Answer:
The company should use a mean of 12.37 ounces.
Step-by-step explanation:
Normal Probability Distribution
Problems of normal distributions can be solved using the z-score formula.
In a set 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]
The Z-score 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. This p-value is the probability that the value of the measure is smaller than X, that is, the percentile of X. Subtracting 1 by the p-value, we get the probability that the value of the measure is greater than X.
The distribution for the amount of beer dispensed by the machine follows a normal distribution with a standard deviation of 0.17 ounce.
This means that [tex]\sigma = 0.17[/tex]
The company can control the mean amount of beer dispensed by the machine. What value of the mean should the company use if it wants to guarantee that 98.5% of the bottles contain at least 12 ounces (the amount on the label)?
This is [tex]\mu[/tex], considering that when [tex]X = 12[/tex], Z has a p-value of [tex]1 - 0.985 = 0.015[/tex], so when [tex]X = 12, Z = -2.17[/tex].
Then
[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}[/tex]
[tex]-2.17 = \frac{12 - \mu}{0.17}[/tex]
[tex]12 - \mu = -2.17*0.17[/tex]
[tex]\mu = 12 + 2.17*0.17[/tex]
[tex]\mu = 12.37[/tex]
The company should use a mean of 12.37 ounces.

A mid-sized company has decided to implement an enterprise resource planning (ERP) system, and management suspects that many of its employees are concerned about the planned implementation. Managers are considering holding informational workshops to help decrease anxiety levels among employees. To determine whether such an approach would be effective, they randomly select 16 employees to participate in a pilot workshop. These employees were given a questionnaire to measure anxiety levels about ERP before and after participating in the workshop. Do the data indicate that anxiety levels about ERP decreases as a result of the workshop
Answer:
From the data The anxiety levels decreases as a result of the workshop
given that the mean value of the differences = -1.1125
Step-by-step explanation:
Number of randomly selected employees = 16
From the data It can be noticed that the difference in anxiety levels decrease ( Tends towards values below 0 )
To determine this we have to determine the mean value of the differences
(-3) + (-3) + (-2) +(-2) +(-2) + (-2 ) + (-1) + (-1) + (-1) + (-1) + (-1 ) + 0 + 0 + 0 + 0 + 1 / 16
= -18 / 16 = - 1.1125
mean value = -1.1125.
Andre owns a computer backup service. He charges his customers $2.50 for each backup CD. His expenses include $875 for the CD recording equipment and $0.35 for each blank CD. Which equation could Andre use to calculate his profit p for the recording of n CDs?
Answer:
[tex]p =2.15n - 875[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
[tex]CD_s= n[/tex]
[tex]Charges = 2.50[/tex] per CD
Expenses
[tex]E_1 = 875[/tex]
[tex]E_2 = 0.35[/tex] per CD
Required
The profit (p)
First, calculate the total income on n CDs
[tex]Total = Charges * n[/tex]
[tex]Total = 2.50 * n[/tex]
[tex]Total = 2.50n[/tex]
Next, the expenses on n CDs
[tex]Expenses = E_1 + E_2 * n[/tex]
[tex]Expenses = 875 + 0.35 * n[/tex]
[tex]Expenses = 875 + 0.35n[/tex]
The profit (p) is:
[tex]p = Total - Expenses[/tex]
[tex]p =2.50n - (875 + 0.35n)[/tex]
Open bracket
[tex]p =2.50n - 875 - 0.35n[/tex]
Collect like terms
[tex]p =2.50n - 0.35n - 875[/tex]
[tex]p =2.15n - 875[/tex]

Find the length of BC
Since this is a right triangle, we can use one of the three main trigonometric functions: sine, cosine or tangent.
Remember: SOH-CAH-TOA
Looking from the given angle, we want to find the opposite side and we know the hypotenuse. Therefore, we should use sine.
sin(51) = BC / 58
BC = 58 x sin(51)
BC = 45.1 units
Hope this helps!
Step-by-step explanation:
Hey there!
From the above given figure;
Angle CAB = 51°
AB = 58
Taking Angle CAB as reference angle we get;
Perpendicular (p) = BC= ?
Hypotenuse (h) = 58
Now;
Taking the ratio of sin we get;
[tex] \sin( \alpha ) = \frac{p}{h} [/tex]
[tex] \sin(51) = \frac{bc}{58} [/tex]
Simplify it;
0.7771459*58 = BC
Therefore, BC = 45.0744.
Hope it helps!

