The 80% confidence interval is 1501 to 1599 square feet, indicating with 80% confidence that the true population mean of square feet per house falls within this range based on the sample data.

Based on the given information, we can calculate the 80% confidence interval for the true population mean of the number of square feet per house using the sample mean of 1550 square feet and the population standard deviation of 154 square feet. The interval is 1501 to 1599 square feet. This means that if we were to repeat the sampling process and construct confidence intervals in the same way for an infinite number of times, approximately 80% of these intervals would contain the true population mean. Therefore, we can estimate with 80% confidence that the true population mean falls within the range of 1501 to 1599 square feet.

In the event that a monopolistic firm takes over superbly competitive advertising, we would anticipate seeing the advertising cost of the great rise and the amount sold drop.

Be that as it may, when a monopolistic firm takes over the showcase, it picks up showcase control and the capacity to impact the cost. The monopolist can charge a better cost than the competitive advertising cost since there are no near substitutes for its item. As the monopolist raises the cost, the amount requested will drop, as customers switch to substitutes or decrease their utilization of the item.

The probability that the sample contains exactly two defective parts is 0.0058.

We may utilize the binomial probability formula to resolve this issue:

P(X = k) is equal to (n pick k) * p * k * (1-p) (n-k)

where n is the sample size, k denotes the number of successes, p denotes the likelihood that a success will occur, and (n pick k) denotes the binomial coefficient, which indicates the number of possible ways to select item k from n.

Here, n = 5, k = 2, and p = 0.025 (due to the fact that 2.5% of the pieces are flawed).

P(X = 2) therefore equals (5 pick 2)*0.025*2*(1 - 0.025)*3

We calculate P(X = 2) = 0.0058 using a calculator.

As a result, there is a 0.0058 percent chance that the sample has exactly two defective components.

the angles which are formed in matching corners or corresponding corners with the transversal when two parallel lines are intersected by any other line

Answer:

x = 8, y = 3

Step-by-step explanation:

Assuming the figure is a parallelogram, opposite sides on a parallelogram are equal.

This means that 3x-2 = 2x+6 and 3y-5 = y+1.

To solve these equations:

3x-2 = 2x+6 (collect like terms)

3x-2x = 6+2

x = 8

3y-5 = y+1 (collect like terms)

3y-y = 1+5

2y = 6 (divide both sides by 2)

y = 3

Step-by-step explanation:

The optimal policy for the new owner is to invest in large-scale production. This decision branch has the highest expected utility of $4.285m.

The initial node represents the decision whether to invest in the development of the microbiological product.

The two possible outcomes are a successful development or failure after 2 years.

(b) To determine the policy that the company should adopt to maximize its expected returns, we need to calculate the expected value at each decision node.

Starting from the end nodes and working backwards, we have:

For large-scale production with high sales:

Expected value = 0.75 x $6m + 0.25 x $1m = $4.25m

For large-scale production with low sales:

Expected value = 0.75 x $1m + 0.25 x $6m = $1.75m

For small-scale production with high sales:

Expected value = 0.75 x $4m + 0.25 x $2m = $3.5m

For small-scale production with low sales:

Expected value = 0.75 x $2m + 0.25 x $4m = $1.75m

At the 2-year node, the expected value for a successful development is:

For large-scale production:

Expected value = 0.75 x $4.25m + 0.25 x $1.75m = $3.5m

For small-scale production:

Expected value = 0.75 x $3.5m + 0.25 x $1.75m = $2.81m

Finally, at the initial node, the expected value for investing in the development is:

Expected value = 0.6 x $3.5m + 0.4 x (-$3m) = $0.1m

Therefore, the policy that the company should adopt to maximize its expected returns is to invest in the development of the microbiological product, choose large-scale production if the development is successful, and choose small-scale production otherwise.

(c) If the probability of a successful development is lower than a certain threshold, the option of not developing the product should be chosen. Let p be this threshold probability. Then the expected value at the initial node is:

Expected value = p x $0m + (1-p) x (-$3m) = -$3m + $3mp

Setting this equal to zero and solving for p, we get:

p = 1

Therefore, if the probability of a successful development is lower than 100%, the company should not invest in the development of the microbiological product.

