Answer 1

Answer:

The story tells of a plain-looking little bird (the Ugly Duckling) born in a barnyard. His brothers and sisters as well as the other birds and animals on the farm tease him for being plain and ugly, so he runs off to live with a flock of wild ducks and geese until hunters shoot down the flock. Alone again, the Ugly Duckling finds a home with an old woman, but her cat and hen also tease him, so he doesn't stay there long.

In his wanderings, the Ugly Duckling comes across a flock of migrating swans, and he wishes to join them but can't because he's too young and can't fly well enough. When winter sets in, a farmer rescues the Ugly Duckling, but the farmer's children and other animals frighten him with their noise and teasing, so again, he flees. He spends a cold and lonely winter hiding in a cave until springtime, when the flock of swans comes to the lake near his hiding place.

When the Ugly Duckling approaches the swans, he's delighted to find that they accept him and treat him like one of them. When he looks at his reflection in the lake, he realizes, to his astonishment, that he's matured into a beautiful swan himself. When the swans fly off from the lake, he spreads his wings and joins them, finally having found a family who accepts him.

Using the table above. Which statement below is true?

Answers

9514 1404 393

Answer:

  (d)  45% play basketball; 55% play soccer

Step-by-step explanation:

You just need a little number sense here. The total number who play sports is the number in the lower right of the table: 120.

The fraction who are males playing basketball is 42/120. Comparing that to 45/100, we see it cannot be 45%. (a) is false.

The fraction who are males is 72/120, more than half, so cannot be 40%. (b) is false.

Looking at males who play basketball, we have already determined the fraction 42/120 is well below 65%. (c) is false.

The fraction who play basketball is 54/120 = 45%. (d) is true.

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that,

The height of the tower, h = 40 m

The angle of elevation is 30°

We need to find the distance between the tower and the point. Let the distance is x. Using trigonometry,

[tex]\tan(30)=\dfrac{h}{x}\\\\\dfrac{1}{\sqrt3}=\dfrac{40}{x}\\\\x=40\sqrt3\ m[/tex]

So, the distance between the tower and the point is equal to [tex]40\sqrt3\ m[/tex].

How many boxes could you stack safely on a pallet if the pallet is 5 feet deep, five feet across, every box is 1 x 1 and the maximum safe stacking height is 5 boxes? *

Answers

Answer:

25 boxes could be stacked safely on the pallet.

Step-by-step explanation:

To determine how many boxes could you stack safely on a pallet if the pallet is 5 feet deep, five feet across, every box is 1 x 1 and the maximum safe stacking height is 5 boxes, the following calculation should be performed:

Pallet = 5 x 5 = 25 square feet

Box = 1 x 1 = 1 square foot

25/1 = 25

Therefore, 25 boxes could be stacked safely on the pallet.

a. A CD is discounted by 10%, and then from the already discounted price, a further 15% discount is given. If the price now is $12.93, find the original price.

b. What is the total discount percent as compared to the original price?

Answers

Answer:

  a. $16.90

  b. 23.5%

Step-by-step explanation:

a. After the two discounts, the original price is multiplied by ...

  (1 -10%)(1 -15%) = 0.90×0.85 = 0.765

Then the original price is found from ...

  $12.93 = 0.765 × original price

  original price = $12.93 / 0.765 ≈ $16.90

__

b. The effective discount from the original price is ...

  1 -0.765 = 0.235 = 23.5%

Two figures are known as similar figures if there the corresponding angles are equal and the corresponding sider is in ratio. The statement that are correct are x=35, y = 55, and z =90.

What are Similar Figures?

Two figures are known as similar figures if there the corresponding angles are equal and the corresponding sider is in ratio. It is denoted by the symbol "~".

Given the ΔPQR is similar to ΔSTU, therefore, the statements that are correct about the two triangles are,

∠P = ∠S = x = 35°

∠Q = ∠T = y

∠R = ∠U = z = 55°

Since the sum of all the angles of a triangle is equal to 180°. For ΔPQR we can write,

∠P + ∠Q + ∠R = 180°

°35 + y + 55° = 180°

y = 180° - 55° - 35°

y = 90°

Hence, the statement that are correct are x=35, y = 55, and z =90.

