Answer:
His salary will be of $343.
Step-by-step explanation:
Frederick's salary varies directly with the hours he works.
This means that this question can be solved by proportions, using a rule of three.
We have that:
For 33.5 hours, he earned $328.30. How much he earns for 35 hours?
33.5 hours - $328.30
35 hours - $x
Applying cross multiplication:
[tex]33.5x = 328.30*35[/tex]
[tex]x = \frac{328.30*35}{33.5}[/tex]
[tex]x = 343[/tex]
His salary will be of $343.
(a) For real applications, the normal distribution has two potential drawbacks: (1) it can be negative, and (2) it isn’t symmetric. Choose some continuous random numeric outcomes of interest to you. Are either potential drawbacks really drawbacks for your random outcomes? If so, which is the more serious drawbacks and why?
(b) Many basketball players and fans believe strongly in the “hot hand.” That is, they believe that players tend to shoot in streaks, either makes or misses. If this is the case, why does the binomial distribution not apply, at least not exactly, to the number of makes in a given number of shots? Which assumption of the binomial model is violated, the independence of successive shots, or the constant probability of success on each shot? Or can you tell? Explain your reasoning.
(c) Your company needs to make an important decision that involves large monetary consequences. You have listed all of the possible outcomes and the monetary payoffs and costs from all outcomes and all potential decisions. You want to use the EMV criterion, but you realize that this requires probabilities and you see no way to find the required probabilities. What can you do?
(d) If your company makes a particular decision in the face of uncertainty, you estimate that it will either gain $10,000, gain $1000, or lose $5000, with probabilities 0.40, 0.30, and 0.30, respectively. You (correctly) calculate the EMV as $2800. However, you distrust the use of this EMV for decision-making purposes. After all, you reason that you will never receive $2800, you will receive $10,000, $1000, or lose $5000. Discuss this reasoning.
(e) In the previous question, suppose you have the option of receiving a check for $2700 instead of making the risky decision described. Would you make the risky decision, where you could lose $5000, or would you take the sure $2700? What would influence your decision?
(f) A potentially huge hurricane is forming in the Caribbean, and there is some chance that it might make a direct hit on Hilton Head Island, South Carolina, where you are in charge of emergency preparedness. You have made plans for evacuating everyone from the island, but duh n evacuation is obviously costly and upsetting for all involved, so the decision to evacuate shouldn’t be made lightly. Discuss how you make such a decision. Is EMV a relevant concept in this situation? How would you evaluate the consequences of uncertain outcomes?
(g) You often hear about the trade-off between risk and reward. Is this trade-off part of the decision making under uncertainty when the decision-maker uses the EMV criterion? For example, how does this work in investment decisions?
(h) Under what conditions would you prefer a simple exponential smoothing model to the moving averages method for forecasting a time series? Explain your reasoning!

Factor this trinomial.
x2 + x - 2
A. (x-2)(x - 1)
B. (x-2)(x + 1)
C. (x + 2)(x - 1)
D. (x + 2)(x+1)
SA
Answer:
factoring this trinomial of x2 + x - 2? i got you covered. it's good that this is a multiple choice question because you can work backwards. the answer is C because all you have to do is first multiply the 2 x's to make x to the power of two. then you multiply the first x with -1 to make -x. then you make 2x by multiplying the 2 with x and -2 by multiplying 2 by -1. then you combine the common factors.
Step-by-step explanation:
(x + 2)(x - 1)
(x)(x) = x2
2 x -1 = -2
x2 - x + 2x -2
x2 + x - 2

