una compañía sabe que si produce "x" unidades mensuales su utilidad "u" se podría calcular con la expresión:


u(x)=-0.04x^2+44x-4000


donde "u" se expresa en dólares. Determine la razón del cambio promedio de la utilidad cuando el nivel de producción cambia de 600 a 620 unidades mensuales. Recuerde que la pendiente de la recta secante a la gráfica de la función representa a la razón de cambio promedio.


porfavor alguien que me explique el procedimiento :(

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Δf(u) /Δx  = 92,8    ( razón de cambio promedio)

Step-by-step explanation:

La expresión de la utilidad de la empresa u(x) en función de la cantidad de unidades producidas "x" es:

u(x) = 0,04*x² + 44*x  -4000

Entonces la razón de cambio promedio en un intervalo (a ; b)  en este caso ( 620 ;  600 ) viene dada por la expresión:

Δf(x)/ Δx  =  [ f(b)  -  f(a) ]/( b - a )

en donde  f(b)  y f(a) se obtienen por sustitución de los valores a y b es decir  600 y 620 respectivamente en la función f(x) = u(x) entonces

Δf(u) /Δx  =  [ u(b)  -  u(a) ]/( b -a )        (1)

u(b) =  0,04*(620)² + 44*(620) - 4000

u(b) = 15376 + 27280 -4000

u(b) = 2656 unidades

u(a)  = 0,04* (600)²  +  44* 600  - 4000

u(a)  = 14400  +  26400  - 4000

u(a) = 800

Sustituyendo esos valores en la ecuación 1

Δf(u) /Δx  =  2656 - 800 / 620 - 600

Δf(u) /Δx  = 92,8

A manufacturer of paper coffee cups would like to estimate the proportion of cups that are defective (tears, broken seems, etc.) from a large batch of cups. They take a random sample of 200 cups from the batch of a few thousand cups and found 18 to be defective. The goal is to perform a hypothesis test to determine if the proportion of defective cups made by this machine is more than 8%.

Required:
a. Calculate a 95% confidence interval for the true proportion of defective cups made by this machine.
b. What is the sample proportion?
c. What is the critical value for this problem?
d. What is the standard error for this problem?

Answers

Answer:

a

  The 95% confidence interval is  [tex]0.0503 < p < 0.1297[/tex]

b

The sample proportion is  [tex]\r p = 0.09[/tex]

c

The critical value is  [tex]Z_{\frac{\alpha }{2} } = 1.96[/tex]

d

 The standard error is  [tex]SE =0.020[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question we are told that

   The  sample size is  n =  200

     The number of defective is  k =  18

The null hypothesis is  [tex]H_o : p = 0.08[/tex]

The  alternative hypothesis is  [tex]H_a : p > 0.08[/tex]

Generally the sample proportion is mathematically evaluated as

            [tex]\r p = \frac{18}{200}[/tex]

            [tex]\r p = 0.09[/tex]

Given that the confidence level is  95% then the level  of significance is mathematically evaluated as

        [tex]\alpha = 100 - 95[/tex]

        [tex]\alpha = 5\%[/tex]

        [tex]\alpha = 0.05[/tex]

Next we obtain the critical value of  [tex]\frac{ \alpha }{2}[/tex] from the normal distribution table, the value is  

        [tex]Z_{\frac{\alpha }{2} } = 1.96[/tex]

Generally the standard of error is mathematically represented as

          [tex]SE = \sqrt{\frac{\r p (1 - \r p)}{n} }[/tex]

substituting values

         [tex]SE = \sqrt{\frac{0.09 (1 - 0.09)}{200} }[/tex]

        [tex]SE =0.020[/tex]

The  margin of error is  

       [tex]E = Z_{\frac{ \alpha }{2} } * SE[/tex]

=>    [tex]E = 1.96 * 0.020[/tex]

=>   [tex]E = 0.0397[/tex]

The  95% confidence interval is mathematically represented as

     [tex]\r p - E < \mu < p < \r p + E[/tex]

=>   [tex]0.09 - 0.0397 < \mu < p < 0.09 + 0.0397[/tex]

=>  [tex]0.0503 < p < 0.1297[/tex]

Cases Prudence has a special (cubic) die. The values on its face are the integers from 1 to 6, but they are not arranged ae in a normal die. When Prudence first tosses the die, the sum of the values on the four side faces is 15. In her second toss, the sum of these values is 12. Find what value appears in the face opposite 6 on Prudence’s special die. (Hint: what are possible values for the top and bottom face when the sum of the side faces is 12).

