Ariana is a songwriter who collects royalties on her songs whenever they are played in a commercial or a movie. Arians will earn $40 every time one of her songs is played in a commercial and she will earn $110 every time one of her songs is played in a movie. Ariana earned a total of $500 in royalties on 9 commercials and movies. Write a system of equations that could be used to determine the number of commercials and the number of movies on which Arianas songs were played. Define the variables that you use to write the system.

Answers

Answer:

Commercials x = 7

Movies y = 2

Step-by-step explanation:

Let commercials = x

Let's movies = y

$40 is for commercials

$110 is for movies.

Commercials plus movies for the Year = 9

She earned total of $500

X+ y = 9..... equation 1

40x + 110y = 500.... Equation 2

Multipling equation one by 40

40x + 40y = 360

Subtracting equation one from equation 2

70y = 140

Y = 2

If y = 2

X + y = 9

X + 2 = 9

X = 9-2

X = 7

The city manager of Shinbone has received a complaint from the local union of firefighters to the effect that they are underpaid. Not having much time, the city manager gathers the records of a random sample of 27 firefighters and finds that their average salary is $38,073 with a standard deviation of $575. If she knows that the average salary nationally is $38,202, how can she respond to the complaint

Answers

Answer:

She can answer, after performing the hypothesis test, that there is not enough evidence to support the claim that the city firefighters salary is significantly lower than the national average.

Step-by-step explanation:

She can statistically test the claim of the firefighters to see if it has statistical evidence.

This is a hypothesis test for the population mean.

The claim is that the city firefighters salary is significantly lower than the national average.

Then, the null and alternative hypothesis are:

[tex]H_0: \mu=38202\\\\H_a:\mu< 38202[/tex]

The significance level is 0.1.  Is less conservative than 0.05, for example, so if there is little evidence, the null hypothesis with be rejected.

The sample has a size n=27.

The sample mean is M=38073.

As the standard deviation of the population is not known, we estimate it with the sample standard deviation, that has a value of s=575.

The estimated standard error of the mean is computed using the formula:

[tex]s_M=\dfrac{s}{\sqrt{n}}=\dfrac{575}{\sqrt{27}}=110.659[/tex]

Then, we can calculate the t-statistic as:

[tex]t=\dfrac{M-\mu}{s/\sqrt{n}}=\dfrac{38073-38202}{110.659}=\dfrac{-129}{110.659}=-1.17[/tex]

The degrees of freedom for this sample size are:

df=n-1=27-1=26

This test is a left-tailed test, with 26 degrees of freedom and t=-1.17, so the P-value for this test is calculated as (using a t-table):

[tex]\text{P-value}=P(t<-1.17)=0.127[/tex]

As the P-value (0.127) is bigger than the significance level (0.1), the effect is not significant.

The null hypothesis failed to be rejected.

There is not enough evidence to support the claim that the city firefighters salary is significantly lower than the national average.

If both computers shipped are refurbished, consequently the client will return both and cancel the order. As a result, Excell will be out any profit and left with RM8,000 in shipping cost. Let X be a random variable for the amount of the profit earned on the order.​

Answers

Answer:

$9215.24

Step-by-step explanation:

Total Number of Computers=15

Number of New=11

Number of Refurbished Computers=4

P(New)=11/15P(Refurbished)=4/15

[tex]P(NN)=\frac{11}{15} \times \frac{10}{14} = \frac{11}{21}\\P(NR)=\frac{11}{15} \times \frac{4}{14} = \frac{22}{105}\\P(RN)=\frac{4}{15} \times \frac{11}{14} = \frac{22}{105}\\P(RR)=\frac{4}{15} \times \frac{3}{14} = \frac{2}{35}[/tex]

The probability of one new and one refurbished =P(NR)+P(RN)

[tex]=\frac{22}{105}+ \frac{22}{105}\\=\frac{44}{105}[/tex]

Let X be the amount of profit earned on the purchase. The probability distribution of X is given as:

[tex]\left|\begin{array}{c|c|c|c|c}$Profit(X)& NN=\$10000 &NR=\$9600& RR=-\$800\\$P(X)&\dfrac{11}{21}&\dfrac{44}{105}&\dfrac{2}{35}\end{array}\right|[/tex]

(b) Expected Profit

[tex]\text{Expected Profit}=\sum X_iP(X_i)\\=(10000 \times \dfrac{11}{21}) +(9600 \times \dfrac{44}{105}) + (-800 \times \dfrac{2}{35})\\=\$9215.24[/tex]

The average profit of the store on the order is $9215.24.

