A restaurant operator in Accra has found out that during the partial lockdown, if she sells a plate of her food for GH¢20 each, she can sell 300 plates, but for each GH¢5 she raises the price, 10 less plates are sold.
Draw a table of cost relating to number of plates using 6 values of cost and its corresponding number of plates bought.

What price in GH¢ should she sell the plates to maximize her revenue?​

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

First, note this parameters from the question.

We let x = number of $5 increases and number of 10 decreases in plates sold.

Our Revenue equation is:

R(x) = (300-10x)(10+5x)

We expand the above equation into a quadratic equation by multiplying each bracket:

R(x) = 3000 + 1500x - 3000x - 1500x^2

R(x) = -1500x^2 - 1500x + 3000 (collect like terms)

Next we simplify, by dividing through by -1500

= 1500x^2/1500 - 1500x/1500 + 3000/1500

= X^2 - x + 2

X^2 - x + 2 = 0

Next, we find the axis of symmetry using the formula x = -b/(2*a) where b = 1, a = 1

X = - (-1)/2*1

X = 1/2

Number of $5 increases = $5x1/2 = $2.5

=$2.5 + $20 = $22.5 ticket price gives max revenue.

Answer:

[tex]\boxed{x^2+y^2 = 49}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

First, we'll find the length of the radius using distance formula and the coordinates (0,0) and (7,0)

Distance Formula = [tex]\sqrt{(x2-x1)^2+(y2-y1)^2}[/tex]

R = [tex]\sqrt{(7-0)^2+(0-0)^2}[/tex]

R = [tex]\sqrt{7^2}[/tex]

Radius = 7 units

Now, Equation of circle:

[tex](x-a)^2+(y-b)^2 = R^2[/tex]

Where (a,b) = (0,0) So, a = 0, b = 0 and R = 7 units

=> [tex](x-0)^2+(y-0)^2 = (7)^2[/tex]

=> [tex]x^2+y^2 = 49[/tex]

This is the required equation of the circle.

Answer:

x^2 + y^2 = 49

Step-by-step explanation:

We can write the equation of a circle as

( x-h) ^2 + ( y-k) ^2 = r^2

where ( h,k) is the center and r is the radius

The radius is the distance from the center to a point on the circle

(0,0) to (7,0) is 7 units

so the the radius is 7

( x-0) ^2 + ( y-0) ^2 = 7^2

x^2 + y^2 = 49

The temperature is 58° F. It gets warmer by h degrees and reaches to 65° F. Find h.

Answers

Answer:

h = 7 degrees

Step-by-step explanation:

To find h, we know that it is positive because it increases in value, not decreases:

h = 65 - 58

h = 7

Answer:

h = 7°F

Step-by-step explanation:

58 + h = 65

h = 65 - 58

h = 7

Check:

68 + 7 = 65

Answers

Answer:  4:9

Step-by-step explanation:

The complete question is provide in the attachment below.

Given, Number of females = 125

Number of males = 100

Total people = 120+100=225

Now, the ratio of males to the total number of people present = [tex]\dfrac{\text{Total number of males}}{\text{Total people}}[/tex]

[tex]=\dfrac{100}{225}[/tex]

Which of the following lines are parallel to 2Y - 3X = 4?

A. Y = 2/3 X + 4
B. Y = 6/4 X
C. 2Y=8-3X

Answers

Answer:

B. Y = 6/4 X

Step-by-step explanation:

Well to find its parallel line we need to put,

2y - 3x = 4 into slope-intercept.

+3x to both sides

2y = 3x + 4

Now we divide everything by 2,

y = 3/2x + 2

So a line that is parallel to the given line will have the same slope but different y intercept, meaning we can cross out choices A and C.

To check look at the image below ↓

Thus,

answer choice B. Y = 6/4 X is correct.

C : A salesperson earns $50 plus $10 for every $100 of merchandise he sells.

D : The amount bacteria double every hour.

Answers

Answer:

C : A salesperson earns $50 plus $10 for every $100 of merchandise he sells.