Answers

Answer: 3

Step-by-step explanation:

first, we know that:

1 + 2 + 3 + 4 +5 +6 = 21

Now, which two numbers we should take out in order to have 15?

we can remove the 2 and the 4, or the 1 and the 5.

so here we have two possibilities, 2 and 4 are opposite, or 1 and 5 are opposite (they are located in opposite faces of the die)

in the other arrange, we have that removing two numbers we should get 12.

in order to reach 12, we should remove two numbers that add 9 together.

those can be 4 and 5, or 6 and 3.

Now, notice that in the first restriction we have that:

Or 2 and 4 are opposite,

or 1 and 5 are opposite.

So 4 and 5 can never be opposite, so we should have that 6 and 3 are opposite.

Then we can affirm that the value that appears in the face opposite to the 6, is the 3.

Residents of four cities are able to vote in an upcoming regional election. A newspaper recently conducted a survey to gauge support for each of the two candidates. The results of the poll are shown in the two-way frequency table below.

Answers

Answer:

3 only

Step-by-step explanation:

Consider the statement, "The two cities with the highest number of respondents, both show more support for candidate A." In the total column, the two highest number of respondents are 471 and 463 which represent Carsonville and Appleton. For Carsonville, the number of respondents who prefer candidate A is 205, which is less than the number of respondents who prefer candidate B, 266. Therefore, this statement is not true.

Consider the statement, "The number of people who support candidate B in Carsonville is twice the number of people who support candidate B in New Thomas." In the table, the number of people who support candidate B in Carsonville is observed to be 266 and the number of people who support candidate B in New Thomas is 138. Since 266 is not equal to twice 138, this statement is not true.

Consider the statement, "More residents of Center City responded to the poll than the number who responded from New Thomas." In the total column, it can be observed that 350 people responded to the poll in Center City and 318 people responded to the poll in New Thomas. Since, 350 is greater than 318, this statement is true.

Consider the statement, "Overall, more residents support candidate A than candidate B." The bottom row of the table represents the total number of responses for each candidate. The number of people supporting candidate A is 797, which is less than the number of people supporting candidate B, 805. So, this statement is not true.

Therefore, the true statement is III only.

More residents of the center city responded to the pole than the number who responded from New Thomas, which is the only correct option. Option B. is correct.


Data given in the table shows the data of elections between two candidates among the different cities.

 

What is Statistic?

Statistics is the study of mathematics that deals with relations between comprehensive data.


I.The two cities with the highest number of respondents both show more support for candidate A. This statement is false because carsonville is the second highest support for A but it does not show more support for candidate A.

II.The number of people who support candidate B in Carsonville is twice the number of people who support candidate B in New Thomas. It is false

III. More residents of Center City responded to the pole than the number who responded from New Thomas. It is true.

IV. Overall, more residents support candidate A than candidate B. it is also false.

Thus, more residents of the center city responded to the pole than the number who responded from New Thomas, which is the only correct option. Option B. is correct.

Answers

Answer:

(a) 1.341

(b) -2.539

(c) -2.160 and 2.160

Step-by-step explanation:

(a) We have to find the critical​ value(s) for a​ right-tailed test of a population mean at the alpha = 0.10 level of significance with 15 degrees of freedom. ​

Since the degrees of freedom are included here, so we will use t table here for a population mean test.

In the table there are two values given, one is the degrees of freedom and another is the value of P.

P is the level of significance at which the critical values are calculated.

