Which statement is true:

a) Jill will make less money if they each work 4 hours.

b) Jill's hourly rate is $3 more than kara's.

c) Kara charges $14 and hour for babysitting two children.

d) Kara's fee for the second child is $5.

Answer:

(D)Kara's fee for the second child is $5.

Step-by-step explanation:

$\left|\begin{array}{c|c|c}$Time(hr)&$Jill: Cost for Two Children& $Kara: Cost for Two Children\\-----&------&-----\\1&11&14=9+5\\2&22&23=9(2)+5\\3&33&32=9(3)+5\end{array}\right|$

From the table above,

Jill Charges an hourly rate of $11

Kara charges an hourly rate of $9 and an additional $5 charge for more than one child. Therefore, the statement that is true is Option D.

Kara's fee for the second child is $5.

All other options are incorrect.

Check

Option A: In four hours, Jill will make $44 while Kara will make $41

Option B: Jill's hourly rate is $2 more than Kara's, NOT $3.

Option C: Kara charges $9 an hour, NOT $14.

To add, the null hypothesis is rejected if the p-value is less than a predetermined level, α. α is called the significance level, and is the probability of rejecting the null hypothesis given that it is true (a type I error). It is usually set at or below 5%.

Tony wants to plant no more than 400 acres of corn and soybeans. He earns $300 per acre of soybeans and $200 for corn. He needs

inna [77]

In this item, we let x be the number of corns and Y represent soybeans. The sum of these variables is 400. This is represented by the equation,
x + y = 400
The amount that needs to be earn by Tony is then represented by,
200x + 300y ≥ $60,000

Let X represent the amount of time until the next student will arrive in the library parking lot at the university. If we know t

Ber [7]

Answer:

The probability that it will take more than 10 minutes for the next student to arrive at the library parking lot is 0.0821.

Step-by-step explanation:

The random variable X is defined as the amount of time until the next student will arrive in the library parking lot at the university.

The random variable X follows an Exponential distribution with mean, μ = 4 minutes.

The probability density function of X is:

$f_{X}(x)=\lambda e^{\lambda x};\ x\geq 0, \lambda >0$

The parameter of the exponential distribution is:

$\lambda=\frac{1}{\mu}=\frac{1}{4}=0.25$

Compute the value of P (X > 10) as follows:

$P(X>10)=\int\limits^{\infty}_{10}{0.25e^{-0.25x}}\, dx$

$=0.25\times \int\limits^{\infty}_{10}{e^{-0.25x}}\, dx\\=0.25\times |\frac{e^{0.25x}}{-0.25}|^{\infty}_{10}\\=(e^{-0.25\times \infty})-(e^{-0.25\times 10})\\=0.0821$

Thus, the probability that it will take more than 10 minutes for the next student to arrive at the library parking lot is 0.0821.
