The employees at retail store earn $8.75 per hour. They can earn 1.5 times their hourly wage for every hour they work over 40 in

At a wage of 8.75 per hour, total earnings for 40 hours would be 350. Calculate overtime at 8.75 times 1.5 which equals 13.13. Then, multiply 13.13 by 12 to get $158. So the total is 350 + 158 = 508, likely around 480 after taxes for the US.

a resorvoir can be filled by an inlet pipe in 24 hours and emptied by an outlet pipe 28 hours. the foreman starts to fill the re
zzz [9093]
To determine the rates at which the inlet and outlet pipes fill and empty the reservoir, we remember that work done equals rate multiplied by time. Let’s denote the inlet rate as i and for the outlet pipe as 0. Therefore,
i(24) = 1
o(28) = 1
In this context, the '1' represents the total number of reservoirs, since the problem states the time needed for each pipe to either fill or empty a singular reservoir. Solving for rates yields:
i = 1/24 reservoirs/hour
o = 1/28 reservoirs/hour

Over the first six hours, the inlet pipe fills (1/24)(6) = 1/4 reservoirs and during the same period, the outlet pipe empties (1/28)(6) = 3/14 reservoirs. To calculate the net volume of the reservoir filled, we subtract the emptying total from the filling total:
1/4 - 3/14 = 1/28 reservoirs (note that if emptying exceeds filling, a negative value results. In such cases, treat that negative value as zero, indicating that the outlet rate surpasses the inlet rate, leading to an empty reservoir).
Now we need to find out how long it will take to fill up one reservoir since we’ve already partially filled 1/28 of it, after closing the outlet pipe. In simpler terms, we need to determine the time required for the inlet pipe to finish filling the remaining 27/28 of the reservoir. Fortunately, we have already established the filling rate for the inlet pipe, leading to the equation:
(1/24)t = 27/28
Solving for t gives us 23.14 hours. Remember to add the initial 6 hours to this result since the question seeks the total time. Thus, the final total is 29.14 hours.

The random variable X, representing the number of cherries in a cherry puff, has the following probability distribution:x: 4 - 5
Leona [9271]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The probability distribution for the random variable X is provided.

X 4 5 6 7 Total

P 0.2 0.4 0.3 0.1 1

x*p 0.8 2 1.8 0.7 5.3

x^2*p 3.2 10 10.8 4.9 28.9

a) The expected value E(X), representing the mean of X, equates to 5.3.

Var(x) = 28.9-5.3^2=0.81

Standard deviation is the square root of the variance, which amounts to 0.9.

------------------------------------

b) For the mean of the sample, we find:

Mean = 5.3

Variance = var(x)/n = \frac{0.81}{{36} } \\=0.0225

c) P(\bar X
