A botanist wishes to estimate the typical number of seeds for a certain fruit. She samples 48 specimens and counts the number of seeds in each. Use her sample results (mean = 36.9, standard deviation = 16.5) to find the 98% confidence interval for the number of seeds for the species. Enter your answer as an open-interval (i.e., parentheses) accurate to one decimal place (because the sample statistics are reported accurate to one decimal place).

Answer: 0.0026

Step-by-step explanation:

Let p denotes the proportion of students plan to go into general practice.

As per given , we have

Alternative hypothesis : [tex] H_a: p>0.28[/tex]

Since the alternative hypothesis [tex](H_a)[/tex] is right-tailed so the test is  a right-tailed test.

Also , it is given that ,

i.e. sample size : = 130

x= 490

[tex]\hat{p}=0.39[/tex]

Test statistic(z) for population proportion :

[tex]z=\dfrac{\hat{p}-p}{\sqrt{\dfrac{p(1-p)}{n}}}[/tex]

, where p=population proportion.

[tex]\hat{p}[/tex]= sample proportion

n= sample size.

[tex]z=\dfrac{0.39-0.28}{\sqrt{\dfrac{0.28(1-0.28)}{130}}}\\\\=\dfrac{0.11}{0.0393798073988}=2.79330975101\approx2.79[/tex]

P-value for right-tailed test = P(z>2.79)=1-P(z≤ 2.79)  [∵P(Z>z)=1-P(Z≤z)]

=1- 0.9974=0.0026  [using z-value table]

Hence, the  P-Value for a test of the school's claim = 0.0026

To find the p-value for a test of the school's claim, we can use a hypothesis test. The null hypothesis (H0) is that the proportion of students planning to go into general practice is equal to or less than 28%. The alternative hypothesis (Ha) is that the proportion of students planning to go into general practice is greater than 28%. Given that 39% of the sample of 130 students plan to go into general practice, we calculated the test statistic and the p-value to determine that the p-value is 0.3078.

To find the p-value for a test of the school's claim, we can use a hypothesis test. The null hypothesis (H0) is that the proportion of students planning to go into general practice is equal to or less than 28%. The alternative hypothesis (Ha) is that the proportion of students planning to go into general practice is greater than 28%.

Given that 39% of the sample of 130 students plan to go into general practice, we can calculate the test statistic and the p-value. Using a chi-square test, we calculate the test statistic to be approximately 1.307. The degrees of freedom for this test is 1.

Looking up the critical value for a one-tailed test with an alpha level of 0.05 and 1 degree of freedom, the critical value is approximately 3.841. Since the test statistic is less than the critical value, we fail to reject the null hypothesis. Therefore, the p-value is greater than 0.05.

Therefore, the correct answer for the P-value is 0.3078.

Step-by-step explanation:

To find median and mode for

a) In a uniform distribution median would be

(a+b)/2 and mode = any value

b) X is N

we know that in a normal bell shaped curve, mean = median = mode

Hence mode = median = [tex]\mu[/tex]

Rotate the right triangle with hypotenuse √7 about one leg to create a cone. Use the Pythagorean theorem to express the radius as a function of the other leg. To find the max volume, differentiate the volume formula and set equal to zero to solve for the radius and height.

The problem presents a right triangle with hypotenuse of √7 meters. This right triangle is rotated around one of its legs to form a right circular cone. To find the radius, height, and volume of the cone, we can use the properties of the triangle.  

Imagine that the triangle is rotated about the shorter leg. The height of the cone (h) is the length of the shorter leg, and the radius (r) is the longer leg. By the Pythagorean theorem, a² + b² = c², where c is the hypotenuse, a and b represent the legs of the triangle. Assume that a is the longer leg and b is the shorter leg.

From the Pythagorean theorem we get a² = (√7)² - b² = 7 - b² and so a = √(7 - b²).

The volume of the cone V = (1/3)πr²h = (1/3)π(√(7 - b²))²b = (1/3)π(7 - b²)b. Differentiating and setting the derivative equal to zero provides the desired maximum volume, giving us the values for the radius and height of the cone.

Answer:

z=0.77

Step-by-step explanation:

If 22% of the area under the standard normal curve lies to the right of z, 78% lies to the left.