So, here the degrees of freedom (n - 1) = 15 and the level of significance for a right-tailed test is 0.10, i.e. P = 10%

Now, looking in the t table with P = 10% and [tex]\nu[/tex] = 15, we get the critical value of 1.341.

(b) We have to find the critical​ value(s) for a​ left-tailed test of a population mean at the alpha = 0.01 based on a sample size of n = 20. ​

Since the degrees of freedom are included here, so we will use t table here for a population mean test.

In the table there are two values given, one is the degrees of freedom and another is the value of P.

P is the level of significance at which the critical values are calculated.

So, here the degrees of freedom (n - 1) = 20 - 1 = 19 and the level of significance for a left-tailed test is 0.01, i.e. P = 1%

Now, looking in the t table with P = 1% and [tex]\nu[/tex] = 19, we get the critical value of 2.539. But since it is a left-tailed test, so the critical value will be -2.539.

(c) We have to find the critical​ value(s) for a​ two-tailed test of a population mean at the alpha = 0.05 level of significance based on a sample size of n = 14. ​

Since the degrees of freedom are included here, so we will use t table here for a population mean test.

In the table there are two values given, one is the degrees of freedom and another is the value of P.

P is the level of significance at which the critical values are calculated.

So, here the degrees of freedom (n - 1) = 14 - 1 = 13 and the level of significance for a two-tailed test is [tex]\frac{0.05}{2}[/tex] is 0.025, i.e. P = 2.5%.

Now, looking in the t table with P = 2.5% and [tex]\nu[/tex] = 13, we get the critical value of -2.160 and 2.160 for a two-tailed test.

[tex] \cos(\theta)=-\frac{2}{\sqrt{29}}[/tex] and $\theta$ lies in $2^{\text{th}}$ quadrant.

now, cosine means, side adjacent over the hypotenuse, in Cartesian plane, that will be $x-$ coordinate over the distance from origin.

Assume the triangle , with base $2$ units and hypotenuse $\sqrt{29}$ and it's in second quadrant. (so [tex] \cos(\theta)=-\frac{2}{\sqrt{29}}[/tex])

now, the leftmost point on $x-$ axis is , obviously $(-2,0)$

and by Pythagoras theorem, we can find the perpendicular side, that will be $y^2=(\sqrt{29})^2-(2)^2\implies y=5$

so the coordinates of the upper vertex is $(-2,5)$, each point lying on this "ray" should have equal ratio of respective coordinates. i.e. $\frac25=\left|\frac xy\right| $

and it should lie on second quadrant, so $x<0 \, y>0$

Define two terms, each containing the variables x and y, with exponents on each. (For Example : 10x³y–⁵)Find the quotient of the two terms. Explain step-by-step how you found the quotient

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Two such terms are 7x^3*y^9 and -3x*y^5

Their quotient is

7x^3*y^9

--------------

 -3x*y^5

This can be simplified as follows:

The numerical coefficients become -7/3.

x^3/x = x^3*x^1 = x^(3 - 1) = x^2 (we subtract the exponent of x in the denominator from the exponent of x in the numerator).

Next, y^9*y^5 = y^4.

The quotient in final reduced form is then (-7/3)x^2*y^4

Step-by-step explanation:

The sum of two positive number is 6 times their difference. what is the reciprocal of the ratio of the larger number to the smaller?

Answers

let the numbers be a and b, a>b

a+b=6(a-b)

we need to find reciprocal of ratio of larger to smaller , which will be same as ratio of smaller to larger or b/a, let's call it x

divide the equation by a.

1+x=6(1-x)

on solving, x=5/7

THE PRICE OF AN ITEM FROM $10 TO $17. WHAT WAS THE PERCENT INCREASE IN THE PRICE OF THE ITEM?

Answers

Answer:

70%

Step-by-step explanation:

The method to find out percentage increase is by subtracting the original price from the increased price and making it into a fractional form with the denominator as 10 (out of 100%). So it results to this.

(original price - increased price) / 10

(17 - 10) / 10 = 7/10

7/10 can be converted from its fractional form to 70% i.e.its percentage.
