- Suppose that one factory inputs its goods from two different plants, A and B, with different costs, 3 and 7 each respective. And suppose the price function in the market is decided as p(x, y) = 100 - x - y where x and y are the demand functions and 0 < x, y. Then as x = y= the factory can attain the maximum profit,arrow_forwardBob and Teresa each collect their own samples to test the same hypothesis. Bob’s p-value turns out to be 0.05, and Teresa’s turns out to be 0.01. Why don’t Bob and Teresa get the same p-values? Who has stronger evidence against the null hypothesis: Bob or Teresa?arrow_forwardf(x) = = x - 3 x²-9 f(x) = {x + 1 x > 3 4 x < 3 -10 5 10 5 5. 10 5- 07. 10 -10 -5 0 10 5 -101 :: The function has a “step" or "jump" discontinuity at x = 3 where f(3) = 7. :: The function has a value of f (3), a limit as x approaches 3, but is not continuous at x = 3. :: The function has a limit as x approaches 3, but the function is not defined and is not continuous at x = 3. :: The function has a removable discontinuity at x=3 and an infinite discontinuity at x= -3.arrow_forward
- Review a classmate's Main Post. 1. State if you agree or disagree with the choices made for additional analysis that can be done beyond the frequency table. 2. Choose a measure of central tendency (mean, median, mode) that you would like to compute with the data beyond the frequency table. Complete either a or b below. a. Explain how that analysis can help you understand the data better. b. If you are currently unable to do that analysis, what do you think you could do to make it possible? If you do not think you can do anything, explain why it is not possible.arrow_forwardCalculus lll May I please have the solutions for the following examples?