Step-by-step explanation:

In preparing for the upcoming holiday season, Fresh Toy Company (FTC) designed a new doll called The Dougie that teaches children how to dance. The fixed cost to produce the doll is $100,000. The variable cost, which includes material, labor, and shipping costs, is $34 per doll. During the holiday selling season, FTC will sell the dolls for $42 each. If FTC overproduces the dolls, the excess dolls will be sold in January through a distributor who has agreed to pay FTC $10 per doll. Demand for new toys during the holiday selling season is extremely uncertain. Forecasts are for expected sales of 60,000 dolls with a standard deviation of 15,000. The normal probability distribution is assumed to be a good description of the demand. FTC has tentatively decided to produce 60,000 units (the same as average demand), but it wants to conduct an analysis regarding this production quantity before finalizing the decision.
(a) Create a what-if spreadsheet model using formulas that relate the values of production quantity, demand, sales, revenue from sales, amount of surplus, revenue from sales of surplus, total cost, and net profit. What is the profit corresponding to average demand (60,000 units)? $
(b) Modeling demand as a normal random variable with a mean of 60,000 and a standard deviation of 15,000, simulate the sales of The Dougie doll using a production quantity of 60,000 units. What is the estimate of the average profit associated with the production quantity of 60,000 dolls? $ How does this compare to the profit corresponding to the average demand (as computed in part a)? The input in the box below will not be graded, but may be reviewed and considered by your instructor
(c) Before making a final decision on the production quantity, management wants an analysis of a more aggressive 70,000-unit production quantity and a more conservative 50,000-unit production quantity. Run your simulation with these two production quantities. What is the mean profit associated with each? When ordering 50,000 units, the average profit is approximately $. When ordering 70,000 units, the average profit is approximately $.
(d) Besides mean profit, what other factors should FTC consider in determining a production quantity? Compare the four production quantities (40,000; 50,000; 60,000; and 70,000) using all these factors. What trade-offs occur? If required, round Probability of a Loss to three decimal places and Probability of a Shortage to two decimal places. What is your recommendation?

Answer:

a) The probability that none of the lines experiences a surface finish problem in 41 hours of operation is 0.0498.

b)The probability that all three lines experience a surface finish problem between 24 and 41 hours of operation is 0.0346.

Step-by-step explanation:

[tex]Mean = \frac{1}{\lambda} = 41\\P(X\leq x)= 1-e^{-\lambda x}[/tex]

[tex]P(X>x)= e^{-\lambda x}[/tex]

a)

[tex]P(x> 41, y>41, Z>41) = (P(X>41))^{3}\\\\P(X>41)=e^{^{-\frac{41}{41}}}=e^{-1}[/tex]

[tex]P(x> 41, y>41, Z>41) = \left (e^{-1} \right )^{3}\\\\P(x> 41, y>41, Z>41) = e^{-3} = 0.0498.[/tex]

b)

The sum of four consecutive odd integers is –72. Write an equation to model this situation, and find the values of the four integers.

Answers

9514 1404 393

Answer:

(x -3) +(x -1) +(x +1) +(x +3) = -72-21, -19, -17, -15

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent the even integer between the middle two odd integers. Then the sum of the four odd integers is ...

  (x -3) +(x -1) +(x +1) +(x +3) = -72

  4x = -72

  x = -18

The four integers are -21, -19, -17, -15.

_____

Additional comment

You could let x represent one of the integers. Often, people choose to let it represent the least of them. Then the equation becomes x +(x+2) +(x+4) +(x+6) = -72, so 4x = -84 and x = -21. This introduces a "subtract 12" step in the solution process that is unnecessary if x is chosen to be the average of the integers.

As the average, x is the sum divided by the number of them, so you know x=-72/4 = -18 immediately. Then you just have to find the nearest two odd integers below and above -18. You can do the whole problem mentally.