A piece of wire 11 m long is cut into two pieces. One piece is bent into a square and the other is bent into an equilateral triangle. (a) How much wire should be used for the square in order to maximize the total area
Answer:
11 meters
Step-by-step explanation:
First, we can say that the square has a side length of x. The perimeter of the square is 4x, and that is how much wire goes into the square. To maximize the area, we should use all the wire possible, so the remaining wire goes into the triangle, or (11-4x).
The area of the square is x², and the area of an equilateral triangle with side length a is (√3/4)a². Next, 11-4x is equal to the perimeter of the triangle, and since it is equilateral, each side has (11-4x)/3 length. Plugging that in for a, we get the area of the equilateral triangle is
(√3/4)((11-4x)/3)²
= (√3/4)(11/3 - 4x/3)²
= (√3/4)(121/9 - 88x/9 + 16x²/9)
= (16√3/36)x² - (88√3/36)x + (121√3/36)
The total area is then
(16√3/36)x² - (88√3/36)x + (121√3/36) + x²
= (16√3/36 + 1)x² - (88√3/36)x + (121√3/36)
Because the coefficient for x² is positive, the parabola would open up and the derivative of the parabola would be the local minimum. Therefore, to find the maximum area, we need to go to the absolute minimum/maximum points of x (x=0 or x=2.75)
When x=0, each side of the triangle is 11/3 meters long and its area is
(√3/4)a² ≈ 5.82
When x=2.75, each side of the square is 2.75 meters long and its area is
2.75² = 7.5625
Therefore, a maximum is reached when x=2.75, or the wire used for the square is 2.75 * 4 = 11 meters
The length of the square must be 4 m in order to maximize the total area.
What are the maxima and minima of a function?When we put the differentiation of the given function as zero and find the value of the variable we get maxima and minima.
We have,
Length of the wire = 11 m
Let the length of the wire bent into a square = x.
The length of the wire bent into an equilateral triangle = (11 - x)
Now,
The perimeter of a square = 4 side
4 side = x
side = x/4
The perimeter of an equilateral triangle = 3 side
11 - x = 3 side
side = (11 - x)/3
Area of square = side²
Area of equilateral triangle = (√3/4) side²
Total area:
T = (x/4)² + √3/4 {(11 -x)/3}² _____(1)
Now,
To find the maximum we will differentiate (1)
dT/dx = 0
2x/4 + (√3/4) x 2(11 - x)/3 x -1 = 0
2x / 4 - (√3/4) x 2(11 - x)/3 = 0
2x/4 - (√3/6)(11 - x) = 0
2x / 4 = (√3/6)(11 - x)
√3x = 11 - x
√3x + x = 11
x (√3 + 1) = 11
x = 11 / (1.732 + 1)
x = 11/2.732
x = 4
Thus,
The length of the square must be 4 m in order to maximize the total area.

An Arabian camel can travel 20 miles in 8 hours, carrying a 300-pound load on its back. At this rate, how far can the camel travel in 10 hours?
Answer:
25 miles
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that:
Cammel can travel 20 miles in 8 hours;
The traveling rate or speed = distance / time
Rate = 20 miles / 8 hours = 2.5 miles per hour
The distance traveled in 10 hours at this rate will be :
Distance = speed or rate * time
Distance = 2.5 mph * 10 hours
Distance traveled = 25 miles

a. Calculate the expected rate of return. Round your answer to 2 decimal places.
b. Calculate the variance and the standard deviation of this probability distribution. Use the percentage values for your calculations (for example 10% not 0.10). Round intermediate calculations to 4 decimal places.
Answer:
a) 2.06
b) variance = 270.90 , std = 275.14
Step-by-step explanation:
a) Determine Expected rate of return
attached below is the calculated table for the solution provided
∴ Expected rate of return = ∑ Xp(x) = -6.46 + 3.84 + 4.68 = 2.06
b) Determine the variance and standard deviation
Variance ( Vx ) = E(x)^2 - [ Expected rate of return ]^2
= 275.14 - ( 2.06 )^2 ≈ 270.90
standard deviation = √ variance = √270.90 = 16.459
note : E(x)^2 = ∑ x^2 p(x) = 275.14