According to a one-sided z-score table:

If z-score = 0.77 the area under the curve is 77.94%

If z-score = 0.78 the area under the curve is 78.23%

Since only two decimal plates are required, there is no need to actually interpolate the values, just verify which one is closer to 78%

Since 77.94% is closer, a z-score of 0.77 represents a 22% area under the standard normal curve to the right of z.

To find z such that 22% of the area under the standard normal curve lies to the right of z, the value of z is approximately 0.81.

To find the value of z such that 22% of the area under the standard normal curve lies to the right of z, we can use a z-table or a calculator. First, we need to find the area under the curve to the left of z, which is 1 - 0.22 = 0.78. We can then look up the z-score that corresponds to this area in the table. The z-score is approximately 0.81. Therefore, the value of z is approximately 0.81.

Answer:

0.212 is the probability that a randomly selected tire will have a depth less than 0.70 mm.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the following information in the question:

Mean, μ =  0.98 mm

Standard Deviation, σ =  0.35 mm

We are given that the distribution of tire tread is a bell shaped distribution that is a normal distribution.

Formula:

[tex]z_{score} = \displaystyle\frac{x-\mu}{\sigma}[/tex]

a) P(depth less than 0.70 mm)

P(x < 0.70)

[tex]P( x < 0.70) = P( z < \displaystyle\frac{0.70 - 0.98}{0.35}) = P(z < -0.8)[/tex]

Calculating from normal z table, we have:

[tex]P(z<-0.8) = 0.212[/tex]

[tex]P(x < 0.70) = 0.212 = 21.2\%[/tex]

Thus, this event is not unusual and will  not warrant a refund.

Answer:

Is plausible that the successive throws are independent

Step-by-step explanation:

1) Table with info given

The observed values are given by the following table

__________________________________________________

First shot          Made          Second shot missed           Total

__________________________________________________

Made                  152                       33                                185

Missed                37                         8                                  45

__________________________________________________

Total                    189                       41                                230

2) Calculations and test

We are interested on check independence and for this we need to conduct a chi square test, the next step would be find the expected value:

Null hypothesis: Independence between two successive free throws

Alternative hypothesis: No Independence between two successive free throws

_____________________________________________________

First shot                    Made                                    Second shot missed

_____________________________________________________

Made                  189(185)/230=152.0217                41(185)/230=32.9783

Missed                189(45)/230=36.9783                  41(45)/230=8.0217

_____________________________________________________

On this case all the expected values are higher than 5 and the sample size 230 is enough to apply the chi squared test.

3) Calculate the chi square statistic

The statistic for this case is given by:

[tex]\chi_{cal}^2 =\sum \frac{(O_i -E_i)}{E_i}[/tex]

Where O represent the observed values and E the expected values. Replacing the values that we got we have this

[tex]\chi_{cal}^2 =\frac{(152-152.0217)^2}{152.0217}+\frac{(33-32.9783)^2}{32.9783}+\frac{(37-36.9783)^2}{36.9783}+\frac{(8-8.0217)^2}{8.0217}=0.000003098+0.00001428+0.00001273+0.0.00005870=0.00008881[/tex]

Now with the calculated value we can find the degrees of freedom

[tex]df=(r-1)(c-1)=(2-1)(2-1)=1[/tex] on this case r means the number of rows and c the number of columns.

Now we can calculate the p value

[tex]p_v =P(\chi^2 >0.00008881)=0.9925[/tex]

On this case the pvalue is a very large value and that indicates that we can fail to reject the null hypothesis of independence. So is plausible that the successive throws are independent.

Answer:

[tex]P(\bar X>308)=1-0.0721=0.928[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

1) Previous concepts

Normal distribution, is a "probability distribution that is symmetric about the mean, showing that data near the mean are more frequent in occurrence than data far from the mean".

The Z-score is "a numerical measurement used in statistics of a value's relationship to the mean (average) of a group of values, measured in terms of standard deviations from the mean".  

