A baseball team plays in a stadium that holds 58000 spectators. With the ticket price at $12 the average attendance has been 25000. When the price dropped to $9, the average attendance rose to 29000. Assume that attendance is linearly related to ticket price.

Required:
a. Find the demand function p(x), where x is the number of the spectators.
b. How should ticket prices be set to maximize revenue?

Answers

Answer:

We need to assume that the relationship is linear.

a) Remember that a linear relation is written as:

y = a*x + b

then we will have:

p(x) = a*x + b

where a is the slope and b is the y-intercept.

If we know that the line passes through the points (a, b) and (c, d), then the slope can be written as:

y = (d - b)/(c - a)

In this case, we know that:

if the ticket has a price of $12, the average attendance is 25,000

Then we can define this with the point:

(25,000 , $12)

We also know that when the price is $9, the attendance is 29,000

This can be represented with the point:

(29,000, $9)

Then we can find the slope as:

a = ($9 - $12)/(29,000 - 25,000) = -$3/4,000 = -$0.00075

Then the equation is something like:

y = (-$0.00075)*x + b

to find the value of b we can use one of the known points.

For example, the point (25,000 , $12) means that when x = 25,000, the price is $12

then:

$12 = (-$0.00075)*25,000 + b

$12 = -$18.75 + b

$12 + $18.75 = b

$30.75 = b

Then the equation is:

p(x) = (-$0.00075)*x + $30.75

b) We want to find the ticket price such that it maximizes the revenue.

The revenue will be equal to the price per ticket, p(x) times the total attendance, x.

Then the revenue can be written as:

r(x) = x*p(x) = x*( (-$0.00075)*x + $30.75 )

r(x) =  (-$0.00075)*x^2 + $30.75*x

So we want to find the maximum revenue.

Notice that this is a quadratic equation with a negative leading coefficient, thus the maximum will be at the vertex.

Remember that for an equation like:

y = a*x^2 + bx + c

the x-value of the vertex is:

x = -b/2a

Then in our case, the x-value will be:

x = -$30.75/(2*(-$0.00075)) = 20,500

Then the revenue is maximized for x = 20,500

And the price for this x-vale is given by:

p( 20,500) =  (-$0.00075)*20,500 + $30.75 = $15.375

which should be rounded to $15.38

Answers

Answer:

no solution

Step-by-step explanation:

multiply 2 and get 2x^2+18-4=0

combine like terms

2x^2+14=0

subtract 14

2x^2=-14

there can't be a square root of a negative number so there's no solution

Answer:

x = ±i sqrt(7)

Step-by-step explanation:

2(x^2+9)-4=0

Add 4 to each side

2(x^2+9)-4+4=0+4

2(x^2+9)=4

Divide by 2

2(x^2+9)/2=4/2

(x^2+9)=2

Subtract 9 from each side

x^2 +9-9 = 2-9

x^2 = -7

Taking the square root of each side

sqrt(x^2) =sqrt(-7)

x = sqrt(-1 *7)

x = ±i sqrt(7)

If f(x) is an exponential function where f(-1.5) 26 and
f(5.5) = 7, then find the value of f(10), to the nearest hundredth.

Answers

Answer:

[tex]f(10) = 1147.25[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

[tex]f(-1.5) = 26[/tex]

[tex]f(5.5) = 7[/tex]

Required

f(10)

An exponential function is represented as:

[tex]f(x) = ab^x[/tex]

[tex]f(-1.5) = 26[/tex] impleies that:

[tex]26 = ab^{-1.5}[/tex] --- (1)

[tex]f(5.5) = 7[/tex] implies that

[tex]7 = ab^{5.5}[/tex] --- (2)

Divide (2) by (1)

[tex]26/7 = ab^{-1.5}/ab^{5.5}[/tex]

[tex]3.71429 = b^{-1.5+5.5}[/tex]

[tex]3.71429 = b^{4}[/tex]

Take 4th root

[tex]b = 1.39[/tex]

Substitute [tex]b = 1.39[/tex] in [tex]26 = ab^{-1.5}[/tex]

[tex]26 = a * 1.39^{-1.5}[/tex]

[tex]26 = a * 0.6102[/tex]

Solve for (a)

[tex]a = 26/0.6102[/tex]

[tex]a = 42.61[/tex]

f(10) is calculated as:

[tex]f(10) = ab^{10}[/tex]

[tex]f(10) = 42.61 * 1.39^{10}[/tex]

[tex]f(10) = 1147.25[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

A t-test is used by a scientist to compare the average beta-lactamase of two distinct strains of bacteria. The Levene equality test does have a p-value of 0.01. Researchers know that all this means that research should report t-test findings with a failed assumption of identical variances because the Log-rank equality test has a p-value of 0.01 of less than 0.05 that shows different twp population variance.

Answers

9514 1404 393

Answer:

$137.90 more each month$246.00 less total interest

Step-by-step explanation:

The amortization formula is ...

  A = P(r/12)/(1 -(1 +r/12)^(-12t))

for the monthly payment on principal P at annual rate r for t years. Here, we have P=3300, r = 0.14, and t=1, so the monthly payment is ...

  A = $3300(0.14/12)/(1 -(1 +0.14/12)^-12) ≈ $296.30

The payment of $296.30 is ...

