A food manufacturer uses an extruder (a machine that produces bite-size cookies and snack food) that yields revenue for the firm at a rate of $200 per hour when in operation. However, the extruder breaks down an average of two times every day it operates. If Y denotes the number of breakdowns per day, the daily revenue generated by the machine is R = 1600 − 50Y 2. Find the expected daily revenue for the extruder

Employment. According to the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics, the number of professional services employees fluctuated during the period 2000-2009, as modeled by E(t) = -28.31t³ +381.86t² - 1162.07t + 16,905.87, where t is the number of years since 2000 (t = 0 corresponds to 2000) and E is thousands of employees. (Source: www.data.bls.gov.) Find the relative extrema of this function, and sketch the graph. Interpret the meaning of the relative extrema.
The number of banks in a country has been dropping steadily since 1984, and the trend in recent years has been roughly linear. The annual data for the years 1999 through 2008 can be summarized as follows, where x represents the years since 1990 and y the number of banks, in thousands. n=10 Ex-235 ²-5605 Ey-77.564 Ey²=603.80424 Exy-1810.155 a. Find an equation for the least squares line. b. Use your result from part a to predict the number of banks in the year 2020. c. If this trend continues linearly, in what year will the number of banks drop below 6200? d. Find and interpret the correlation coefficient.
Recently there has been a rise in fatal accidents caused by “distracted driving.” The United States National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHSTA) defines a distraction as anything that diverts attention from driving. The following model estimates the trend in distracted driving accidents over time based on data from the NHSTA:D = 0.015t - 29.97 In this model, D is the decimal to be turned into a percentage of all fatal accidents caused by distracted driving, and t is any calendar year between 2000 and 2020. Use the model to estimate the rate for 2005 and 2020. Note: this means to plug n 2005 for t and simplify and then turn your answer into a percent. Then plug in 2020 for t and simplify and then turn your answer into a percent.
Hazel has four very short children and wants to predict how tall the kids will be in the future, as they get older she measures their height and finds: Rufus, age 3, 46 cm in height Angus, age 4, 52 cm in height matilda, age 6, 63 cm in height Lao age 8, 85 cm in height Round to the nearest integers, what is the regression equation computed from the data
You are the Filipino analyst hired by the multinational company to study the sales data of its more than 75 stores worldwide. You used regression analysis to predict $ sales (y) by using $ advertising (x1) and $ salary of sales representatives (x2) across all the branches. You obtained the following regression function: y = 7800 + 8.5x1-1.6x2 If the advertising budgets of one of the branches of the corporation is the same as before and the salary of sales representatives is now 20% less than before, then the predicted sales in that branch will A. increase B. no sufficient information to determine C. decrease D. remain the same
The table shows the number of goals allowed and the total points earned (2 points for a win, and 1 point for an overtime or shootout loss) by 14 ice hockey teams over the course of a season. The equation of the regression line is y= - 0.558x + 216.186. Use the data to answer the following questions. (a) Find the coefficient of determination, r, and interpret the result. (b) Find the standard error of the estimate, s,, and interpret the result.

The marching band at a local high school is selling candy bars. The profits will go toward the purchase of new marching band uniforms. They are interested in knowing what price they should charge to obtain the maximum profit. The candy bars are donated by a local retailer so they know that if they charge $0 they will make $0 profit. They also collect data from other marching bands who have sold candy bars in the past. The data they collected is shown in the table below. Price 0.00 0.45 0.60 0.75 1.00 1.25 1.40 1.50 Profit 0.00 $720 $900 $990 $845 $625 $560 $300 What factors might influence how much is to be made from the candy sale? Give at least two. What happens to the profit as the price of each candy bar increases? Explain possible reasons for your observations. How do you suppose the other bands determined the price at which to sell each candy bar? Do any data values seem unusual? Yes or…