Let X the random variable that represent the GRE score at the University of Pennsylvania for the incoming class of 2016-2017, and for this case we know the distribution for X is given by:

[tex]X \sim N(\mu=311,\sigma=13)[/tex]  

And let [tex]\bar X[/tex] represent the sample mean, the distribution for the sample mean is given by:

[tex]\bar X \sim N(\mu,\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}})[/tex]

On this case  [tex]\bar X \sim N(311,\frac{13}{\sqrt{40}})[/tex]

2) Calculate the probability

We want this probability:

[tex]P(\bar X>308)=1-P(\bar X<308)[/tex]

The best way to solve this problem is using the normal standard distribution and the z score given by:

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

If we apply this formula to our probability we got this:

[tex]P(\bar X >308)=1-P(Z<\frac{308-311}{\frac{13}{\sqrt{40}}})=1-P(Z<-1.46)[/tex]

[tex]P(\bar X>308)=1-0.0721=0.9279[/tex]  and rounded would be 0.928

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer:

Part A)  Not collide

Part B)  k = 4

Part C)  Particle B is moving fast.

Step-by-step explanation:

Two particles move in the xy-plane. At time, t

Position of particle A:-

[tex]x(t)=5t-5[/tex]

[tex]y(t)=2t-k[/tex]

Position of particles B:-

[tex]x(t)=4t[/tex]

[tex]y(t)=t^2-2t+1[/tex]

Part A)  For k = -6

Position particle A, (5t-5,2t+6)

Position of particle B, [tex](4t,t^2-2t-1)[/tex]

If both collides then x and y coordinate must be same

Therefore,

5t - 5 = 4t    

       t = 5

[tex]2t+6=t^2-2t-1[/tex]

[tex]t^2-4t-7=0[/tex]

[tex]t=-1.3,5.3[/tex]

The value of t is not same. So, k = -6 A and B will not collide.

Part B) If both collides then x and y coordinate must be same

5t - 5 = 4t    

       t = 5

[tex]2t-k=t^2-2t-1[/tex]

Put t = 5

[tex]10-k=25-10-1[/tex]

[tex]k=4[/tex]

Hence, if k = 4 then A and B collide.

Part C)

Speed of particle A, [tex]\dfrac{dA}{dt}[/tex]

[tex]\dfrac{dA}{dt}=\dfrac{dy}{dt}\cdot \dfrac{dt}{dx}[/tex]

[tex]\dfrac{dA}{dt}=2\cdot \dfrac{1}{5}\approx 0.4[/tex]

Speed of particle B, [tex]\dfrac{dB}{dt}[/tex]

[tex]\dfrac{dB}{dt}=\dfrac{dy}{dt}\cdot \dfrac{dt}{dx}[/tex]

[tex]\dfrac{dB}{dt}=2t-2\cdot \dfrac{1}{4}[/tex]

At t = 5

[tex]\dfrac{dB}{dt}=10-2\cdot \dfrac{1}{4}=2[/tex]

Hence, Particle B moves faster than particle A

To determine if the particles collide, we set up equations with their x-coordinates and y-coordinates. Part (a) asks if they collide when k = -6. Part (b) asks for the value of k that guarantees a collision, and part (c) compares the speeds at the time of collision.

To determine if the particles collide, we need to find out if their x-coordinates and y-coordinates are equal at any given time. Given the positions of particles A and B, we can set up two equations by equating their x-coordinates and y-coordinates. For part (a), when k = -6 we can solve the equations to find if they intersect. For part (b), we need to find the value of k that makes the two particles collide. Finally, for part (c), we compare the speeds of particles A and B when they collide.

To estimate the mean age at which Clemson students would like to get married to within 1.5 years with 90% confidence, we need to survey at least 92 Clemson students.

To estimate the mean age at which Clemson students would like to get married to within 1.5 years with 90% confidence, we need to calculate the sample size needed for this level of precision. The formula to determine the sample size is:

n = (z * σ / E)^2

where n is the required sample size, z is the z-score corresponding to the desired confidence level (in this case 90% confidence level which corresponds to a z-score of 1.645), σ is the standard deviation, and E is the desired margin of error (1.5 years).

Plugging in the values, we get:

n = (1.645 * 6 / 1.5)^2

n = 91.154

Rounding up to the nearest whole number, we need to survey at least 92 Clemson students in order to estimate the mean age at which Clemson students would like to get married to within 1.5 years with 90% confidence.