  $295.30 -158.40 = $137.90 . . . more each month

The total amount paid is 12×$296.30 = $3555.60, so 255.60 in interest. This amount is ...

  $501.60 -255.60 = $246.00 . . . less total interest

Step-by-step explanation:

It says that f(x) is equal to -3.

f(x) is the same as y-values, and x is the same as the x-values on a coordinate grid because x is the independent variable, meaning y is the dependent variable, where f(x) depends on the value of x to find y.

So if y is -3, it can be found on the graph on the 4th line, so x = -1 when y = -3

a. Fail to reject the null hypothesis
b. Reject the null hypothesis

Answers

We are testing a hypothesis. So, first we identify the null and the alternative hypothesis, then we find the test statistic, and with the test statistic, the p-value is found.

Null and alternative hypothesis:

Claim the the proportion is of 60%, thus, the null hypothesis is:

[tex]H_0: p = 0.6[/tex]

Test if the proportion is greater than 60%, thus, the alternative hypothesis is:

[tex]H_1: p > 0.6[/tex]

And the answer to the first question is given by option c.

Classification:

We are testing if the proportion is greater than a value, so it is a right-tailed test.

Test statistic:

[tex]z = \frac{X - \mu}{\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}}[/tex]

In which X is the sample mean, [tex]\mu[/tex] is the value tested at the null hypothesis, [tex]\sigma[/tex] is the standard deviation and n is the size of the sample.

0.6 is tested at the null hypothesis:

This means that [tex]\mu = 0.6, \sigma = \sqrt{0.4*0.6}[/tex]

Survey, conducted over a two week period, found that in a sample of 100 people, 69% of them said they are confident of meeting their goals.

This means that [tex]n = 100, X = 0.69[/tex]

Value of the test statistic:

[tex]z = \frac{X - \mu}{\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}}[/tex]

[tex]z = \frac{0.69 - 0.6}{\frac{\sqrt{0.4*0.6}}{\sqrt{100}}}[/tex]

[tex]z = 1.837[/tex]

The test statistic is z = 1.837.

p-value:

The p-value of the test is the probability of finding a sample proportion above 0.69, which is 1 subtracted by the p-value of z = 1.837.

Looking at the z-table, z = 1.837 has a p-value of 0.9669.

1 - 0.9669 = 0.0331

The p-value is 0.0331.

Decision:

The p-value of the test is 0.0331 > 0.01, and thus:

a. Fail to reject the null hypothesis

find the exact value of tan(165°) using a difference of two angles

Answers

Answer:  [tex]-2+\sqrt{3}[/tex]

=========================================================

Work Shown:

Apply the following trig identity

[tex]\tan(A - B) = \frac{\tan(A)-\tan(B)}{1+\tan(A)*\tan(B)}\\\\\tan(225 - 60) = \frac{\tan(225)-\tan(60)}{1+\tan(225)*\tan(60)}\\\\\tan(165) = \frac{1-\sqrt{3}}{1+1*\sqrt{3}}\\\\\tan(165) = \frac{1-\sqrt{3}}{1+\sqrt{3}}\\\\[/tex]

Now let's rationalize the denominator

[tex]\tan(165) = \frac{1-\sqrt{3}}{1+\sqrt{3}}\\\\\tan(165) = \frac{(1-\sqrt{3})(1-\sqrt{3})}{(1+\sqrt{3})(1-\sqrt{3})}\\\\\tan(165) = \frac{(1-\sqrt{3})^2}{(1)^2-(\sqrt{3})^2}\\\\\tan(165) = \frac{(1)^2-2*1*\sqrt{3}+(\sqrt{3})^2}{(1)^2-(\sqrt{3})^2}\\\\\tan(165) = \frac{1-2\sqrt{3}+3}{1-3}\\\\\tan(165) = \frac{4-2\sqrt{3}}{-2}\\\\\tan(165) = -2+\sqrt{3}\\\\[/tex]

----------------------

As confirmation, you can use the idea that if x = y, then x-y = 0. We'll have x = tan(165) and y = -2+sqrt(3). When computing x-y, your calculator should get fairly close to 0, if not get 0 itself.

Or you can note how

[tex]\tan(165) \approx -0.267949\\\\-2+\sqrt{3} \approx -0.267949[/tex]

which helps us see that they are the same thing.

Further confirmation comes from WolframAlpha (see attached image). They decided to write the answer as [tex]\sqrt{3}-2[/tex] but it's the same as above.

A textbook store sold a combined total of 473 chemistry and sociology textbooks in a week. The number of sociology textbooks sold was 59 less than the number of chemistry textbooks sold. How many textbooks of each type were sold?

Answers

Answer:

I. C = 266 textbooks.

II. S = 207 textbooks.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the chemistry textbook be C.

Let the sociology textbook be S.

Translating the word problem into an algebraic expression, we have;

C + S = 473 ..... equation 1

S = C - 59 ..... equation 2

Substituting eqn 2 into eqn 1, we have;

C + C - 59 = 473

2C - 59 = 473

2C = 473 + 59

2C = 532

C = 532/2

C = 266 textbooks.

Next, we would determine the value of S;

S = C - 59

S = 266 - 59

S = 207 textbooks.

Check:

C + S = 473

266 + 207 = 473

473 = 473

Use the substitution methed to solve the system of equations. Choose the correct ordered pair.
