Real word example where a
piecework function might be used

Answers

Answer 1

9514 1404 393

Explanation:

Garment factory: workers may get paid by the number of pieces they complete.

__

Wood chopping: the worker gets paid by the number of cords of wood they produce, not by how long it takes.

__

Haircut -- the cost is the same (for the same type haircut) even if more time is spent

____

The above are instances where an individual worker gets paid by the piece they produce. There are numerous instances of companies getting paid by the job, regardless of the length of time or the quantity of materials required to do the job.

Lawn mowing -- the price is fixed each time the crew mows the lawn

Oil Change -- the cost of changing the oil in the car is not dependent on the time it takes or the amount of oil used

Car wash -- a fixed price is paid each time (at an automatic car wash)

4. Which set of ordered pairs represents a function?

(1) {(0,4), (2,4),(2,5)}
(2){(6,0), (5,0),(4,0)}
(3) {(4,1),(6,2), (6,3), (5,0)}
(4) {(0,4),(1,4), (0,5),(1,5)}​

Answers

Answer: (2) {(6,0), (5,0),(4,0)}

It is a function, where each value is associated with exactly one output.

Step-by-step explanation:

A relation is said to be a function if the first components of the ordered pairs are associated with exactly one value of the second components of the ordered pair.

(1) {(0,4), (2,4),(2,5)}

here 2 is associated with 2 different values of second component.

Thus it is not a function.

(2) {(6,0), (5,0),(4,0)}

It is a function, where each value is associated with exactly one output.

(3)  {(4,1),(6,2), (6,3), (5,0)}

It is not a function as 6 is associated with 2 different values of second component.

(4) {(0,4),(1,4), (0,5),(1,5)}​

It is not a function as 0 and 1 are associated with 2 different values of second component.

A satellite system consists of 4 components and can function if at least 2of them are working. If each component independently works with probability 0.8, what is the probability the system will function?

Answers

Answer:

X follows binomial distribution with n=4, p=0.6, q= 0.4. To make the system function adequately, at least 2 components should work well.

Step-by-step explanation:

Hope this helps

Answer:

0.9728

Step-by-step explanation:

We have 2 options for the system to fail - no components work, or only one works.

The probability that no components work is:

[tex]0.2^4 = 0.0016[/tex]

The probability that one SPECIFIC component works and the others failed is:

[tex]0.2^3 \cdot 0.8 = 0.0064[/tex]

And because there's 4 components, the chance that EXACTLY ONE works but the others don't is:

[tex]4 \cdot 0.0064 = 0.0256[/tex]

So we sum the probabilities:

[tex]P_{failure} = 0.0016 + 0.0256 = 0.0272\\P_{works} = 1 - P_{failure} = 0.9728[/tex]

What is the sum of 50.249 + 21.3

Answers

Answer:

71.549

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer:

The sum of 50.249 + 21.3 is 71.549.

Step-by-step explanation:

50.249 + 21.3 can be written as (50 + 20) + (0 + 1) + (0.2 + 0.3) + 0.049, which makes calculating the sum easier. 50 + 20 = 70, 0 + 1 = 1, 0.2 + 0.3 = 0.5, and you still have a 0.049. Add the numbers all together and you'll get that the sum of 50.249 and 21.3 is 70 + 1 + 0.5 + 0.049 or 71.549.

A rectangle measures 2 1/2 meters by 1 3/4 meters. What is its area?

Answers

Answer:

4 3/8

Step-by-step explanation:

1. We can use the formula

Area = L (length) x W (width)

2. The area is unknown so we can substitute it for a

  The length and width are both known, so we can plug them in.

a= 2 1/2 x 1 3/4

3. Solve by multiplying

a=4 3/8

Area of the rectangle is [tex]4\frac{3}{8}[/tex] meter square

What is Area?

Area is the quantity that expresses the extent of a region on the plane or on a curved surface

What is rectangle?

Rectangle is a quadrilateral with four right angles

Area of the rectangle = Length × Width

Length of the rectangle = [tex]2\frac{1}{2} =\frac{5}{2}[/tex]

Width of the rectangle = [tex]1\frac{3}{4}=\frac{7}{4}[/tex]

Area of the rectangle = [tex](\frac{5}{2}).(\frac{7}{4})=\frac{35}{8}=4\frac{3}{8}[/tex] meter square

Hence, the area of the rectangle is [tex]4\frac{3}{8}[/tex] meter square

Write the equation of the line in SLOPE- INTERCEPT form:
1. (4, 2); slope 3
2. (3, -1); slope 4
3. (-4,-2), (4,0)

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

1) slope = m = 3

(4 , 2) ;  x₁ = 4 ; y₁ = 2

y - y₁ = m(x  - x₁)

y - 2 = 3(x - 4)

y - 2 = 3x - 4*3

y - 2 = 3x - 12

y  = 3x - 12 + 2

y = 3x - 10     {Slope -intercept form: y = mx + b}

3) (-4 , -2) , (4 , 0)

We have to find the slope

[tex]Slope =\frac{y_{2}-y_{1}}{x_{2}-x_{1}}\\\\= \frac{0-[-2]}{4-[-4]}\\\\=\frac{0+2}{4+4}\\\\=\frac{2}{8}\\\\=\frac{1}{4}\\[/tex]

m = 1/4  ; (4 , 0)

y - y₁ = m(x  - x₁)

[tex]y - 0 = \frac{1}{2}(x - 4)\\\\y =\frac{1}{2}x - 4 *\frac{1}{2}\\\\y =\frac{1}{2}x - 2[/tex]
