A fast food hamburger restaurant uses 3,500 lbs. of hamburger each week. The manager of the restaurant wants to ensure that the meat is always fresh i.e. the meat should be no more than two days old on average when used. How much hamburger should be kept in the refrigerator as inventory

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

The peak inventory will be 2 sales days of hamburguers, which is equivalent to 7,000 lbs. As they are consumed in 2 days, the average inventory is 3,500 lbs.

Step-by-step explanation:

If the meat should be no more than two days old on average when used, the stock of hamburguer in the refrigerator has to be at most the equivalent to 2 day of sales.

The "2 days old" represents the inventory turnover.

If we use all the hamburguers in the refrigerator and refill inmediatly, the average inventory is:

[tex]\bar I=\dfrac{\text{Beginning inventory}+\text{Ending inventory}}{2}\\\\\\\bar I=\dfrac{2*3,500+0}{2}=3,500[/tex]

The peak inventory will be 2 sales days of hamburguers, which is equivalent to 7,000 lbs. As they are consumed in 2 days, the average inventory is 3,500 lbs.

Answers

Answer:

I think the complete question should be:

A researcher has developed a new drug designed to reduce blood pressure. In an experiment, 21 subjects were assigned randomly to the treatment group and received the new experimental drug. The other 23 subjects were assigned to the control group and received a standard well known treatment. After a suitable period of time, the reduction in blood pressure for each subject was recorded.

Treatment group n = 21, x1 mean = 23.48, sd = 8.01

Control group n = 23, x2 = 18.52, sd = 7.15

Based on these data, the computed two-sample t statistic is:

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the variances to be calculated from the sd are unequal we use this formula:

t statistics = (x1 - x2) / [(sd1²/n1) + (sd2²/n2) where n1 = 21, x1 mean = 23.48, sd1 = 8.01, n2 = 23, x2 = 18.52, sd2 = 7.15

Thus, we have

test statistic= (23.48-18.52) / [(8.01²/21) + (7.15²/23)]

Test statistics = 4.96 / (324.36/21)+(51.12/23)]

Test statistics = 4.96/ (15.45+2.43)

t statistic = 4.96 / 17.88

t statistics = 0.2774

The shipping worker randomly selected the system without replacement that were delivered from 15 computers in stock. The system contain 4 refurbished computer, with 11 new computers in the warehouse.

If the client gets two new computers, Excell earns RM10,000 profit. If the client gets a refurbished computer, it’s coming back for replacement and Excell must pay the RM400 shipping fee, with leaves RM9,600 profit. If both computers shipped are refurbished, consequently the client will return both and cancel the order. As a result, Excell will be out any profit and left with RM8,000 in shipping cost. Let X be a random variable for the amount of the profit earned on the order.​

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Total Number of Computers=15

Number of New=11

Number of Refurbished Computers=4

P(New)=11/15P(Refurbished)=4/15

[tex]P(NN)=\frac{11}{15} \times \frac{10}{14} = \frac{11}{21}\\P(NR)=\frac{11}{15} \times \frac{4}{14} = \frac{22}{105}\\P(RN)=\frac{4}{15} \times \frac{11}{14} = \frac{22}{105}\\P(RR)=\frac{4}{15} \times \frac{3}{14} = \frac{2}{35}[/tex]

The probability of one new and one refurbished =P(NR)+P(RN)

Use the mathematical induction to prove that 7^n -1 is divisible by 6 whenever n is a positive integer

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

1) first of all, let s check for n = 1

[tex]7^1 -1=7-1=6[/tex]

that s true

2) We assume that this is true for n

[tex]7^n-1[/tex] is divisible by 6

what about [tex]7^{n+1}-1[/tex] ?

we know that there is a k natural so that [tex]7^n-1=6k[/tex]

so [tex]7^n = 1+6k[/tex]

then [tex]7^{n+1} = 7*7^n = 7(1+6k)\\[/tex]

so [tex]7^{n+1}-1 = 7(1+6k)-1 = 6+7*6k = 6(1+7k)[/tex]

so it means that [tex]7^{n+1}-1[/tex] is divisible by 6

3) finally as this is true for n=1 and if this is true for n then it is true for n+1 we can conclude that [tex]7^n-1[/tex] is divisible by 6 for n positive integer

Answers

Answer:

[tex]\fbox{\begin{minipage}{5em}A = 18.3\end{minipage}}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Dan was thinking of a number.

