Kenny and Ben start competing businesses selling hats. Kenny buys supplies, costing $3, before he starts selling his
hats for $0.50 each.
Ben sells his hats for $0.25 each and spent only $1 on supplies. At
what point have they sold the same number of hats and made the
same profit (income minus costs)?
Write your answer as a coordinate point (hats, profit). HELP PLZ WHAT ARE THE EQUATIONS??

Answers

Answer 1

9514 1404 393

Answer:

  (8, 1)

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent the number of hats sold by each seller.

__

Kenny's cost: $3

Kenny's revenue: $0.50x

Kenny's profit = revenue - cost: y = 0.50x -3

__

Ben's cost: $1

Ben's revenue: $0.25x

Ben's profit = revenue - cost: y = 0.25x -1

__

The profit and sales will be the same when the same (x, y) values satisfy both profit equations.

  y = 0.50x -3

  y = 0.25x -1

  0.50x -3 = 0.25x -1 . . . . . substitute for y

  0.25x = 2 . . . . . . . . . . . add 3-0.25x

  x = 8 . . . . . . . . . . multiply by 4

  y = 0.25x -1 = 2 -1 = 1 . . . using Ben's profit equation

The profit and sales will be the same for ...

  (hats, profit) = (8, 1)

Which statement is true about the relationship between the height of the plant and the number of days? This relationship is a function because the plant can only be one height at a time. This relationship is not a function because the plant can only be one height at a time. This relationship is a function because the plant can be more than one height at a time. This relationship is not a function because the plant can be more than one height at a time.

Answers

Answer:

This relationship is a function because the plant can only be one height at a time.

Step-by-step explanation:

Functions occur when the recorded x-value is varied each time. Since the height of the plant (the x-value) varies each day, it is a function.

[tex]y = 4.5x[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

The attached table

Required

The table equation

The table shows a linear relationship.

So, we calculate the slope (m) first

Using:

[tex]m = \frac{y_2 - y_1}{x_2 - x_1}[/tex]

Where:

[tex](x_1,y_1) =(2,9)[/tex]

[tex](x_2,y_2) =(6,27)[/tex]

So, we have:

[tex]m = \frac{27 - 9}{6 - 2}[/tex]

[tex]m = \frac{18}{4}[/tex]

[tex]m = 4.5[/tex]

Next, the equation is calculated using:

[tex]y = m(x - x_1) + y_1[/tex]

So, we have:

[tex]y = 4.5(x - 2) + 9[/tex]

Open bracket

[tex]y = 4.5x - 9 + 9[/tex]

[tex]y = 4.5x[/tex]

Prove that sin^4x + cos^4x= sinxcosx

Answers

Answer:

(the relation you wrote is not correct, there may be something missing, so I will simplify the initial expression)

Here we have the equation:

[tex]sin^4(x) + cos^4(x)[/tex]

We can rewrite this as:

[tex](sin^2(x))^2 + (cos^2(x))^2[/tex]

Now we can add and subtract cos^2(x)*sin^2(x) to get:

[tex](sin^2(x))^2 + (cos^2(x))^2 + 2*cos^2(x)*sin^2(x) - 2*cos^2(x)*sin^2(x)[/tex]

We can complete squares to get:

[tex](cos^2(x) + sin^2(x))^2 - 2*cos(x)^2*sin(x)^2[/tex]

and we know that:

cos^2(x) + sin^2(x) = 1

then:

[tex]1 - 2*sin(x)^2*cos(x)^2[/tex]

This is the closest expression to what you wrote.

We also know that:

sin(x)*cos(x) = (1/2)*sin(2*x)

If we replace that, we get:

[tex]1 - \frac{sin^2(2*x)}{2}[/tex]

Then the simplification is:

[tex]cos^4(x) + sin^4(x) = 1 - \frac{sin^2(2*x)}{2}[/tex]

Wayne Gretsky scored a Poisson mean six number of points per game. sixty percent of these were goals and forty percent were assists (each is worth one point). Suppose he is paid a bonus of 3K for a goal and 1K for an assist. (a) Find the mean and standard deviation for the total revenue he earns per game. (b) What is the probability that he has four goals and two assists in one game

Answers

Answer:

a) The mean for the total revenue he earns per game is of 13.2K while the standard deviation is of 3.63K.

b) 0.05 = 5% probability that he has four goals and two assists in one game

Step-by-step explanation:

In hockey, a point is counted for each goal or assist of the player.

In a Poisson distribution, the probability that X represents the number of successes of a random variable is given by the following formula:

[tex]P(X = x) = \frac{e^{-\mu}*\mu^{x}}{(x)!}[/tex]

In which

x is the number of sucesses

e = 2.71828 is the Euler number

[tex]\mu[/tex] is the mean in the given interval. The standard deviation is the square root of the mean.

(a) Find the mean and standard deviation for the total revenue he earns per game.

60% of six are goals, which means that 60% of the time he earned 3K.

40% of six are goals, which means that 40% of the time he earned 1K.

The mean is:

[tex]\mu = 6*0.6*3 + 6*0.4*1 = 13.2[/tex]

The standard deviation is:

[tex]\sigma = \sqrt{\mu} = \sqrt{13.2} = 3.63[/tex]

The mean for the total revenue he earns per game is of 13.2K while the standard deviation is of 3.63K.

(b) What is the probability that he has four goals and two assists in one game

Goals and assists are independent of each other, which means that we find the probability P(A) of scoring four goals, the probability P(B) of getting two assists, and multiply them.

Probability of four goals:

60% of 6 are goals, which means that:

[tex]\mu = 6*0.6 = 3.6[/tex]

The probability of scoring four goals is:

[tex]P(A) = P(X = 4) = \frac{e^{-3.6}*(3.6)^{4}}{(4)!} = 0.19122[/tex]

Probability of two assists:

40% of 2 are assists, which means that:

[tex]\mu = 6*0.4 = 2.4[/tex]

The probability of getting two assists is:

[tex]P(B) = P(X = 2) = \frac{e^{-2.4}*(2.4)^{2}}{(2)!} = 0.26127[/tex]

Probability of four goals and two assists:

[tex]P(A \cap B) = P(A)*P(B) = 0.19122*0.26127 = 0.05[/tex]

0.05 = 5% probability that he has four goals and two assists in one game
