A golf instructor offers 1-hour private lessons from 2 pm to 6 pm every Saturday afternoon. His hourly rate is $60. The instructor takes appointments during the weekdays. Recently, the instructor receives quite a few late cancellations in Saturday morning. He can do nothing given the short notice. Therefore, the instructor institutes an overbooking policy. In case a customer cannot be served, the instructor will give a $40 certificate (he buys it from the golf club) for a free round of golf. The number of no-shows can be 1, 2, 3, or 4, each with a probability of 0.25. How many reservations should the instructor take

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

The answer is 8.

Step-by-step explanation:

He is guaranteed to make $240 between 2 and 6 pm every Saturday afternoon. For each time that both of the 2 customers booked for the same hour does not cancel, he earns only $20. Considering that the probability of cancellation is 25%, if he books 8 customers for the 4 hour period on Saturday afternoon, he is making an extra $80 which bumps up his total earnings to $320. If he accepts any booking after 8, each is going to cost him $40. So the total number of reservations he should take is 8.

I hope this answer helps.

Triangle A'B'C' is the image of ABC under a dilation with a scale factor of 2.
What length of segment A'B?

Answers

The length of segment A'B' from the triangle A'B'C' is 6 units.

Given that, triangle A'B'C' is the image of ABC under a dilation with a scale factor of 2.

In the given triangle ABC, AB=3 units

The basic formula to find the scale factor of a figure is expressed as,

Scale factor = Dimensions of the new shape ÷ Dimensions of the original shape.

2=Dimensions of the new shape/3

Dimensions of the new shape=6 units

Therefore, the length of segment A'B' from the triangle A'B'C' is 6 units.

If a rectangle has length x and width x+3, what is the perimeter of the rectangle in terms of x?

Answers

Answer:

[tex]4x+6[/tex] units

Step-by-step explanation:

Skills needed to solve: Order of Operations, Distributive Property, Perimeter Formula, Like Terms

1) To solve this problem, you need to understand the perimeter formula, and that is:

--> [tex]P = 2(L+W)[/tex]

P = Perimeter

L = Length

W = Width

2) Based on that, we are given that:

[tex]L = x[/tex] (since the length is x)

[tex]W = x+3[/tex] (since the width is x+3)

3) After that, we substitute in the values:

[tex]P = 2(L+W)[/tex]

[tex]P = 2(x+(x+3))[/tex]

[tex]x + (x+3) = x+x+3 = 2x+3[/tex] (with like terms and addition)

so: [tex]P=2(2x+3)[/tex]

Use distributive property, which is [tex]a(b+c) = ab+ac[/tex]

get: [tex]2(2x+3) = 2(2x) + 2(3)[/tex]

[tex]2(2x) = 4x[/tex]

[tex]2(3) = 6[/tex]

So: [tex]P = 4x+6[/tex]

A real estate agent has 17 properties that she shows. She feels that there is a 50% chance of selling any one property during a week. The chance of selling any one property is independent of selling another property. Compute the probability of selling less than 3 properties in one week. Round your answer to four decimal places.

Answers

Answer:

0.0011 = 0.11% probability of selling less than 3 properties in one week.

Step-by-step explanation:

For each property, there are only two possible outcomes. Either they are sold, or they are not. The chance of selling any one property is independent of selling another property. This means that the binomial probability distribution is used to solve this question.

Binomial probability distribution

The binomial probability is the probability of exactly x successes on n repeated trials, and X can only have two outcomes.

[tex]P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}[/tex]

In which [tex]C_{n,x}[/tex] is the number of different combinations of x objects from a set of n elements, given by the following formula.

[tex]C_{n,x} = \frac{n!}{x!(n-x)!}[/tex]

And p is the probability of X happening.

A real estate agent has 17 properties that she shows.

This means that [tex]n = 17[/tex]

She feels that there is a 50% chance of selling any one property during a week.

This means that [tex]p = 0.5[/tex]

Compute the probability of selling less than 3 properties in one week.

This is

[tex]P(X < 3) = P(X = 0) + P(X = 1) + P(X = 2)[/tex]

In which

[tex]P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}[/tex]

[tex]P(X = 0) = C_{17,0}.(0.5)^{0}.(0.5)^{17} \approx 0[/tex]

[tex]P(X = 1) = C_{17,1}.(0.5)^{1}.(0.5)^{16} = 0.0001[/tex]

[tex]P(X = 2) = C_{17,2}.(0.5)^{2}.(0.5)^{15} = 0.0010[/tex]

[tex]P(X < 3) = P(X = 0) + P(X = 1) + P(X = 2) = 0 + 0.0001 + 0.0010 = 0.0011[/tex]

0.0011 = 0.11% probability of selling less than 3 properties in one week.

As the student council treasurer, you prepare the budget for your class rafting trip. Each large raft

solve a linear equation to find the number of small rafts you can rent if you rent 12 large rafts.

Answers

Answer:

10 small rafts

Step-by-step explanation:

(1600- 1200) / 40 = 10

1600- 1200 = 400

400 / 40 = 10

12 large rafts costs $1200 so subtract that amount from you budget. If you do that you will have $400 left. So I divided $400 by the amount of money each small raft cost whitch was $40 per small raft so i got the quotient of 10.

What is the upper quartile?
helppp

Answers

Answer:

UQ = 185

Step-by-step explanation:

the median separates the data set into the lower quartile and upper quartile

The median of this data set is 151

The lower quartile is the median of the lowest five values, or 132

The upper quartile is the median of the highest five values, or 185

The upper quartile score for highest half of the score is 185.

What is median?

A median is the center value of a given list of observations when arranged in an order. The median is the middle number in a sorted, ascending or descending, list of numbers and can be more descriptive of that data set than the average.

For the given situation,

Xavier's bowling scores: 132, 140, 130, 190, 112, 200, 185, 172, 163, 151, 149.

Arrange this scores in the ascending order to find the median.

⇒ [tex]112, 130, 132, 140, 149, 151, 163, 172, 185, 190, 200[/tex].

There are totally 11 scores.

So the median is middle most number, that is 5th score in the list.

The median is [tex]151[/tex].

The scores after 151 are highest half scores. Now there are five scores.

Upper quartile scores list are [tex]163,172,185,190,200[/tex].

Thus, the middle most score [tex]185[/tex] is the upper quartile score.

Hence we can conclude that the upper quartile score for highest half of the score is 185.
