There has been much media coverage of the high cost of medicinal drugs in the United States. One concern is the large variation from pharmacy to pharmacy. To investigate, a consumer advocacy group took a random sample of 100 pharmacies around the country and recorded the price (in dollars per 100 pills) of Prozac. Compute the range, variance, and standard deviation of the prices. Discuss what these statistics tell you.

Answer:

Range = 25.35

Variance = 29.46

Standard deviation = 5.43

The variation in price of Prozac is high

Step-by-step explanation:

The range of the data :

Maximum - Minimum.

121.2 - 95.35 = 25.35

The variance, s :

s² = Σ(X - m²) / n - 1

Mean, m = Σx / n

X = individual data point

m = mean of data

n = sample size

Using a calculator of save time and ensure accuracy :

s² = 29.45522

The standard deviation, s

s = sqrt(variance)

s = sqrt(s²)

s = sqrt(29.45522)

s = 5.42726.

The range, variance and standard deviation, all measure the degree of variation in a dataset. The values of these statistical measure obtain for the price of 1 product across different pharmaceutical stores, suggests thatvthe variation in price is high;

With a range of about 25.35 and standard deviation of 5.43

Answer:

h = 79 m

Step-by-step explanation:

The length of the string, H = 125 m

The kite forms 39° angle.

We need to find the height of the kite. Let it is h. We can find it using trigonometry i.e.

[tex]\sin\theta=\dfrac{P}{H}[/tex]

Where

P is perpendicular and H is Hypotenuse

So,

[tex]\sin\theta=\dfrac{h}{H}\\\\h=H\times \sin\theta\\\\h=125\times \sin(39)\\\\h=78.66\ m[/tex]

or

h = 79 m

So, the kite is flying at a height of 79 m.

Jason inherited a piece of land from his great-uncle. Owners in the area claim that there is a 45% chance that the land has oil. Jason decides to test the land for oil. He buys a kit that claims to have an 80% accuracy rate of indicating oil in the soil. What is the probability that the land has oil and the test predicts it

Answers

Answer:

0.36 = 36% probability that the land has oil and the test predicts it

Step-by-step explanation:

Conditional Probability

We use the conditional probability formula to solve this question. It is

[tex]P(B|A) = \frac{P(A \cap B)}{P(A)}[/tex]

In which

P(B|A) is the probability of event B happening, given that A happened.

[tex]P(A \cap B)[/tex] is the probability of both A and B happening.

P(A) is the probability of A happening.

45% chance that the land has oil.

This means that [tex]P(A) = 0.45[/tex]

He buys a kit that claims to have an 80% accuracy rate of indicating oil in the soil.

This means that [tex]P(B|A) = 0.8[/tex]

What is the probability that the land has oil and the test predicts it?

This is [tex]P(A \cap B)[/tex]. So

[tex]P(B|A) = \frac{P(A \cap B)}{P(A)}[/tex]

[tex]P(B \cap A) = P(B|A)*P(A) = 0.8*0.45 = 0.36[/tex]

0.36 = 36% probability that the land has oil and the test predicts it

Answer:

The probability that the land has oil and the test predicts it is 36%

Step-by-step explanation:

Area of two parallelograms = 3⅐ = 22/7

Area of one parallelogram = 11/7

Height = 1 2/7 = 9/7

base of one parallelogram = (11/7)/(9/7) = 11/9 yards

Answer:

b = 11/9 = 1 2/9

Step-by-step explanation:

A=bh

1.2(3 1/7)=b(1 2/7)

(1/2(22/7))/9/7=b

(11/7)/9/7=b

11/7x7/9=b

x = 43

Step-by-step explanation:

Since these angles are inside a right angle, we know their sums are complementary (they add up to 90°.)

x + x + 4 = 90

2x + 4 = 90 | Combine x's

2x = 86 | Subtract 4 from both sides

x = 43 | Divide both sides by 2

A manufacturer produces two models of toy airplanes. It takes the manufacturer 20 minutes to assemble model A and 10 minutes to package it. It takes the manufacturer 25 minutes to assemble model B and 5 minutes to package it. In a given week, the total available time for assembling is 3000 minutes, and the total available time for packaging is 1200 minutes. Model A earns a profit of $10 for each unit sold and model B earns a profit of $8 for each unit sold. Assuming the manufacturer is able to sell as many models as it makes, how many units of each model should be produced to maximize the profit for the given week?

Answers

Answer:

[tex]\$1320[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Let [tex]x[/tex] be the number of units of A

[tex]y[/tex] be the number of units of B

For assembling we have

[tex]20x+25y\leq 3000[/tex]

For packaging we have

[tex]10x+5y\leq 1200[/tex]

Let profits earned be [tex]Z[/tex] so

[tex]Z=10x+8y[/tex]

We have the maximize the function.

Plotting the equations we can see that the intersection points are [tex](0,120),(100,40),(120,0)[/tex]

In the question it is mentioned we have to sell both the products so [tex]x[/tex] or [tex]y[/tex] cannot be [tex]0[/tex].

So, the point of maximiztion for the function would be [tex](100,40)[/tex]

The maximum profit would be

[tex]Z=10\times 100+8\times 40\\\Rightarrow Z=1320[/tex]

y= kx + 12
y= 1x – 4
С
D
y = 3.2 – 4

Answers

Answer:

y = 3x + 12

Step-by-step explanation:

Slope (m) = 24-9/4-(-1)

= 25/5

= 3

Using point (-1 , 9)

y - y1 = m (x - x1)

y - 9 = 3 (x - -1)

y - 9 = 3 (x + 1)

y - 9 = 3x + 3

y = 3x + 3 + 9

y = 3x + 12

What is an equation of the line that passes through the point
(−1,−3) and is parallel to the line 4x-y=2?

Answers

Answer:  y = 4x + 11

Step-by-step explanation:First, you put the equation into the standard “slope/intercept” form.

4x -y = 2 subtract 4x from both sides ; -y = -4x + 2 Multiply by -1 :

y = 4x - 2

In this standard form we see that the slope of the line (coefficient of x) is 4. ANY line parallel to this one must thus also have a slope of 4.

y = 4x - a (generic)

ANY other combination of slope multiples and constant terms will therefore also be lines parallel to this one. The one that passes through a specific point will simply have a different constant term.

We find this by putting our point value into the equation:

3 = 4(-2) + a ; 3 = -8 + a ; a = 11

Thus, our “parallel line equation” through the point (-2,3) is:

y = 4x + 11

I don't think she's friends with any of us who were together from Kindergarten through s grade. I feel badthat we went our separate ways, but I never thought she would tum against me. Apparently she told the other girls in ourscience class that I'm rich, but not very smart." I'm assuming this is because she saw my dejected face when I got my sciencetest back. We are not rich either. Not that I know of, anyway. I still wear the same jeans, shirts, and shoes that everyone elsedoes.

I just wish she would tell me to my face instead of thewhispering. It's so annoying and distracting when I'm trying to pay attention in class.
