Answer:

$\bold {3.25+5.50S \le 30}$ is the correct answer.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that

Chocolate milk already ordered for the cost of $3.25.

Maximum bill that Benjamin wants = $30

Cost of a stack pancake = $5.50

Number of stacks of pancakes bought = S

It is given that all the money available is to be spent on 1 chocolate milk and S number of stacks of pancakes.

Cost of 1 pancake = $5.50

Cost of S number of stacks of pancakes = $\text{Number of stacks of pancakes} \times \text{Cost of each pancake}$

i.e. $S \times 5.50 = 5.50S$

So, total money spent = $3.25+5.50S

Now, this money should be lesser than or equal to $30 because maximum bill that Benjamin wants is $30.

So, the inequality can be written as:

$\bold{3.25+5.50S \le 30}$

IgorC [24]

Answer:

The expected value can be calculated as:

Es = x₁*p₁ + x₂*p2 + .....

where xₙ is the event (the amount of money that you win or lose, and pₙ is the probability for the event)

for example, in a 10 side dice, the probability of obtaining a specific number is 1/10.

we have a d10 i guess (a dice with 10 sides, 1 to 10)

if you roll from 1 to 7, nothing happens.

If you roll an 8, you lose $1500

if you roll a 9, you lose $75

if you roll a 10, you lose $2000 (and the game)

the expected value is,

Es = 1/10*(7*0 - 1*$1500 - 1*$75 - 1*$2000) = -$357

in the second case, you start paying $500.

if you roll a 7, you must pay $1000, if else, nothing happens.

Then the expected value is

Es = -$500 - 1/10*(-1*$1000 + 9*$0) = -$600

So the expected value is smaller in this case, so the deal is not fair

Six teachers and 12 students volunteer for a committee to discuss extra-curricular activities. How many committees of 5 people c

Alex17521 [72]

Answer:

a) $X=3300$

b) $Y=7770$

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question we are told that:

Number Teachers $T=6$

Number Student $S=12$

Number in committee $n=5$

a) Generally the equation for exactly 3 students on the committee is mathematically given by

$X=^{S}C_3*^{T}C_3$

$X=^{12}C_3*^{6}C_3$

$X=3300$

b) Generally the equation for at least one teacher and at least one student on the committee is mathematically given by

Total Ways-(no of ways of selection no teacher or student)

Where total Ways

$T=^{(6+12)}C_5$

$T=8568$

Therefore

$Y=8568-^{6}C_0*^{12}C_5+^{12}C_0*^{6}C_5$

$Y=8568-798$

$Y=7770$

Unoccupied seats on flights cause airlines to lose revenue. Suppose a large airline wants to estimate its average number of unoc

Answer:

We need a sample size of at least 719

Step-by-step explanation:

We have that to find our $\alpha$ level, that is the subtraction of 1 by the confidence interval divided by 2. So:

$\alpha = \frac{1-0.95}{2} = 0.025$

Now, we have to find z in the Ztable as such z has a pvalue of $1-\alpha$ .

So it is z with a pvalue of $1-0.025 = 0.975$ , so $z = 1.96$

Now, find the margin of error M as such

$M = z*\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}$

In which $\sigma$ is the standard deviation of the population and n is the size of the sample.

How large a sample size is required to vary population mean within 0.30 seat of the sample mean with 95% confidence interval?

This is at least n, in which n is found when $M = 0.3, \sigma = 4.103$ . So

$M = z*\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}$

$0.3 = 1.96*\frac{4.103}{\sqrt{n}}$

$0.3\sqrt{n} = 1.96*4.103$

$\sqrt{n} = \frac{1.96*4.103}{0.3}$

$(\sqrt{n})^{2} = (\frac{1.96*4.103}{0.3})^{2}$

$n = 718.57$

if the number of times spun is not a multiple of 8, it is impossible to land on an exactly even distribution for this spinner. But since the probabilities of landing on an exactly even distribution are so small, that detail doesn't perturb the overall trend, except perhaps down at n=8 spins So group 3