In the United States, the mean and standard deviation of adult men's heights are 70 inches (5 feet 10 inches) and 4 inches, respectively. Suppose the American adult men's heights have a normal distribution Whe probability that a randomly chosen American man is taller than 6 feet (72 inches) is equal to:___________. (round off to fourth decimal place, use the given table)
a. 0.6853
b. 0.0062
c. 0.3085
d.0.6915
e. None of these

Answers

Answer:

[tex]P(X>72)=P(\frac{X-\mu}{\sigma}>\frac{72-\mu}{\sigma})=P(Z>\frac{72-70}{4})=P(z>0.5)[/tex]

And we can find this probability using the complement rule and the normal standard table:

[tex]P(z>0.5)=1-P(z<0.5)= 1- 0.69146= 0.3085[/tex]

And the best solution would be:

c. 0.3085

Step-by-step explanation:

For this case we can convert all the values to inches in order to standardize the solution:

[tex] 5ft * \frac{12 in}{1ft}= 60 in[/tex]

[tex] 6ft * \frac{12 in}{1ft}= 72 in[/tex]

Let X the random variable that represent the heights of US mens, and for this case we know the distribution for X is given by:

[tex]X \sim N(70,4)[/tex]  

Where [tex]\mu=70[/tex] and [tex]\sigma=4[/tex]

We are interested on this probability

[tex]P(X>72)[/tex]

We can use the z score formula given by:

[tex]z=\frac{x-\mu}{\sigma}[/tex]

Using this formula we got:

[tex]P(X>72)=P(\frac{X-\mu}{\sigma}>\frac{72-\mu}{\sigma})=P(Z>\frac{72-70}{4})=P(z>0.5)[/tex]

And we can find this probability using the complement rule and the normal standard table:

[tex]P(z>0.5)=1-P(z<0.5)= 1- 0.69146= 0.3085[/tex]

And the best solution would be:

c. 0.3085

Using the normal distribution, it is found that the probability that a randomly chosen American man is taller than 6 feet (72 inches) is equal to:

c. 0.3085

In a normal distribution with mean [tex]\mu[/tex] and standard deviation [tex]\sigma[/tex], the z-score of a measure X is given by:

[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}[/tex]

It measures how many standard deviations the measure is from the mean.  After finding the z-score, we look at the z-score table and find the p-value associated with this z-score, which is the percentile of X.

In this problem:

Mean of 70 inches, thus [tex]\mu = 70[/tex].Standard deviation of 4 inches, thus [tex]\sigma = 4[/tex].

The probability of being taller than 72 inches is 1 subtracted by the p-value of Z when X = 72, thus:

[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}[/tex]

[tex]Z = \frac{72 - 70}{4}[/tex]

[tex]Z = 0.5[/tex]

[tex]Z = 0.5[/tex] has a p-value of 0.6915.

1 - 0.6915 = 0.3085

Thus, option c.

f(x) = 9x4 – 7x2 + x + 10
f(x) = 10x4 – 7x2 + x + 9
f(x) = 25x4 – 7x2 + x + 4

Answers

Answer:

Neither expression satisfies the given rational root.

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the right answer, we just need to replace the given root in each expression and see which one gives zero.

First expression.

[tex]f(x)=4x^{4} -7x^{2} +x+25\\f(-\frac{2}{5})= 4(-\frac{2}{5})^{4} -7(-\frac{2}{5})^{2} +(-\frac{2}{5})+25=\frac{64}{625}-\frac{28}{25} -\frac{2}{5} +25 \approx 23.58[/tex]

Second expression.