Step-by-step explanation:

If a salesperson earns $50 plus $10 for every $100 of merchandise he sells, the rate of change is 100. The linear equation is T = 50 + 100h, where T is the total amount he earns and h is the number of $100 in merchandise he sells.

The example that represents the constant rate will be a salesperson who earns $50 plus $10 for every $100 of merchandise he sells. Then the correct option is C.

For the following information, determine whether a normal sampling distribution can be used, where p is the population proportion, is the level of significance, p is the sample proportion, and n is the sample size.

Claim: p >=0.28; α:0.08. Sample statistics: p=0.20, n= 180

Required:
If a normal sampling distribution can be used, decide whether to reject or fail to reject the null hypothesis and interpret the decision.

Answers

Answer:

The Central Limit Theorem says that if the sample size is more than 30, the data follows a normal sampling distribution. Since the sample size is 180, and that is more than 30, a Normal sampling distribution can be used.

Since a normal sampling distribution can be used, we should FAIL TO REJECT the null hypothesis because p = 0.20, which is more than the significance level of α = 0.08. There is NOT sufficient evidence to suggest that the alternative hypothesis is true.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

[tex]Population = 1013[/tex]

Let p represents the proportion of those who worry about identity theft;

[tex]p = 66\%[/tex]

Required

Mean of those who do not worry about identity theft

First, the proportion of those who do not worry, has to be calculated;

Represent this with q

In probability;

[tex]p + q = 1[/tex]

Make q the subject of formula

[tex]q = 1 - p[/tex]

Substitute [tex]p = 66\%[/tex]

[tex]q = 1 - 66\%[/tex]

Convert percentage to fraction

[tex]q = 1 - 0.66[/tex]

[tex]q = 0.34[/tex]

Now, the mean can be calculated using:

[tex]Mean = nq[/tex]

Where n represents the population

While some locations in that swath saw over a foot of snow, let’s assume the average depth of the snow over this area was 8 inches. If the total area covered by the 8 inch average depth was 72,150 square miles, what percentage of the volume of the Grand Canyon would this amount of snow fill?

Answers

Answer:

Percentage volume of the Grand Canyon filled by the snow = 0.911 %

Step-by-step explanation:

This question is incomplete; please find the complete question in the attachment.

Given :

Area of the snow cover = 72150 square miles

Depth of the snow = 8 inches

Volume of the Grand Canyon = 4.166 × 101² m³

Solution:

Area of the snow cover = 72150 square miles

≈ 72150 × 2589988 square meter

≈ 1.868 × 10¹¹ square meter

Depth of the snow = 8 inches ≈ 0.2032 m

Volume of the snow on this area = Area × depth of the snow

                                                       = 1.868 × 10¹¹ × 0.2032

                                                       = 3.796 × 10¹⁰ m³

Volume of the Grand Canyon = 4.166 × 10¹² m³

Percentage volume of the Grand Canyon filled by the snow

= [tex]\frac{\text{Volume of the snow}}{\text{Volume of the Grand Canyon}}\times 100[/tex]

= [tex]\frac{3.796\times 10^{10} }{4.166\times 10^{12} }\times 100[/tex]

According to the World Health Organization (WHO) Child Growth Standards, the head circumference for boys at birth is normally distributed with a mean of 34.5cm and a standard deviation of 1.3cm. What is the probability that a boy has a head circumference greater than 36.32cm at birth

Answers

Answer:

0.081

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve this question, we would use the z score formula

z score = (x-μ)/σ, where

x is the raw score = 36.32cm

μ is the population mean = 34.5 cm

σ is the population standard deviation = 1.3cm

z score = (36.32cm - 34.5cm)/1.3cm

z = 1.4

Using the normal distribution to find the z score for 1.4

P(z = 1.4) = 0.91924

Therefore, the probability that a boy has a head circumference greater than 36.32cm at birth is

P(x>36.32) = 1 - P(z = 1.4)

= 1 - 0.91924

= 0.080757

Approximately ≈ 0.081
