What is the maximum number of times two planes can intersect? What is the minimum number of times they can intersect?

The least number of times that two planes can cross is zero, since parallel planes do not intersect. A good example would be a floor and a ceiling, which run parallel, hence they do not meet. Conversely, if two planes occupy the same space, they can intersect at infinitely many points, as could happen with a line within that plane.

A journalist wants to determine the average annual salary of CEOs in the S&P 1,500. He does not have time to survey all 1,50
Inessa [12570]

Answer:

At least 315

Step-by-step explanation:

A journalist intends to find the average annual salary of CEOs within the S&P 1,500. Due to time constraints, a sample is used.

Standard deviation of the sample (s) = 449300

Sample size = n

Permissible margin of error = 50000

Z critical value = 1.96

Thus, 1.96 times the standard error equals 50000.

Standard error equals 25510.20

Standard deviation divided by the square root of n = 25510.20

By simplifying, we can derive:

\sqrt{n} =\frac{449300}{25510.20} =17.752\\n=315\\

Thus, the minimum sample size required is 315.

The random variable X, representing the number of cherries in a cherry puff, has the following probability distribution:x: 4 - 5
Leona [12618]

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

Members of a school club are buying matching shirts. They know at least 25 members will get a shirt. Long-sleeved shirts are $10
babunello [11817]

Answer:

The highest number of long-sleeved shirts that can be ordered is 8

and

The lowest number of long-sleeved shirts that can be acquired is 0

Step-by-step breakdown:

Let y denote the quantity of short sleeves and x indicate the quantity of long sleeves.

According to the stipulated conditions:

Members of a school club are purchasing coordinating shirts. They understand that a minimum of 25 members will opt for a shirt.

therefore, we have;

x+y\geq 25               or

y\geq 25 -x....[1]

Given that long-sleeved shirts are priced at $10 each and short-sleeved shirts at $5 each.

Thus;

The total expense for long sleeves amounts to 10x and

the total cost of short sleeves is 5y

Moreover; the club has a budget that does not exceed $165

therefore;

10x+5y\leq 165 

 5y\leq 165 -10x or

y\leq 33-2x......[2]

By plotting the inequality functions:

Graphing equations [1] and [2] produces a maximum at the coordinates (8, 17)

thus, x= 8.

Taking the minimum value of x =0 results in y falling between 25 and 33.

consequently, the solution space is situated between the intersecting lines to the left.

In conclusion, a maximum of 8 long-sleeved shirts can be obtained, while the minimum number of long-sleeved shirts that can be bought is 0
