Answer:

Cost price of each cup = 1500/6 = 250

Selling price of each cup = 1650/5 = 330

Step-by-step explanation:

Cost price of cups = 1500

Profit = 10%

Selling price of cups = ?

Profit and loss percentage are calculated based on cost price and the formula to calculate profit is mentioned as under:

Profit percentage (%) = Profit x 100/Cost price

10 = Profit x 100/1500

⇒ Profit = 10 x 1500/100

⇒ Profit = 150

The formula for finding selling price is mentioned as under:

Selling Price = Profit + Cost Price.

Selling Price = 150 + 1500

⇒ Selling Price = 1650.

Since one of the six cups was broken that means the seller earned profit based on only 5 cups, it implies that selling price of each cup will be 1650/5 = 330.

The measures in the table describe the weights of animals that visited a vet on one day, in pounds. Mean Median Mode Mean Absolu
MrMuchimi

Answer: On average, the weight of a pet visiting this vet on this day is about 2.4 pounds away from 12.9 pounds.

If the MAD of weights for another day was 1.5, then that day's weights would be less variable than the weights of pets seen on this day.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: The measures in the table describe the weights of animals that visited a vet on one day, in pounds.

Mean = 12.9

Median= 12.0

Mode = 12.0

Mean Absolute Deviation = 2.4

We know that the mean absolute deviation (MAD) of a data set is the mean distance between each and every data value and the mean.It tells about the variation in a data set.

Therefore, On average, the weight of a pet visiting this vet on this day is about 2.4 pounds away from 12.9 pounds.

Also, If the MAD of weights for another day was 1.5, and since 1.5< 2.4.

Then that day's weights would be less variable than the weights of pets seen on this day.

we know that 4 25's =100 and 294 is roughly 300

Which equation finds the volume of a cube with a side length of 2 n Superscript 6 units?
elena-14-01-66 [18.8K]

Answer:

Volume of the cube: 8n^{18}

Step-by-step explanation:

A cube is a solid figure consisting of 6 squared faces arranged in a structure at right angle with each other.

The volume of a cube is given by:

V=L^3

where

V is the volume

L is the length of one side of the cube

In this problem, the length of the side of the cube is

L=2n^6

Therefore, the volume of the cube is

V=(2n^6)^3 = 2^3 (n^6)^3 = 8n^{18}

A construction company is considering submitting bids for contracts of three different projects. The company estimates that it h
julsineya [31]

Answer:

a.P(x)=\frac{n!}{x!(n-x)!}*p^{x}*(1-p)^{n-x}\\

b. E(x) = 0.3

c. S(x)=0.5196

d. E=5,000

Step-by-step explanation:

The probability that the company won x bids follows a binomial distribution because we have n identical and independent experiments with a probability p of success and (1-p) of fail.

So, the PMF of X is equal to:

P(x)=\frac{n!}{x!(n-x)!}*p^{x}*(1-p)^{n-x}\\

Where p is 0.1 and it is the chance of winning. Additionally, n is 3 and it is the number of bids. So the PMF of X is:

P(x)=\frac{3!}{x!(3-x)!}*0.1^{x}*(1-0.1)^{n-x}\\

For binomial distribution:

E(x)=np\\S(x)=\sqrt{np(1-p)}

Therefore, the company can expect to win 0.3 bids and it is calculated as:

E(x) = np = 3*0.1 = 0.3

Additionally, the standard deviation of the number of bids won is:

S(x)=\sqrt{np(1-p)}=\sqrt{3(0.1)(1-0.1)}=0.5196

Finally, the probability to won 1, 2 or 3 bids is equal to:

P(1)=\frac{3!}{1!(3-1)!}*0.1^{1}*(1-0.1)^{3-1}=0.243\\P(2)=\frac{3!}{2!(3-2)!}*0.1^{2}*(1-0.1)^{3-2}=0.027\\P(3)=\frac{3!}{3!(3-3)!}*0.1^{3}*(1-0.1)^{3-3}=0.001

So, the expected profit for the company is equal to:

E=-10,000+50,000(0.243)+100,000(0.027)+150,000(0.001)\\E=5,000

Because there is a probability of 0.243 to win one bid and it will produce 50,000 of income, there is a probability of 0.027 to win 2 bids and it will produce 100,000 of income and there is a probability of 0.001 to win 3 bids and it will produce 150,000 of income.
