Concept explainers
13. a. A student earns $15 perhour for tutoring and $10 per houras a teacher’s aide. Let
b. The student is bound by the following constraints:
• To have enough time for studies, the student can workno more than 20 hours per week.
• The tutoring center requires that each tutor spend atleast three hours per week tutoring.
• I he tutoring center requires that each tutor spend nomore than eight hours per week tutoring.
Write a system of three inequalities that describes theseconstraints,
c. Graph the system of inequalities in part (b). Use only the first quadrant and its boundary, because, x and y are nonnegative.
d. Evaluate the objective function for total weekly earningsat each of the four vertices of the graphed region, [Thevertices should occur at (3,0), (8,0), (3,17). and(8,12).]
e. Complete the missing portions of this statement: Thestudent can earn the maximum amount per week by
tutoring for8hours per week and working
as a teacher’s aide for 12 hours per week. The
maximum amount that the student can earn each week$240

THINKING MATHEMATICALLY
- Explore this statement by constructing at least three examples, one of which must be a negative integer. Indicate if the statement is true or false for each example.arrow_forwardFind binomial probability if: x = 8, n = 10, p = 0.7 x= 3, n=5, p = 0.3 x = 4, n=7, p = 0.6 Quality Control: A factory produces light bulbs with a 2% defect rate. If a random sample of 20 bulbs is tested, what is the probability that exactly 2 bulbs are defective? (hint: p=2% or 0.02; x =2, n=20; use the same logic for the following problems) Marketing Campaign: A marketing company sends out 1,000 promotional emails. The probability of any email being opened is 0.15. What is the probability that exactly 150 emails will be opened? (hint: total emails or n=1000, x =150) Customer Satisfaction: A survey shows that 70% of customers are satisfied with a new product. Out of 10 randomly selected customers, what is the probability that at least 8 are satisfied? (hint: One of the keyword in this question is “at least 8”, it is not “exactly 8”, the correct formula for this should be = 1- (binom.dist(7, 10, 0.7, TRUE)). The part in the princess will give you the probability of seven and less than…arrow_forwardplease answer these questionsarrow_forward

Un échantillon aléatoire de 14 ménages pour la région de Montréal et de 16 ménages pour la région Québec est tiré et donne les données suivantes, en ce qui a trait aux dépenses pour ce secteur d’activité économique. On suppose que les données de chaque population sont distribuées selon une loi normale.