Answer:

The length of the person’s shadow is 5.7ft

Explanation:

Length of the flagpole =a= 35ft

Length of the shadow of the flagpole= b=50ft

Length of the person=c= 4ft

Suppose the length of the person’s shadow is=d

According to the  rules of trigonometry

[tex]\frac{\text { Length of the flagpole }}{\text { Length of the shadow of the flagpole }}=\frac{\text { Length of the person }}{\text { Length of the person's shadow }}[/tex]

[tex]\frac{a}{b}=\frac{c}{d}[/tex]

[tex]\frac{35}{50}=\frac{4}{d}[/tex]

35d=200

d=[tex]\frac{200}{35}[/tex]

d=5.7ft  

Hence, The length of the person’s shadow is 5.7ft.

Answer: 95% confidence interval would be (175.04,194.96).

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we have given that

Mean = 185 mg

Standard deviation = 17.6 mg

At 95% confidence level, z = 1.96

So, Interval would be

[tex]\bar{x}\pm z\dfrac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}\\\\=185\pm 1.96\times \dfrac{17.6}{\sqrt{12}}\\\\=185\pm 9.958\\\\=(185-9.958,185+9.958)\\\\=(175.042,194.958)\\\\=(175.04,194.96)[/tex]

Hence, 95% confidence interval would be (175.04,194.96).

Using the provided values and steps for constructing a 95% confidence interval, we estimate, with 95% confidence, that the true mean cholesterol content of all such eggs lies between 146.5 and 223.5 milligrams.

To construct a 95% confidence interval for the mean cholesterol content of all such eggs, we will use the provided sample mean (185 milligrams), standard error (17.6 milligrams), and the fact that the sample size (12 eggs) is relatively small, so we use a t-distribution.

Firstly, we need to find the t-score for a 95% confidence level. Since degrees of freedom (df) is n-1 -> 12-1=11, and at a 95% confidence level, the t-score (from t-distribution table) is approximately 2.201 for a two-tailed test.

Next, we use the formula for confidence interval:

Calculating these gives:

Step-by-step explanation:

If cost (C) = $7, then Sales (S) = 37,500 units

If cost (C) = $15, then Sales (S) = 17,500 units

The slope of the linear relationship between units sold and cost is:

[tex]m=\frac{37,500-17,500}{7-15}\\m= -2,500[/tex]

The linear equation that describes this relationship is:

[tex]s-s_0 =m(c-c_0)\\s-17500 =-2500(c-15)\\s(c)=-2500c + 55,000[/tex]

The revenue function is given by:

[tex]R(c) = c*s(c)\\R(c)=-2500c^2 + 55,000c[/tex]

The cost at which the derivative of the revenue equals zero is the cost that yields the maximum revenue.

[tex]\frac{d(R(c))}{dc}=0 =-5000c + 55,000\\c=\$11[/tex]

The optimal cost is $11, therefore, the maximum revenue is:

Step-by-step explanation:

5x^2 + 6x - 17 + (x + 6)^2

= 5x^2 + 6x - 17 + x^2 + 12x + 36

=  6x^2 + 18x + 19.

Answer:

6x^2 + 18x + 19

Step-by-step explanation:

The standard form of a polynomial depends on the degree of the polynomial. The polynomial is in the standard form when it is arranged such that the first term contains the highest degree, and it decreases with the consecutive terms.

The square of the binomial is (x+6)^2

(x+6)^2 = (x+6)(x+6) = x^2 + 6x + 6x + 36 = x^2 + 12x + 36

The sum of the two polynomials will be 5x^2+6x−17 + x^2 + 12x + 36

Answer:

[tex]SE=\frac{1.5}{\sqrt{120}}=0.137[/tex]

The 95% confidence interval would be given by (4.729;5.271)    

Step-by-step explanation:

1) Previous concepts

A confidence interval is "a range of values that’s likely to include a population value with a certain degree of confidence. It is often expressed a % whereby a population means lies between an upper and lower interval".

The margin of error is the "range of values below and above the sample statistic in a confidence interval".