Dan adds 10 to it, then doubles it and gets an answer of 56.6.

Solve for:

Dan's original number

Step 1: Clarify the problem:

Denote Dan's original number as A

Dan adds 10 to A => 10 + A, then

Dan doubles this sum => 2 x (10 + A), then

Dan gets an answer of 56.6 => 2 x (10 + A) = 56.6

Step 2: Solve for the defined equation:

2 x (10 + A) = 56.6

Let's divide both sides of equation by 2:

2 x (10 + A)/2 = 56.6/2

We simplify both sides after division:

10 + A = 28.3

Let's transfer all numbers to the right side, except A (the sign of 10 is changed from + to -)

A = 28.3 - 10

Let's perform the subtraction to get A:

A = 18.3

Step-by-step explanation:

The first statement is false because the price for 10 gallons is about $37 from the graph. Using this same reasoning, the third statement is also false. The last statement doesn't make sense because the graph has nothing to do with the amount of miles driven. Therefore, the answer is the second statement. We can prove it by looking at the point (4, 15). This means that it costs $15 for 4 gallons, so then the price for one gallon will be 15 / 4 = $3.75.

Answers

Answer:

B. You shouldnt take a random sample of more than 5% of the population size.

Step-by-step explanation:

B. You shouldnt take a random sample of more than 5% of the population size. This is True, so as to avoid the research analysis to be more complex to interpret and analyzed

However, the following are not true statements:

A. Random samples only generate unbiased estimates of long-run proportions, not long-run means. This is False, as there may be sampling error, when picking the sample, which will lead to bias estimates in the long run proportions

C. There is no way that a random sample of 100 people can be representative of all adults living in the United States. This is False, as using the right factors such as gender, age, income, etc, in selecting the sample, 100 people is enough to use as sample of adults living in the United States

D. If this question is voted out, the alternate option is "larger samples are always better than smaller samples, regardless of how the sample was collected." This is False, larger samples are not always better than smaller samples. In fact, they are often difficult to analyze and interpret.

E. Nonrandom samples are always poor representations of the population: This is False, depending on the expected outcome of the research study. Some research studies required the research to use Nonrandom samples to reach verifiable conclusion.

if F (x) equals 4x + 7 which of the following is the inverse of F(x)​

Answers

Answer:

  [tex]F^{-1}(x)=\dfrac{x-7}{4}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the inverse function, solve for y the relation ...

  F(y) = x

  4y +7 = x

  4y = x - 7

  y = (x -7)/4 . . . . the inverse function

  [tex]\boxed{F^{-1}(x)=\dfrac{x-7}{4}}[/tex]

Answer: B

4x+7=y

Subtract 7 from both sides

4x=y-7

Divide both sides by 4

x= (y-7)/4

Switch x and y

y= (x-7)/4

adiocarbon dating of blackened grains from the site of ancient Jericho provides a date of 1315 BC ± 13 years for the fall of the city. What is the relative amount of 14C in the old grain vs the new grain in 2007 AD? (A0 = original radioactivity; At = radioactivity in 2007 AD).

Answers

Answer:

[tex]\left(\frac{m(t)}{m_{o}} \right)_{min} \approx 0.659[/tex] and [tex]\left(\frac{m(t)}{m_{o}} \right)_{max} \approx 0.661[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of the isotope decay is:

[tex]\frac{m(t)}{m_{o}} = e^{-\frac{t}{\tau} }[/tex]

14-Carbon has a half-life of 5568 years, the time constant of the isotope is:

[tex]\tau = \frac{5568\,years}{\ln 2}[/tex]

[tex]\tau \approx 8032.926\,years[/tex]

The decay time is:

[tex]t = 1315\,years + 2007\,years \pm 13\,years[/tex] (There is no a year 0 in chronology).

