Answer:

C = 75 + 0.17x and R = 2x

2x - (75 + 0.17x) > 0

x ≥ 41

Step-by-step explanation:

The cost to make the cupcakes is a fixed $75 plus $0.17 per cupcakes made and the selling price of each cupcake is $2.00.

Part A: Now, the equation for the cost, C, for making x cupcakes is  

C = 75 + 0.17x ......... (1)

Again the equation for the revenue, R, from selling x cupcakes is

R = 2x ............ (2)

Part B: So, the inequality that could be solved to find the number of cupcakes, x, that must be made and sold to make a profit is  

R - C > 0

2x - (75 + 0.17x) > 0 ......... (3)

Part C: Solving inequality (3) we get

(2 - 0.17)x > 75

⇒ x > 40.98

⇒ x ≥ 41 {Since, x can not be a fraction}

The heights of students at a college are normally distributed with a mean of 175 cm and a standard deviation of 6 cm. One might
frosja888 [35]

Answer:

25

Step-by-step explanation:

The Empirical Rule states that, for a normally distributed random variable:

68% of the measures are within 1 standard deviation of the mean.

95% of the measures are within 2 standard deviation of the mean.

99.7% of the measures are within 3 standard deviations of the mean.

In this problem, we have that:

Mean = 175cm

Standard deviation = 6 cm

Percentage of students below 163 cm

163 = 175 - 2*6

So 163 is two standard deviations below the mean.

By the Empirical rule, 95% of the heights are within 2 standard deviations of the mean. The other 100-95 = 5% are more than 2 standard deviations of the mean. Since the normal distribution is symmetric, 2.5% of them are more than 2 standard deviations below the mean(so below 163cm) and 2.5% are more than two standard deviations above the mean.

2.5% of the students have heights less than 163cm.

Out of 1000

0.025*1000 = 25

25 is the answer

Identify the equation of the circle that has its center at (10, 24) and passes through the origin.
marishachu [46]

Answer:

A )  The Equation of the circle (x−10)2+(y−24)2=676

Step-by-step explanation:

step1:-

The equation of the circle whose center is (a,b) and radius r is

(x-a)^{2} +(y-b)^{2} =r^{2}

(x-10)^{2}+(y-24)^{2}  =676

in this circle equation centre is (g,f) = (10,24)

and formula of radius of a circle is

r = \sqrt{g^{2}+f^{2} -c }

Step2:-

The Equation of the circle (x−10)^2+(y−24)^2=676

Mr. Malloy wants to make sure Amo and Javier get the best possible grade after five tests and can either give a grade based on t
joja [24]
The data has been properly arranged in tabular form and is shown below in the image.

First we need to find the mean and median of scores of both students.

1) For Amo:
Mean = \frac{97+92+89+55+90}{5}=84.6
Median = Middle Value when data is arranged in ascending order = 90

2) For Javier:
Mean =\frac{68+97+65+92+95}{5}=83.4
Median = Middle Value when data is arranged in ascending order = 92

For both the students, value of Median is larger then the mean. So in order to give the best possible grade Mr. Malloy should use the median score for both students.

Kayla has decided to paint the ceiling in the living room. She has 1/30 gallon of paint left. The living room ceiling will take
ella [17]
So the ceiling takes 5/6 gallon to paint. We know that you already have 1/30 gallon and another gallon in addition to that. We must convert the 5/6 into ?/30 so we can see how much we need to use. So if we convert 5/6 to out of 30, we get 25/30. So the first can has 1/30 gallon so we subtract that amount from the total paint needed. So now we only need 24/30 gallon to paint the ceiling. If we subtract that amount needed from the full (30/30) can we have left, that will give us the remaining amount of paint we have left. 30/30-24/30= 6/30. This reduces to 1/5. So there is 1/5 gallon of paint left over after painting the ceiling.