A rectangle is fenced off for a robot competition. The dimensions of the competition area are 35 feet by 25 feet. To help track the robots, the southwest vertex of the rectangle is assigned coordinates (0, 0) and the northeast vertex is assigned coordinates (35, 25). The robot that traveled from (3, 18) and moved in a linear path for 5 seconds. After 5 seconds, the robot’s position was at (31, 6). What is the approximate speed of the robot during the 5 seconds? Give your answer to the nearest whole number.
Answer:
The approximate speed of the robot during the 5 seconds is:
6 ft/sStep-by-step explanation:
To calculate the speed of the robot, you must begin with the positions, the first position (3, 18) and the second position (31, 6), you can see, in the height it moved from 3 to 31, it means 28 feet, in the width it moves from 18 to 6, it means 12 feet, with these data you can construct a triangle where you have the opposite leg and adjacent leg, now you must calculate the hypotenuse, because it is the linear path from the first position to the second position that the robot took, for this, you can use the Pythagoras theorem:
[tex]hypotenuse^{2}[/tex] = [tex]opposite leg^{2}[/tex] + [tex]adjacent leg^{2}[/tex][tex]hypotenuse^{2}[/tex] = [tex]12^{2} +28^{2}[/tex][tex]hypotenuse=\sqrt{ 12^{2}+28^{2} }[/tex][tex]hypotenuse=30.46 ft[/tex]With the value of the distance traveled, and the time used (5 seconds), we can calculate the speed with the next formula:
[tex]Speed =\frac{distance}{time}[/tex][tex]Speed = \frac{30.46 ft}{5 s}[/tex]Speed = 6.09 ft/sAs you need the speed in the nearest whole number, then:
Speed = 6 ft/sA baseball player reaches first base 30% of the times he is at bat. Out of 50
times at bat, about how many times will the player reach first base?
(write a proportion)
Answer:
15 timesStep-by-step explanation:
The proportion is:
k = 30% = 30/10 = 3/10Out of 50 times, the player will reach first base:
50*3/10 = 15 timesTotal times
30% of 5030/100(50)0.3(50)15timesProportion

$1000 is invested at 2.9% annual interest for 6 months.
a. Simple Interest b. Compound Interest
Answer:
a. Simple interest = $174
b. Compund interest = $1187.1
Step-by-step explanation:
Given the following data;
Principal, P = $1000
Interest, R = 2.9%
Time, T = 6 months
a. To find the simple interest;
S.I = (PRT)/100
S.I = (1000*2.9*6)/100
S.I = 17400/100
S.I = $174
b. To find the compound interest;
[tex] A = P(1 + \frac{r}{100})^{t}[/tex]
Substituting into the formula, we have;
[tex] A = 1000(1 + \frac{2.9}{100})^{6}[/tex]
[tex] A = 1000(1 + 0.029)^{6} [/tex]
[tex] A = 1000(1.029)^{6} [/tex]
[tex] A = 1000(1.1871)[/tex]
A = $1187.1
What is the answer to this
Answer:
4)
Step-by-step explanation:
This is in standard form. To change it to slope-intercept form, you would divide 2x by 3y and you would divide 6 by 3y. That would make the equation y = [tex]\frac{2}{3}[/tex]x + 2. y = mx + b, and slope = m, so on answer choice 4, slope would equal [tex]\frac{2}{3}[/tex].

Answer:
y = 4;
y = 7;
x = 6
Step-by-step explanation:
Given the rule, y = x/2, find the missing values as shown below:
✔️For the first row, to find y, substitute x = 8 into y = x/2,
y = 8/2
y = 4
✔️For the second row, to find y, substitute x = 14 into y = x/2,
y = 14/2
y = 7
✔️For the third row, to find x, substitute y = 3 into y = x/2,
3 = x/2
3*2 = x
6 = x
x = 6

Help please make the letter in the brackets the subject of each formula
Answer:
v - u = 10t
t = 1/10x(v-u)
2. 1/6 x (m - 19) = n
3. u = d/t - at
4.- 1/6 x (A - P)
T = 2.5
Step-by-step explanation:
v = u + 10t
v- u = 10t
divide both sides of the equation by 10
t = 1/10x(v-u)
2. m = 6n + 19
subtract 19 from both sides of the equation
m - 19 = 6n
divide both sides of the equation by 6
1/6 x (m - 19) = n
3. d = ut + at²
subtract at² from both sides of the equation
d - at² = ut
divide both sides of the equation by t
(d/t) - at = u
4. P = A - 6D
subtract A from both sides of the equation
P - A = -6D
divide both sides of the equation by -6
-1/6(P - A) = D

How many solutions dose x+y=10 x+y=12
Answer:
There are infinite solutions.
Think about it. The equation says essentially:
12 + any number = 12 + any number.
y + 12 = y + 10 + 2
y + 12 = y + 12
y - y = 12 - 12
0 = 12 - 12
0 = 0