The standard error of a statistic is "the standard deviation of its sampling distribution or an estimate of that standard deviation"

Normal distribution, is a "probability distribution that is symmetric about the mean, showing that data near the mean are more frequent in occurrence than data far from the mean".

[tex]\bar X[/tex] represent the sample mean for the sample  

[tex]\mu[/tex] population mean (variable of interest)

s represent the sample standard deviation

n represent the sample size  

The confidence interval for the mean is given by the following formula:

[tex]\bar X \pm t_{\alpha/2}\frac{s}{\sqrt{n}}[/tex]   (1)

We use the t distirbution for this case since we don't know the population standard deviation [tex]\sigma[/tex].

Where the standard error is given by: [tex]SE=\frac{s}{\sqrt{n}}[/tex]

And the margin of error would be given by: [tex]ME=t_{\alpha/2}\frac{s}{\sqrt{n}}[/tex]

In order to calculate the critical value [tex]t_{\alpha/2}[/tex] we need to find first the degrees of freedom, given by:

[tex]df=n-1=120-1=119[/tex]

Since the Confidence is 0.95 or 95%, the value of [tex]\alpha=0.05[/tex] and [tex]\alpha/2 =0.025[/tex], and we can use excel, a calculator or a table to find the critical value. And we see that [tex]t_{\alpha/2}=1.98[/tex]

The standard error would be given by:

[tex]SE=\frac{1.5}{\sqrt{120}}=0.137[/tex]

Now we have everything in order to replace into formula (1) and calculate the interval:

[tex]5-1.98\frac{1.5}{\sqrt{120}}=4.729[/tex]    

[tex]5+1.98\frac{1.5}{\sqrt{120}}=5.271[/tex]

So on this case the 95% confidence interval would be given by (4.729;5.271)    

Final answer:

The standard error of the mean (SE) is calculated to be 0.137, allowing the resort to expect the true average number of nights per guest to fall within a range of approximately 4.73 to 5.27 nights with 95% confidence.

Explanation:

The standard error of the mean (SE) is calculated by dividing the sample standard deviation by the square root of the sample size. In this case, the standard error is 1.5 / sqrt(120) = 0.137. With a confidence level of 95%, the resort can expect the true average number of nights to fall within approximately 5 - 1.96 * 0.137 nights to 5 + 1.96 * 0.137 nights, which is roughly between 4.73 and 5.27 nights.

A function is a relation that has one output for a given input.

For the first one, there is no one x value with two or more y values so it is a function.

Because we want a 99% confidence interval for the difference [tex]p_{x}-p_{y}[/tex], we have that [tex]z_{\alpha/2}=z_{0.01/2}=z_{0.005}=2.5758[/tex] (The area above 2.5758 and below the curve of the stardard normal density is 0.005) and the confidence interval is [tex](0.7679-0.6098)\pm (2.5758)\sqrt{\frac{0.7679(1-0.7679)}{56}+\frac{0.6098(1-0.6098)}{41}}[/tex] = (-0.0861, 0.4023).

Answer:

To conduct the hypothesis test I would use the standard normal distribution to calculate the critical value and the p-value.

Step-by-step explanation:

To conduct the hypothesis test I would use the standard normal distribution because there is a large sample size of n = 125 households. This because a point estimator for the true proportion p of one-person households is [tex]\hat{p} = Y/n[/tex] which is normally distributed with mean p and standard error [tex]\sqrt{p(1-p)/n}[/tex] when the sample size n is large. Here Y is the random variable that represents the number of one-person households observed. Then the test statistic is [tex]Z = \frac{\hat{p}-0.27}{\sqrt{p(1-p)/n}}[/tex] which has a standard normal distribution under the null hypothesis.

On average, when placing a $1 bet on five numbers in roulette, you would expect to lose about 53 cents due to the game's probability structure.

In order to calculate the expected winnings in a roulette game, consider a $1 bet on five numbers. The roulette wheel has 38 possibilities (1 to 36, 0, and 00). So, the chance that your bet will win is 5 out of 38. If it wins, the game pays off 6 to 1, which means you get your $1 bet back and win $6 additional, for a total of $7. The expected value of this bet can be calculated as follows: (probability of winning * amount won if bet is successful) - (probability of losing * amount lost if bet is not successful). In other words, E(X) = [5/38 * $7] - [33/38 * $1]. This equates to an expected value of -$0.53 (rounded to the nearest cent). So, on average, with each $1 bet on five numbers, you would expect to lose about 53 cents.

In the game of roulette with 38 outcomes, if you place a $1 bet on five numbers, your expected winnings are -$0.08, which means you lose 8 cents per game on average.

To calculate the expected winnings of a bet in this roulette scenario, you need to know the probability of winning and the associated payout, and also the probability of losing. In a roulette wheel with numbers 1-36 plus 0 and 00, there are a total of 38 possible outcomes. When you place a 5-number bet, the probability of winning is 5 out of 38 or approximately 0.1316, and the probability of losing is 33 out of 38 or approximately 0.8684.

Now we add the expected winnings and losses. The expected gain from a win is the probability of winning times the payout, which is $6 in this case. So, 0.1316 * $6 = $0.79, rounded to the nearest cent. The expected loss from a bet is the probability of loss times the amount of the bet which is $1. So, 0.8684 * -$1 = -$0.87, rounded to the nearest cent. Total expected value or earnings from a single $1 bet on five numbers would be the sum of expected gains and losses, or $0.79 - $0.87 = -$0.08.

So, with a $1 bet on five numbers on this roulette wheel, you can expect, on average, to lose 8 cents per game. This negative figure indicates that this is not a good bet if you're expecting to make money on average.

Answer:

B and D

Step-by-step explanation:

sin x cos x = 1/4

Multiply both sides by 2:

2 sin x cos x = 1/2

Use double angle formula:

sin(2x) = 1/2

Solve:

2x = π/6 + 2nπ or 2x = 5π/6 + 2nπ

x = π/12 + nπ or x = 5π/12 + nπ

Answer:

False this value is very likely to find in this distribution

Step-by-step explanation:

With mean 7 ( μ ) and standad deviation  (σ ) 2 we can observe, value 6.6  is close to the lower limit of the interval

μ  ± 0,5 σ      7 ± 1 in which we should find 68,3 % of all values

(just 6 tenth to the left)

And of course 6.6 is inside the interval

μ  ± 1 σ   where we find 95.7 % of th value

We conclude this value is not unlikely at all

Final answer:

To determine whether it is unlikely to find a random sample with a mean breaking weight of 6.6 lbs in a population with a mean of 7 lbs and a standard deviation of 2 lbs, we can use hypothesis testing. The calculated z-score is less than the critical z-value, indicating that it is unlikely to find a random sample with a mean breaking weight of 6.6 lbs in the population. Therefore, the statement is true.

Explanation:

To determine whether it is unlikely to find a random sample with a mean breaking weight of 6.6 lbs in a population with a mean of 7 lbs and a standard deviation of 2 lbs, we need to use hypothesis testing. We can set up the null and alternative hypotheses as follows:

Null hypothesis (H0): The population mean breaking weight is equal to 7 lbs.

Alternative hypothesis (Ha): The population mean breaking weight is less than 7 lbs.

Next, we can calculate the z-score using the formula (sample mean - population mean)/(standard deviation/sqrt(sample size)). Substituting the values, we get (6.6 - 7)/(2/sqrt(36)) = -0.6/ (2/6) = -0.6/ (1/3) = -1.8.

We can now look up the critical z-value for a one-tailed test at a significance level of 0.05. The critical z-value is -1.645. Since the calculated z-score (-1.8) is less than the critical z-value (-1.645), we can reject the null hypothesis. Therefore, it is true that finding a random sample with a mean breaking weight of 6.6 lbs in a population with a mean of 7 lbs and a standard deviation of 2 lbs is very unlikely.

Answer:

Lowest acceptable score = 121.3

Step-by-step explanation:

Mean test score (μ) = 115

Standard deviation (σ) = 12

The z-score for any given test score 'X' is defined as:  

[tex]z=\frac{X-\mu}{\sigma}[/tex]  

In this situation, the organization is looking for people who scored in the upper 30% range, that is, people at or above the 70-th percentile of the normally distributed scores. At the 70-th percentile, the corresponding z-score is 0.525 (obtained from a z-score table). The minimum score, X, that would enable a candidate to apply for membership is:

[tex]0.525=\frac{X-115}{12}\\X=121.3[/tex]

Answer:

82 apartments should be rented.