[tex]t = 3335 \pm 13\,years[/tex]

Lastly, the relative amount is estimated by direct substitution:

[tex]\frac{m(t)}{m_{o}} = e^{-\frac{3335\,years}{8032.926\,years} }\cdot e^{\mp\frac{13\,years}{8032.926\,years} }[/tex]

[tex]\left(\frac{m(t)}{m_{o}} \right)_{min} = e^{-\frac{3335\,years}{8032.926\,years} }\cdot e^{-\frac{13\,years}{8032.926\,years} }[/tex]

[tex]\left(\frac{m(t)}{m_{o}} \right)_{min} \approx 0.659[/tex]

[tex]\left(\frac{m(t)}{m_{o}} \right)_{max} = e^{-\frac{3335\,years}{8032.926\,years} }\cdot e^{\frac{13\,years}{8032.926\,years} }[/tex]

her an annual simple interest rate of 8%.


a. How much will she have to pay back at the end of the 1 year?


b. How much interest does she have to pay?

Answers

Answer:

a. How much will she have to pay back at the end of the 1 year?

Answer: $540

b. How much interest does she have to pay?

Answer: $40

Step-by-step explanation:

Simple interest for any amount p is given by

SI = p*r*t/100

where r is the annual rate rate of interest

t is the time

____________________________________________

Given

p= $500 (loan taken)

r = 8%

t = 1 year

SI = 500*8*1/100 = 40

Thus, $40 is the interest charged in a year.

Total money paid at the end of one year = loan taken  + interest charged

                                                                    = $500 + $40

                                                                    = $540

In a 30-60-90 triangle, the length of the side opposite the 30 degree angle is 8. Find the length of the side opposite the 60 degree angle.

Answers

Answer:

The length of the side opposite the 60 degree angle 'c' = 4

Step-by-step explanation:

Step(i):-

Given data ∠A = 90° , ∠B = 60° and ∠C = 30°

Given data the length of the side opposite the 30 degree angle is 8

let  'a' = 8

step(ii):-

By using sine rule formula in properties of triangle

[tex]\frac{a}{Sin A} = \frac{b}{Sin B} = \frac{c}{Sin C} = 2 R[/tex]

[tex]\frac{a}{Sin A} = \frac{c}{Sin C}[/tex]

[tex]\frac{8}{Sin 90} = \frac{c}{Sin 30}[/tex]

cross multiplication , we get

[tex]\frac{8 X sin 30}{Sin 90} = c[/tex]

we know that trigonometry formulas

sin 30° = [tex]\frac{1}{2}[/tex]   and sin 90°= 1

C =  8 X 1/2 = 4

The inverse function is [tex]f^{-1}(x) = \frac{x-1}{2}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

We have the following function:

y = 2x + 1

Finding the inverse:

Exchange y and x, and then isolate y again. So

y = 2x + 1

Exchange y and x

x = 2y + 1

2y = x - 1

[tex]y = \frac{x-1}{2}[/tex]

So

The inverse function is [tex]f^{-1}(x) = \frac{x-1}{2}[/tex]

A box is with a square base and open top is to be constructed and a total volume of 720 cubic inches is required. The cost of material for the base is 8 dollars per square inch and the cost of material for the sides is 6 dollars per square inch. Express the total cost of the box as a function of the length of the base.

Answers

Answer:

  total cost = 8x^2 +17280/x

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent the base length. Then the area of the base is x^2, and the height is h = 720/x^2.

The area of the four sides is ...

  (4x)(h) = (4x)(720/x^2) = 2880/x

The cost of the base is ...

  base cost = 8x^2

And the cost of the sides is ...

  side cost = 6(2880)/x = 17280/x

The total cost of the box is ...

  total cost = base cost + side cost

  total cost = 8x^2 +17280/x

_____

Comment on the cost function

You will find this function has a minimum at x=∛1080 ≈ 10.260 in. The total cost is about $2526.35, and the box is 2/3 times as tall as wide. That aspect ratio makes any pair of opposite sides cost the same as the base, the generic solution to a cost optimization problem of this sort.
