Netflix made headlines in September 2011 when it split its streaming video service and its DVD by-mail service into two companies. This decision was based on projections that streaming videos will replace DVDs in the future. In this problem, you will explore these projections. Numbers below are close to the correct values, but vary to allow more practice with this idea. Total DVD and Blu-ray disc sales in 2009 were $8.72 billion. For the purposes of this problem, you will combine DVD and Blue-ray disk sales into one category of DVD sales. A study by In-Stat predicted that "physical disc sales will decline by $4.7 billion by 2014," and that "streaming, on the other hand, should grow from its current $2.1 billion to $6.3 billion over the same time period (2009–2014)." What is the slope, including units, of the model for streaming videos?
A forest consists of two types of trees; young (between 0 and 3 m tall) and adults (more than 3 m). Each year, 20% of young trees die, 10% sell for $20 each, 30% remain between 0 and 3 m, and 40% grow taller than 3 m. Each year, 40% of adult trees sell for $50, 20% sell for $20, 30% remain in the forest, and 10% die. What percentage of the trees planted sell for $50?
Three friends are trying to predict who will make more money at work tomorrow. John works construction: he will make $250 tomorrow unless it rains, in which case he will make $0. Sara works in a restaurant: she will earn $100 if it is sunny, $200 if it is rainy, and $250 if the weather is average. Chris works in a warehouse, and he earns a flat rate of $200 per day, regardless of weather conditions. Suppose there is a 20% chance that tomorrow will be sunny, and 50% chance that the weather will be average, and a 30% chance of rain. Determine tomorrow’s expected earnings for each of these 3 friends. Compute the standard deviation for Sara’s earnings. Handwrite the solution
The developer of a new residential area has plans for houses, parks, a school, and a community centre, connected by roads and footpaths. Some of these areas need to be fenced off. The developer proposes to use "solar fences" using vertically mounted bidirectional solar panels, which generate electricity whichever side of the fence the sun is shining on. The electricity would be sold to local residents at 10% less than the cost of buying electricity from the local electric utility. This would decrease revenues for the local electric utility which is owned by the city. The city council decides to give planning permission for solar fences if > 50% of residents are in favour. It selects 34 residents at random and finds that 23 of them support the installation of these solar fences. Complete parts (a) through (c). a) Check whether the city should give planning permission at the 10% significance level using a hypothesis test. Let p be the proportion of people that support the installation of…

A producer of perishable product offers a wage incentive to drivers of its trucks. A standard delivery takes an average of 30 hours. Drivers are paid at the rate of $20 per hour up to maximum of 40 hours. If the trip requires more than 30 hours, the drivers receive compensation for only 30 hours. There is an incentive for drivers to make the trip in less (but not to much less) than 30 hours. For each hour under 30, the hourly wage increases by $1.25.Determine the function w = f(x) where w equals the hourly wage in dollars and x equals the number of hours required to complete the trip.a) What trip time x will maximize the driver salary for the trip?b) What is the hourly wage associated with this trip?c) What is the maximum salaryd) How does this salary compare with that received for a 20 hours trip?