[tex]f(x)=9x^{4}-7x^{2} +x+10=9(-\frac{2}{5} )^{4} -7(-\frac{2}{5} )^{2} +\frac{2}{5} +10 \approx 9.5[/tex]

Third expression.

[tex]f(x)=10x^{4}-7x^{2} +x+9=10(-\frac{2}{5} )^{4} -7(-\frac{2}{5})^{2} +(-\frac{2}{5})+9 \approx 7.7[/tex]

Fourth expression.

[tex]f(x)=25x^{4}-7x^{2} +x+4=25(-\frac{2}{5} )^{4} -7(-\frac{2}{5})^{2} +(-\frac{2}{5})+4 \approx 3.12[/tex]

Therefore, neither expression satisfies the given rational root.

Answers

Answer:

mean:12

Step-by-step explanation:

The population mean or sample mean as indicated in the given samples is 14

What is mean?

A mean in math is the average of a data set, found by adding all numbers together and then dividing the sum of the numbers by the number of numbers.

Mathematically,

Mean = Sum of the observations/number of observations

Now the given sample is,

17, 11, 8, 12, 22

So, Number of sample = 5

Thus, Mean = Sum of the sample /number of sample

Mean = (17 + 11 + 8 + 12 + 22) / 5

⇒ Mean = 70/5

⇒ Mean = 14

Thus, the population mean or sample mean as indicated in the given samples is 14

Borland, Inc., has a profit margin of 5.6 percent on sales of $13.6 million. If the firm has debt of $6.4 million and total assets of $9.8 million, what is the firm’s ROA?

Answers

Answer:

ROA = 7.77 percent

Step-by-step explanation:

Borland, Inc., has a profit margin of 5.6 percent on sales of $13.6 million

Thus, profit = 5.6% of  $13.6 million

profit = 5.6 / 100 *  $13.6 million = $0.7616 million

Profit is same as net income

Formula for ROA (return on asset) = net income/ total asset

total asset as given = $9.8 million

Thus, ROA = $0.7616/ $9.8 = 0.0777

ROA in percentage = 0.0777*100 = 7.77

Thus, ROA is 7.77 percent .

Alternate Hypothesis, [tex]H_A[/tex] : [tex]\mu[/tex] [tex]\neq[/tex] 23%     {means that the mean percentage is  different from 23 and the manufacturing process will be re-calibrated}

The test statistics that would be used here One-sample t-test statistics as we don't know about population standard deviation;

                                T.S. =  [tex]\frac{\bar X-\mu}{\frac{s}{\sqrt{n} } }[/tex]  ~ [tex]t_n_-_1[/tex]

where, [tex]\bar X[/tex] = sample mean percentage = 23.2

            s = sample standard deviation = 0.2

            n = sample of specimens = 10

So, the test statistics  =  [tex]\frac{23.2-23}{\frac{0.2}{\sqrt{10} } }[/tex]  ~ [tex]t_9[/tex]

                                     =  3.162

The value of t test statistic is 3.162.

Since, in the question we are not given with the level of significance so we assume it to be 5%. Now, at 5% significance level the t table gives critical value of -2.262 and 2.262 at 9 degree of freedom for two-tailed test.

(b) Since our test statistic doesn't lie within the range of critical values of t, so we have sufficient evidence to reject our null hypothesis as it will fall in the rejection region due to which we reject our null hypothesis.

Therefore, we conclude that the mean percentage is  different from 23 and the manufacturing process will be re-calibrated.

(c) The P-value of the test statistics is given by;

            P-value = P( [tex]t_9[/tex] > 3.162) = 0.006 or 0.6%

(a) Null Hypothesis,  [tex]H_o:\mu[/tex]: = 23%    

   Alternate Hypothesis, [tex]H_A:\mu\neq[/tex] : 23%

(b) We conclude that the mean percentage is  different from 23 and the manufacturing process will be re-calibrated.