Maximum profit realized will be $30964.

Step-by-step explanation:

Monthly profit realized from renting out x apartments is modeled by

P(x) = -11x² + 1804x - 43000

To maximize the profit we will take the derivative of the function P(x) with respect to x and equate it to zero.

P'(x) = [tex]\frac{d}{dx}(-11x^{2}+1804x-43000)[/tex]

       = -22x + 1804

For P'(x) = 0,

-22x + 1804 = 0

22x = 1804

x = 82

Now we will take second derivative,

P"(x) = -22

(-) negative value of second derivative confirms that profit will be maximum if 82 apartments are rented.

For maximum profit,

P(82) = -11(82)² + 1804(82) - 43000

        = -73964 + 147928 - 43000

        = $30964

Therefore, maximum monthly profit will be $30964.

The number of units that should be rented out to maximize the monthly rental profit is 82 units.

The maximum monthly profit realizable is [tex]\( \$30,964 \).[/tex]

To find the number of units that should be rented out to maximize the monthly rental profit and the maximum monthly profit, we need to analyze the given profit function:

[tex]\[ P(x) = -11x^2 + 1804x - 43,000 \][/tex]

This is a quadratic function of the form [tex]\( P(x) = ax^2 + bx + c \)[/tex], where [tex]\( a = -11 \), \( b = 1804 \)[/tex], and c = -43,000 .

For a quadratic function [tex]\( ax^2 + bx + c \)[/tex] with a < 0  (which opens downwards), the maximum value occurs at the vertex. The x-coordinate of the vertex for the function P(x)  is given by:

[tex]\[ x = -\frac{b}{2a} \][/tex]

Substituting a = -11  and b = 1804 :

[tex]\[ x = -\frac{1804}{2(-11)} = \frac{1804}{22} = 82 \][/tex]

Therefore, the number of units that should be rented out to maximize the profit is x = 82 .

Next, we calculate the maximum monthly profit by substituting x = 82  back into the profit function:

[tex]\[ P(82) = -11(82)^2 + 1804(82) - 43,000 \][/tex]

Calculating step by step:

[tex]\[ 82^2 = 6724 \]\[ -11(6724) = -73,964 \]\[ 1804(82) = 147,928 \]\[ P(82) = -73,964 + 147,928 - 43,000 \]\[ P(82) = 30,964 \][/tex]

So, the maximum monthly profit realizable is [tex]\( \$30,964 \).[/tex]

In summary:

- The number of units that should be rented out to maximize the monthly rental profit is 82 units.

- The maximum monthly profit realizable is [tex]\( \$30,964 \).[/tex]

Answer:

x=-3+4t\\

y =5-7t

Step-by-step explanation:

we are given that when two point (x1,y1) and (x2,y2) are joined the parametric equation representing the line segment would be

[tex]x = x_1 + (x_2 - x_1)t y = y_1 + (y_2 - y_1)t, 0 \leq ≤t \leq ≤ 1[/tex]

Our points given are

[tex](-3, 5) to (1, -2)[/tex]

So substitute the values to get

[tex]x=-3+(1+3)t =-3+4t\\y = 5+(-2-3)t =5-7t[/tex]

Hence parametric equations for the line segment joining the points

(-3,5) and (1,-2) is

[tex]x=-3+4t\\y =5-7t[/tex]

Final answer:

The parametric equations for the line segment from (-3, 5) to (1, -2) are x = -3 + 4t and y = 5 - 7t for 0 ≤ t ≤ 1.

Explanation:

The question asks for parametric equations to describe the line segment joining the points P1(-3, 5) and P2(1, -2). According to the formula provided, we have:

x = x1 + (x2 – x1)t

y = y1 + (y2 – y1)t

Substituting the values of P1 and P2 into the equations:

x = -3 + (1 – (-3))t = -3 + 4t

y = 5 + (-2 – 5)t = 5 - 7t

This means for 0 ≤ t ≤ 1, the parametric equations representing the line segment from (-3, 5) to (1, -2) are:

x = -3 + 4t

y = 5 - 7t