(d) The new owner's utilities represent their preferences for the sums of money involved in the decision.

The utilities are increasing and concave, indicating diminishing marginal utility of money.

This means that the new owner is risk-averse.

The policy identified in (b) may not be optimal for the new owner because their utilities are different from the present-value net returns.

To determine the optimal policy for the new owner, we need to use the new owner's utility values to calculate the expected utility of each decision branch in the decision tree.

If the company invests in large-scale production and high sales are achieved, the expected utility is 0.75 * 0.95 * 1.0 * $6m = $4.285m.

If the company invests in large-scale production and low sales are achieved, the expected utility is 0.75 * 0.95 * (1 - 0.0) * $1m = $712,500.

If the company invests in small-scale production and high sales are achieved, the expected utility is 0.75 * 0.05 * 1.0 * $4m = $150,000.

If the company invests in small-scale production and low sales are achieved, the expected utility is 0.75 * 0.05 * (1 - 0.0) * $2m = $75,000.

If the company decides not to invest in the product, the expected utility is 0.25 * (1 - 0.6) * $0m + 0.25 * 0.6 * (1 - 0.0) * -$3m = -$450,000.

Therefore, the optimal policy for the new owner is to invest in large-scale production. This decision branch has the highest expected utility of $4.285m.

As a result, if a bicycle covers 50 miles in 25 minutes, their speed is 120 miles per hour.

Speed is defined in physics as the distance covered in a unit of time. What determines the velocity vector's magnitude is a scalar quantity. An item is said to be travelling faster or slower depending on its speed. It has zero speed if it isn't moving at all.

Therefore, a bicycle travelling 50 miles in 25 minutes is moving at a speed of 120 miles per hour.

Miles might mean two different things. As a noun, it refers to a linear measurement unit that is 1,760 yard. It also has the adverbial meanings of greatly or far.

When the distance is 50 miles, the relationship between speed, s, and time, t, can be written as follows:

s = d/t

where d is the distance traveled, and t is the time it takes.

The distance is 50 miles in this instance, and the travel time is 25 minutes, or 25/60 hours.

When we enter these values into the formula above, we obtain:

120 miles per hour is equal to s = 50/(25/60).

Number of horses = 2x

Number of cows = 8x

Let us start by assigning variables to each type of animal on the farm. Let's say the number of pigs is "x".

From the problem statement, we know that there are twice as many horses as pigs. Therefore, the number of horses would be 2x.

Further, we know that there are four times as many cows as horses. So, the number of cows would be 4 times the number of horses. Mathematically, we can represent it as:

Number of cows = 4 * Number of horses

Or, Number of cows = 4 * (2x) = 8x

Therefore, we have the number of each type of animal on the farm as follows:

Number of pigs = x

Number of horses = 2x

Number of cows = 8x

Joel cannot make a right triangle with the current lengths of fencing.

A right triangle is a triangle that has one angle that measures exactly 90 degrees (a right angle). This means that the other two angles of the triangle are acute (measuring less than 90 degrees). The side opposite the right angle is called the hypotenuse, and it is always the longest side of the triangle. The other two sides are called the legs of the triangle.

To check if Joel can make a right triangle with the current lengths of fencing, we can use the Pythagorean theorem, which states that in a right triangle, the sum of the squares of the lengths of the two shorter sides (legs) is equal to the square of the length of the longest side (hypotenuse).

So, let's check if the measurements satisfy the Pythagorean theorem:

8²  + 15² = 64 + 225 = 289

20²  = 400

According to the Pythagorean theorem, a triangle with sides of length 8 ft, 15 ft, and 20 ft would be a right triangle if it satisfies the equation a²  + b²  = c² , where a and b are the shorter sides (legs) and c is the longest side (hypotenuse). However, in this case, we can see that the sum of the squares of the shorter sides (8²  + 15² ) is not equal to the square of the longest side (20² ), so the measurements cannot form a right triangle.

Variance = p(1-p)n

Where p is the probability of getting a question wrong (0.5), and n is the number of questions (11).

Variance = 0.5(1-0.5)11 = 1.375

Finally, we can find the standard deviation by taking the square root of the variance:
