G = 130

2G = 50

G = 25

25 goats and 15 chickens

Answer:

[tex]m = 12[/tex]

[tex]n =3[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

[tex]P(x) = x^3 + mx^2 - nx - 10[/tex]

Required

The values of m and n

For x - 1;

we have:

[tex]x - 1 = 0[/tex]

[tex]x=1[/tex]

So:

[tex]P(1) = (1)^3 + m*(1)^2 - n*(1) - 10[/tex]

[tex]P(1) = 1 + m*1 - n*1 - 10[/tex]

[tex]P(1) = 1 + m - n - 10[/tex]

Collect like terms

[tex]P(1) = m - n + 1 - 10[/tex]

[tex]P(1) = m - n -9[/tex]

Because x - 1 divides the polynomial, then P(1) = 0;

So, we have:

[tex]m - n -9 = 0[/tex]

Add 9 to both sides

[tex]m - n = 9[/tex] --- (1)

For x + 2;

we have:

[tex]x + 2 = 0[/tex]

[tex]x = -2[/tex]

So:

[tex]P(-2) = (-2)^3 + m*(-2)^2 - n*(-2) - 10[/tex]

[tex]P(-2) = -8 + 4m + 2n - 10[/tex]

Collect like terms

[tex]P(-2) = 4m + 2n - 10 - 8[/tex]

[tex]P(-2) = 4m + 2n - 18[/tex]

x + 2 leaves a remainder of 36, means that P(-2) = 36;

So, we have:

[tex]4m + 2n - 18 = 36[/tex]

Collect like terms

[tex]4m + 2n = 36+18[/tex]

[tex]4m + 2n = 54[/tex]

Divide through by 2

[tex]2m + n=27[/tex] --- (2)

Add (1) and (2)

[tex]m + 2m - n + n = 9 +27[/tex]

[tex]3m =36[/tex]

Divide by 3

[tex]m = 12[/tex]

Substitute [tex]m = 12[/tex] in (1)

[tex]m - n =9[/tex]

Make n the subject

[tex]n = m - 9[/tex]

[tex]n = 12 - 9[/tex]

[tex]n =3[/tex]

The value of a when the function f(x) = 3|xl is written in the standard form of an absolute value function is 3.

An absolute function is defined as a function which consists of an algebraic expression that is within absolute value symbols.

Here,

The standard form of the absolute value function is written by,

f(x) = a|x|

Given that,

f(x) = 3|x|

Comparing this with the standard form, we get,

a|x| = 3|x|

Therefore, a = 3

Hence,

The value of a when the function f(x) = 3|xl is written in the standard form of an absolute value function is 3.

Answer:

1.  e. Convenience sampling is used because students are chosen due to convenience of location.

2. a. University students may not be representative of all people in their age group.

Step-by-step explanation:

Samples may be classified as:

Convenient: Sample drawn from a conveniently available pool.

Random: Basically, put all the options into a hat and drawn some of them.

Systematic: Every kth element is taken. For example, you want to survey something on the street, you interview every 5th person, for example.

Cluster: Divides population into groups, called clusters, and each element in the cluster is surveyed.

Stratified: Also divides the population into groups. However, then only some elements of the group are surveyed.

Questioning students as they leave an academic building, a researcher asks 341 students about their eating habits.

Students sampled as they leave the build, which is convenience, in this case convenience of location, which means that the correct answer to question 1 is given by option e.

2. What potential sources of bias are present if any. Select all that apply.

Only members of one group are asked(university students), and this may not be representative of the rest of the population, which means that the correct answer to question 2 is given by option a.

Answer:

Amount left is 941.95 g.

Step-by-step explanation:

initial amount = 1000 g

time = 10 years

amount left =  980 grams

Now

[tex]980 = 1000 e^{-\lambda t}\\\\e^{\lambda\times 10}= 1.02\\\\10 \lambda = ln 1.02\\\\\lambda = 1.98\times10^{-3} per year[/tex]

time t = 20 years

Let the amount is N.

[tex]980 = 1000 e^{-\lambda t}\\\\e^{\lambda\times 10}= 1.02\\\\10 \lambda = ln 1.02\\\\\lambda = 1.98\times10^{-3} per year\\N = 980 e^{- 1.98\times 10^{-3}\times 20}\\\\ln N = ln 980 - 0.0396\\\\ln N = 6.88 - 0.0396 = 6.86\\\\N = 941.95 g[/tex]

Answer:

0.1512 = 15.12% probability that fewer than four tornadoes occur in a three-week period.

Step-by-step explanation:

In a Poisson distribution, the probability that X represents the number of successes of a random variable is given by the following formula:

[tex]P(X = x) = \frac{e^{-\mu}*\mu^{x}}{(x)!}[/tex]

In which

x is the number of sucesses

e = 2.71828 is the Euler number

[tex]\mu[/tex] is the mean in the given interval.

In a given region, the number of tornadoes in a one-week period is modeled by a Poisson distribution with mean 2

Three weeks, so [tex]\mu = 2*3 = 6[/tex]

Calculate the probability that fewer than four tornadoes occur in a three-week period.

This is:

[tex]P(X < 4) = P(X = 0) + P(X = 1) + P(X = 2) + P(X = 3)[/tex]

In which

[tex]P(X = x) = \frac{e^{-\mu}*\mu^{x}}{(x)!}[/tex]

[tex]P(X = 0) = \frac{e^{-6}*6^{0}}{(0)!} = 0.0025[/tex]

[tex]P(X = 1) = \frac{e^{-6}*6^{1}}{(1)!} = 0.0149[/tex]

[tex]P(X = 2) = \frac{e^{-6}*6^{2}}{(2)!} = 0.0446[/tex]

[tex]P(X = 3) = \frac{e^{-6}*6^{3}}{(3)!} = 0.0892[/tex]

Then

[tex]P(X < 4) = P(X = 0) + P(X = 1) + P(X = 2) + P(X = 3) = 0.0025 + 0.0149 + 0.0446 + 0.0892 = 0.1512[/tex]

0.1512 = 15.12% probability that fewer than four tornadoes occur in a three-week period.

Answer:

jonny is the winner.

Step-by-step explanation:

No. of wins harry has = 0.4

No. of wins krish has = 0.2

No. of wins jonny has = 0.3

To find the prbability of harry and jonny = 0.4 + 0.3

                                                                  =  0.7

Now to see who wins we have to add krish's wins and harry's win, because harry has the greatest number of wins.

krish = 0.2

harry = 0.4

        =  0.6

now we have all three's score, so we will now see which is the greatest number.

krish= 0.6

harry = 0.4

jonny = 0.7

The greatest number is 0.7.

Hence, jonny is the winner!

Answer:

The volume (density) of cement that will be needed to cover this hollow pipe is:

= 50,000 kg/m³

Step-by-step explanation:

Length of a cylindrical pipe = 5m

Width of the cylindrical pipe = 4m

Depth of the cylindrical pipe = 2.5m

The cubic meters of the cylindrical pipe = 5 * 4 * 2.5 = 50m³

1 cubic meter is equal to 1,000 kilogram

Therefore, the volume (density) of cement that will be needed to cover this hollow pipe is:

= 50 * 1,000

= 50,000 kg/m³

Answer:

a. The mean is 3, the variance is 2.25 and the standard deviation is 1.5.

b. 0.0401 = 4.01% probability that the number of people who own individual stocks is exactly six.

c. 0.1584 = 15.84% probability that the number of people who say they own individual stocks is at least two.

d. 0.3907 = 39.07% probability that the number of people who say they own individual stocks is at most two

e. Both cases include one common outcome, that is, 2 people owning stocks, so the events are not mutually exclusive.

Step-by-step explanation:

For each person, there are only two possible outcomes. Either they own stocks, or they do not. The probability of a person owning stocks is independent of any other person, which means that the binomial probability distribution is used to solve this question.

Binomial probability distribution

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

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

In which [tex]C_{n,x}[/tex] is the number of different combinations of x objects from a set of n elements, given by the following formula.

[tex]C_{n,x} = \frac{n!}{x!(n-x)!}[/tex]

And p is the probability of X happening.

One in four people in the US owns individual stocks.

This means that [tex]p = \frac{1}{4} = 0.25[/tex]

You randomly select 12 people and ask them if they own individual stocks.

This means that [tex]n = 12[/tex]

a. Find the mean, variance, and standard deviation of the resulting probability distribution.

The mean of the binomial distribution is:

[tex]E(X) = np[/tex]

So

[tex]E(X) = 12(0.25) = 3[/tex]

The variance is:

[tex]V(X) = np(1-p)[/tex]

So

[tex]V(X) = 12(0.25)(0.75) = 2.25[/tex]

Standard deviation is the square root of the variance, so:

[tex]\sqrt{V(X)} = \sqrt{2.25} = 1.5[/tex]

The mean is 3, the variance is 2.25 and the standard deviation is 1.5.

b. Find the probability that the number of people who own individual stocks is exactly six.

This is P(X = 6). So

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

[tex]P(X = 6) = C_{12,6}.(0.25)^{6}.(0.75)^{6} = 0.0401[/tex]

0.0401 = 4.01% probability that the number of people who own individual stocks is exactly six.

c. Find probability that the number of people who say they own individual stocks is at least two.

This is:

[tex]P(X \geq 2) = 1 - P(X < 2)[/tex]

In which

[tex]P(X < 2) = P(X = 0) + P(X = 1)[/tex]

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

[tex]P(X = 0) = C_{12,0}.(0.25)^{0}.(0.75)^{12} = 0.0317[/tex]

[tex]P(X = 1) = C_{12,1}.(0.25)^{1}.(0.75)^{11} = 0.1267[/tex]

[tex]P(X < 2) = P(X = 0) + P(X = 1) = 0.0317 + 0.1267 = 0.1584[/tex]

0.1584 = 15.84% probability that the number of people who say they own individual stocks is at least two.

d. Find the probability that the number of people who say they own individual stocks is at most two.

This is:

[tex]P(X \leq 2) = P(X = 0) + P(X = 1) + P(X = 2)[/tex]

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

[tex]P(X = 0) = C_{12,0}.(0.25)^{0}.(0.75)^{12} = 0.0317[/tex]

[tex]P(X = 1) = C_{12,1}.(0.25)^{1}.(0.75)^{11} = 0.1267[/tex]

[tex]P(X = 2) = C_{12,2}.(0.25)^{2}.(0.75)^{10} = 0.2323[/tex]

[tex]P(X \leq 2) = P(X = 0) + P(X = 1) + P(X = 2) = 0.0317 + 0.1267 + 0.2323 = 0.3907[/tex]

0.3907 = 39.07% probability that the number of people who say they own individual stocks is at most two.

e. Are the events in part c. and in part d. mutually exclusive

Both cases include one common outcome, that is, 2 people owning stocks, so the events are not mutually exclusive.
