Recall the scenario about Eric's weekly wages in the lesson practice section. Eric's boss have been very impressed with his work

. He has given him a $2 raise and now Eric earns $12 an hour. His boss also has increased Eric's hours to 10 to 25 hours per week. The restrictions remain the same; he needs to work a full-hour in order to get the hourly wage working 1.5 hour does not pay him for 1.5 hours but for one hour. Tasks: Consider the scenario and restrictions and interpret the work hour and potential earning relation as a function. Express the relation in the following formats: 1. Function equation 2. Domain of the function in the set notation (Would domain (work hours) be infinite?(write the domain in the set notation) 3. Range of the function in the set notation (Would the range (weekly wage) be infinite(write the range in the set notation) 4. Sketch the function and plot the points for his earnings.

Answer:

$1)\quad f(x)=\bigg\{\begin{array}{ll}12x&0\leq x$

2) D: x = [0, 24]

3) R: y = [0, 384]

4) see graph

<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>

Eric's regular wage is $12 per hour for all hours less than 9 hours.

The minimum number of hours Eric can work each day is 0.

f(x) = 12x for 0 ≤ x < 9

Eric's overtime wage is $18 per hour for 9 hours and greater.

The maximum number of hours Eric can work each day is 24 (because there are only 24 hours in a day).

f(x) = 18(x - 8) + 12(8)

= 18x - 144 + 96

= 18x - 48 for 9 ≤ x ≤ 24

The daily wage where x represents the number of hours worked can be displayed in function format as follows:

$f(x)=\bigg\{\begin{array}{ll}12x&0\leq x$

2) Domain represents the x-values (number of hours Eric can work).

The minimum hours he can work in one day is 0 and the maximum he can work in one day is 24.

D: 0 ≤ x ≤ 24 → D: x = [0, 24]

3) Range represents the y-values (wage Eric will earn).

Eric's wage depends on the number of hours he works. Use the Domain (given above) to find the wage.

The minimum hours he can work in one day is 0.

f(x) = 12x

f(0) = 12(0)

= 0

The maximum hours he can work in one day is 24 <em>(although unlikely, it is theoretically possible).</em>

f(x) = 18x - 48

f(24) = 18(24) - 48

= 432 - 48

= 384

D: 0 ≤ y ≤ 384 → D: x = [0, 384]

4) see graph.

Notice that there is an open dot at x = 9 for f(x) = 12x

and a closed dot at x = 9 for f(x) = 18x - 48

The axis of the sphere below is 16 units in length. What is the surface area of the sphere?.

Nataly_w [17]

There are enough information's already given in the question. Based on those information's that answer can be easily deduced.
Radius of the sphere = 8 units
Then
Surface area of the sphere = 4 *pi * r^2
= 4 * pi * (8)^2
= 4 * pi * 64
= 256pi
I hope that this answer has come to your help.

What is the probability of drawing yellow marble followed by a red marble from a bag containing 12 yellow marbles, 16 red marble

boyakko [2]

Option B

Probability of drawing yellow marble followed by a red marble is $\frac{32}{301}$

<em><u>Solution:</u></em>

Given that a bag containing 12 yellow marbles, 16 red marbles, and 15 green marbles

So total number of marbles = 12 + 16 + 15 = 43

To find: probability of drawing yellow marble followed by a red marble if the first marble is not replaced

<em><u>The probability of an event is given as:</u></em>

$probability =\frac{\text { number of favorable outcomes }}{\text { total number of possible outcomes }}$$

<em><u>probability of drawing yellow marble followed by a red marble if the first marble is not replaced:</u></em>

First we pick up yellow marble.

Number of favorable outcomes = 12 yellow marbles

Total number of possible outcomes = 43 marbles

$\text{ probability} = \frac{12}{43}$

Now we have to pick red marble

But first marble is not replaced

So we have 43 - 1 = 42 number of possible outcomes

Favorable outcomes = 16 red marbles

$\text{ probability} = \frac{16}{42}$

So probability of drawing yellow marble followed by a red marble is:

$\text[ probability } = \frac{12}{43} \times \frac{16}{42} = \frac{32}{301}$

Thus probability of drawing yellow marble followed by a red marble is $\frac{32}{301}$

An example problem in a Statistics textbook asked to find the probability of dying when making a skydiving jump.

MArishka [77]

Answer:

(a) 0.999664

(b) 15052

Step-by-step explanation:

From the given data of recent years, there were about 3,000,000 skydiving jumps and 21 of them resulted in deaths.

So, the probability of death is $\frac{21}{3000000}==0.000007$ .

Assuming, this probability holds true for each skydiving and does not change in the present time.

So, as every skydiving is an independent event having a fixed probability of dying and there are only two possibilities, the diver will either die or survive, so, all skydiving can be regarded as is Bernoulli's trial.

Denoting the probability of dying in a single jump by $q$ .

$q=7\times 10^{-6}=0.000007$ .

So, the probability of survive, $p=1-q$

$\Rightarrow p=1-7\times 10^{-6}=0.999993.$

(a) The total number of jump he made, n=48

Using Bernoulli's equation, the probability of surviving in exactly 48 jumps (r=48) out of 48 jumps (n=48) is

$=\binom(n,r)p^rq^{n-r}$

$=\binom(48,48)(0.999993)^{48}(0.000007)^{48-48}$

$=(0.999993)^{48}=0.999664$ (approx)

So, the probability of survive in 48 skydiving is 0.999664,

(b) The given probability of surviving =90%=0.9

Let, total $n$ skydiving jumps required to meet the surviving probability of 0.9.

So, By using Bernoulli's equation,

$0.9=\binom {n }{r} p^rq^{n-r}$

Here, r=n.

$\Rightarrow 0.9=\binom{n}{n}p^nq^{n-n}$

$\Rightarrow 0.9=p^n$

$\Rightarrow 0.9=(0.999993)^n$

$\Rightarrow \ln(0.9)=n\ln(0.999993)$ [ taking $\log_e$ both sides]

$\Rightarrow n=\frac {\ln(0.9)}{\ln(0.999993)}$

$\Rightarrow n=15051.45$

The number of diving cant be a fractional value, so bound it to the upper integral value.

Hence, the total number of skydiving required to meet the 90% probability of surviving is 15052.
