Answer: 210

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : The number of flags available = 7

The number of flags required = 3

Since for the arrangement of flags , the order matters.

So we apply permutation to find the number of possible signals.

The number of possible signals of 7 flags taking 3 at a time is given by :-

^7P_3=\dfrac{7!}{(7-3)!}=\dfrac{7\times6\times5\times4!}{4!}=210

Hence, the number of possible signals of 7 flags taking 3 at a time is  210

A bakery sells rolls in units of a dozen. The demand X (in 1000 units) for rolls has a gamma distribution with parameters α = 3,
bearhunter [10]

Answer:

The value  is  E(X) =  \$ 1.7067

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question we are told that

   The  parameters  are  α = 3, θ = 0.5

    The cost of making a unit on the first day  is  c = $2

    The selling price of a  unit on the first day is  s = $5

    The selling price of a leftover unit on the second day is  v  = $ 1

Generally the profit of a unit on the first day is

        p_1 = 5 - 2

           p_1 = \$3

The profit of a unit on the second day is

       p_2 = 1 - 2

=>     p_2 = - \$1

Generally the probability of making profit greater than $ 1 is mathematically represented as

    P(X >  1 ) = Gamma (X ,\alpha , \theta)

=>   P(X >  1 ) = Gamma (1 ,3 , 0.5)

Now from the gamma distribution table  we have that

    P(X >  1 ) =  0.67668

Generally the probability of making profit less than or  equal to  $ 1 is mathematically represented as

       P(X \le  1 ) = 1 - P(X >  1 )

=>     P(X \le  1 ) = 1 - 0.67668

=>     P(X \le  1 ) = 0.32332    

So  the probability of making  $3  is    P(X >  1 ) =  0.67668

and  the probability of making  -$1  is   P(X \le  1 ) = 0.32332  

Generally the value of profit per day is mathematically represented as

      E(X) =  3 *  P(X >  1 )   +   (-1  *  P(X \le 1 ) )

=>     E(X) =  3 * 0.67668   +   (-1  *  0.32332 )

=>     E(X) =  \$ 1.7067

A volleyball player sets the ball in the air, and the height of the ball after t seconds is given in feet by h= -16^2+12t+6. A t
pychu [463]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The given function is

h=-16t^2+12t+6

The graph of this function is a parabola that opens downwards

The line h(t)=8 intersects this parabola, when

t=0.5,t=0.25

The teammate can spike the ball after 0.25 seconds or 0.5 seconds.

The two solutions are reasonable. When the volleyball is accelerating into the air, it passes a height of 8 after 0.25 seconds.

When the ball is dropping after it attains maximum height, it attains another height of 8 after 0.5 seconds again.
