- A company manufacture two different types of call phone F and E, each unit of call phone S costs (OR .7)and each unit of call phone E costs (OR. 6). The company insists that total costs for the two types call phone be (OR .400). Assuming that company manufactures in total 88 products. How many products are of type Fand E? (solve the problem using Crammer's Rule)arrow_forwardA high school dietician is planning menus for the upcoming month. Anew item will be spaghetti with sauce. The dietician wants each serving tocontain at least 10 grams of protein and at least 40 grams of carbohydrates.Spaghetti contains 5 grams of protein and 32 grams of carbohydrates per cup,and the sauce contains 4 grams of protein and 5 grams of carbohydrates percup. For aesthetic reasons, the dietician wants a ratio of spaghetti to sauce to be4:1.Spaghetti costs $0.30 per cup to buy and prepare, and the sauce $0.40 per cupto buy and prepare. The dietician wants to minimize the cost per serving andkeep the calories per serving 330 or less. The sauce contains 100 calories percup, and spaghetti contains 160 calories per cup.Formulate a linear programming model for this problem.arrow_forwardAn analyst in the real estate business is interested in the relationship between the cost of the monthly rent of an apartment and the size of an apartment, in big cities. She gathers data for apartment buildings in 12 cities in 12 different states. In each city, she gets the numbers for at least 5 different buildings and at least 40 apartments in each building. She reaches the following conclusion: the rental cost of a 2-bedroom apartment is 50% more than the rental cost of a 1-bedroom apartment, and the rental cost of a 3-bedroom apartment is 50% more than the rental cost of a 2-bedroom apartment. Based on the paragraph, what is the minimum number of apartments she collected data on? Do you think her sample was large enough to be statistically valid? Based on the paragraph, are there any apartments or apartment buildings that she would have excluded from her study? Do you see any bias in how she selected apartments for her study? Based on the paragraph, is there a positive…arrow_forward

- The probability that each block fails to function is as shown. Assuming independence of failure for the numerous blocks, what is the probability that the system works?arrow_forwardA Gallup survey showed that in March 2011 , 8 of every 25 employers in the United States were adding more workers to their workforce, 9 of 50 were reducing their workforce, and 1 of 2 were keeping it the same. In a metropolitan area there are 1250 employers and of those who will hire, they will hire an average of seven new employees. If the employers who were cutting their workforce in that area were planning on letting go an average of nine workers, what would the net change in jobs for the area be? This metropolitan area would see a ▼net decrease or increase of jobs.arrow_forwardA consumer is given the chance to buy a baseball card for $1, but hedeclines the trade. If the consumer is now given the baseball card, willhe be willing to sell it for $1? Standard consumer theory suggests yes, butbehavioral economists have found that “ownership” tends to increase thevalue of goods to consumers. That is, the consumer may hold out for someamount more than $1 (for example, $1.20) when selling the card, eventhough he was willing to pay only some amount less than $1 (for example,$0.88) when buying it. Behavioral economists call this phenomenon the“endowment effect.” John List investigated the endowment effect in a randomized experiment involving sports memorabilia traders at a sports-card show. Traders were randomly given one of two sports collectibles, say good A or good B, that had approximately equal market value.1 Those receiving good A were then given the option of trading good A for good B with the experimenter; those receiving good B were given the option of…arrow_forward
- A restaurant frequently offers a special prix fixe meal and has been charging $160 per person for the event. At that price, they’ve been averaging 30 customers each time. Their marketing firm has convinced them that they’ll gain a customer for every dollar they lower the cost of the event, and conversely lose a customer for every dollar they raise the cost. Their fixed cost per event is $2600 and preparing each customer’s meal costs an additional $40. What are the break-even points in terms of customers served?arrow_forwardIn baseball, League A allows a designated hitter (DH) to bat for the pitcher, who is typically a weak hitter. In League B, the pitcher must bat. The common belief is that this results in League A teams scoring more runs. In interleague play, when League A teams visit League B teams, the League A pitcher must bat. So, if the DH does result in more runs, it would be expected that league A teams will score more runs in League A park than when visiting League B parks. To test this claim, a random sample of runs scored by league A teams with and without their DH is given in the accompanying table. Complete parts c) through d) below.arrow_forwardA coding supervisor has two full-time coders who average 35 productive hours per week. A standard of 20 minutes per chart has been established as the departmental coding standard. The facility anticipates an increase in the number of discharges since a new wing to the facility is nearing completion. It is anticipated that the number of discharges will increase to a total of 300 discharges to be coded per week. Will new staff be required and, if so, how many additional coders will be needed?arrow_forward