(c) P-value is 0.6%.

What is a null hypothesis?

The hypothesis that there is no significant difference between specified populations, any observed difference being due to sampling or experimental error.

We are given that a certain manufactured product is supposed to contain 23% potassium by weight.

A sample of 10 specimens of this product had an average percentage of 23.2 with a standard deviation of 0.2.

Let  = mean percentage of potassium by weight.

(a) Null Hypothesis, [tex]H_o:\mu[/tex]:  = 23%      {means that the mean percentage is equal to 23 and the manufacturing process will not be re-calibrated}

Alternate Hypothesis,  [tex]H_A:\mu\neq[/tex]:   23%     {means that the mean percentage is  different from 23 and the manufacturing process will be re-calibrated}

The test statistics that would be used here One-sample t-test statistics as we don't know about population standard deviation;

[tex]TS=\dfrac{X-\mu}{\frac{s}{\sqrt{n}}}[/tex]   ~ [tex]t_{n-1}[/tex]

where,  = sample mean percentage = 23.2

           s = sample standard deviation = 0.2

           n = sample of specimens = 10

So, the test statistics  =   [tex]\dfrac{23.2-23}{\frac{0.2}{\sqrt{10}}}[/tex] ~ [tex]t_g[/tex]

                                    =  3.162

The value of t test statistic is 3.162.

Since, in the question we are not given with the level of significance so we assume it to be 5%. Now, at 5% significance level the t table gives critical value of -2.262 and 2.262 at 9 degree of freedom for two-tailed test.

(b) Since our test statistic doesn't lie within the range of critical values of t, so we have sufficient evidence to reject our null hypothesis as it will fall in the rejection region due to which we reject our null hypothesis.

Therefore, we conclude that the mean percentage is  different from 23 and the manufacturing process will be re-calibrated.

(c) The P-value of the test statistics is given by;

           P-value = P( [tex]t_g[/tex] > 3.162) = 0.006 or 0.6%

Hence ,

(a) Null Hypothesis,  [tex]H_o:\mu[/tex]: = 23%    

   Alternate Hypothesis, [tex]H_A:\mu\neq[/tex] : 23%

(b) We conclude that the mean percentage is  different from 23 and the manufacturing process will be re-calibrated.

(c) P-value is 0.6%.

Answer:

63

Step-by-step explanation: The ratio from planet A to B is 100 to 3. If an elephant weight 2100 is planet a, then we are multiplying 21 to hundred. Whatever you do on the left side you have to do it on the right side and if you multiply 21 and 3 on the right side then you get 63.

Answer:

63 pounds

Step-by-step explanation:

The ratio for Planet A to Planet B is

100 : 3

Creating a proportionality with the unknown as x

=> [tex]\frac{100}{3} = \frac{2100}{x}[/tex]

Isolating x would give

x = [tex]\frac{2100 * 3}{100}[/tex]

x = 21 × 3

x = 63 pounds

A foundry has been commissioned to make souvenir coins. The coins are to be made from an alloy that is 40% silver. The foundry has on hand two alloys, one with 50% silver content and one with a 25% silver content. How many kilograms of each alloy should be used to make 10 kilograms of the 40% silver alloy?

Answers

Answer:

the amount of 50% silver alloy is 6 kilograms and the amount of 25% silver alloy is (10-6)= 4 kilograms.

Step-by-step explanation:

Suppose, the weight of the alloy with 50% silver content is x  kilograms.

As, the weight of the mixed alloy should be 10 kilograms, so the weight of the alloy with 25% silver content will be:  kilograms

The percentage of silver content in the mixed alloy is 40%. So the equation will be calculated as

[tex]0.5x+0.25(10-x)=0.4\times10\\0.5x+2.5-0.25x=4\\0.25x=1.5\\\Rightarrow x=\frac{1.5}{0.25} = 6[/tex]

So, the amount of 50% silver alloy is 6 kilograms and the amount of 25% silver alloy is (10-6)= 4 kilograms.
