A basket of goods was valued at $45.40 in January 2011. The inflation rate for the year was 4%. What is the expected cost of the basket of goods in January 2012? Write your answer to the nearest cent. 2012 cost = 2011 cost * (1 + I/100) 2012 cost = 45.40 * (1 + 4/100) 2012 cost = 45.40 * (1 + 0.04) 2012 cost = 45.40 * (1.04) 2012 cost = [B]47.22[/B]

A bowler knocks down at least 6 pins 70 percent of the time. Out of 200 rolls, how many times can you predict the bowler will knock down at least 6 pins? Expected Value of (knocking down at least 6 pins) = number of rolls * probability of knocking down at least 6 pins Expected Value of (knocking down at least 6 pins) = 200 * 0.7 Expected Value of (knocking down at least 6 pins) = [B]140[/B]

a cash prize of $4600 is to be awarded at a fundraiser. if 2300 tickets are sold at $7 each, find the expected value. Expected Value E(x) is: E(x) = Probability of winning * Winning Price - Probability of losing * Ticket Price [U]Since only 1 cash price will be given, 2299 will be losers:[/U] E(x) = 4600 * (1/2300) - 2299/2300 * 7 E(x) = 2 - 0.99956521739 * 7 E(x) - 2 - 7 E(x) = [B]-5[/B]

A chicken farm produces ideally 700,000 eggs per day. But this total can vary by as many as 60,000 eggs. What is the maximum and minimum expected production at the farm? [U]Calculate the maximum expected production:[/U] Maximum expected production = Average + variance Maximum expected production = 700,000 + 60,000 Maximum expected production = [B]760,000[/B] [U]Calculate the minimum expected production:[/U] Minimum expected production = Average - variance Minimum expected production = 700,000 - 60,000 Minimum expected production = [B]640,000[/B]

A coffee franchise is opening a new store. The company estimates that there is a 75% chance the store will have a profit of $45,000, a 10% chance the store will break even, and a 15% chance the store will lose $2,500. Determine the expected gain or loss for this store. Calculate the expected value E(x). Expected value is the sum of each event probability times the payoff or loss: E(x) = 0.75(45,000) + 0.1(0) + 0.15(-2,500) <-- Note, break even means no profit and no loss and a loss is denoted with a negative sign E(x) = 33,750 + 0 - 375 E(x) = [B]33,375 gain[/B]

A company has 3,100 employees and is expected to grow at a rate of 0.04 for the next six years. How many employees will they have in 6 years? Round to the nearest whole number. We build the following exponential equation: Final Balance = Initial Balance * (1 + growth rate)^time Final Balance = 3100(1.04)^6 Final Balance = 3100 * 1.2653190185 Final Balance = 3922.48895734 The problem asks us to round to the nearest whole number. Since 0.488 is less than 0.5, we round [U]down.[/U] Final Balance = [B]3,922[/B]

A lottery offers 1 $1000 prize and 5 $100 prizes. 1000 tickets are sold. Find the expectation if a person buys 1 ticket for $5. Set up the expected values E(x): for the 1,000 price: E(x) = (1000 - 5) * 1/1000 = 995/1000 For the 5 $100 prizes: E(x) = (100 - 5) * 5/1000 = 475/1000 For the losing ticket. With 6 winning tickets, we have 1000 - 6 = 994 losing tickets: E(x) = -3 * 994/1000 = -2982/1000 We get our total expected value by adding all of these expected values up. Since they all have the same denominator, we add numerators: E(x) = (995 + 475 - 2982)/1000 E(x) = -1512/1000 E(x) = [B]-1.51[/B]

A private high school charges $36,400 for tuition, but this figure is expected to rise 10% per year. What will tuition be in 10 years? Let the tuition be T(y) where y is the number of years from now. We've got: T(y) = 36400 * (1.1)^y The problem asks for T(10) T(10) = 36400 * (1.1)^10 T(10) = 36400 * 2.5937424601 T(10) = [B]94,412.23[/B]

A private high school charges $52,200 for tuition, but this figure is expected to rise 7% per year. What will tuition be in 3 years? We have the following appreciation equation A(y) where y is the number of years: A(y) = Initial Balance * (1 + appreciation percentage)^ years Appreciation percentage of 7% is written as 0.07, so we have: A(3) = 52,200 * (1 + 0.07)^3 A(3) = 52,200 * (1.07)^3 A(3) = 52,200 * 1.225043 A(3) = [B]63,947.25[/B]

A spinner is divided into 4 equal sections numbered 1 to 4. The theoretical probability of the spinner stopping on 3 is 25%. Which of the following is most likely the number of 3s spun in 10,000 spins? We want Expected Value of s spins. Set up the expected value formula for any number 1-4 E(s) = 0.25 * n where n is the number of spins. Using s = 3, n = 10,000, we have: E(10,000) = 0.25 * 10,000 E(10,000) = [B]2,500[/B]

An organic juice bottler ideally produces 215,000 bottle per day. But this total can vary by as much as 7,500 bottles. What is the maximum and minimum expected production at the bottling company?

Chuck-a-luck is an old game, played mostly in carnivals and county fairs. To play chuck-a-luck you place a bet, say $1, on one of the numbers 1 through 6. Say that you bet on the number 4. You then roll three dice (presumably honest). If you roll three 4’s, you win $3.00; If you roll just two 4’s, you win $2; if you roll just one 4, you win $1 (and, in all of these cases you get your original $1 back). If you roll no 4’s, you lose your $1. Compute the expected payoff for chuck-a-luck. Expected payoff for each event = Event Probability * Event Payoff Expected payoff for 3 matches: 3(1/6 * 1/6 * 1/6) = 3/216 = 1/72 Expected payoff for 2 matches: 2(1/6 * 1/6 * 5/6) = 10/216 = 5/108 Expected payoff for 1 match: 1(1/6 * 5/6 * 5/6) = 25/216 Expected payoff for 0 matches: -1(5/6 * 5/6 * 5/6) = 125/216 Add all these up: (3 + 10 + 25 - 125)/216 -87/216 ~ [B]-0.40[/B]

Given that E[Y]=2 and Var [Y] =3, find E[(2Y + 1)^2] Multiply through E[(2Y + 1)^2] = E[4y^2 + 4y + 1] We can take the expected value of each term E[4y^2] + E[4y] + E[1] For the first term, we have: 4E[Y^2] We define the Var[Y] = E[Y^2] - (E[Y])^2 Rearrange this term, we have E[Y^2] = Var[Y] + (E[Y])^2 E[Y^2] = 3+ 2^2 E[Y^2] = 3+ 4 E[Y^2] = 7 So our first term is 4(7) = 28 For the second term using expected value rules of separating out a constant, we have 4E[Y] = 4(2) = 8 For the third term, we have: E[1] = 1 Adding up our three terms, we have: E[4y^2] + E[4y] + E[1] = 28 + 8 + 1 E[4y^2] + E[4y] + E[1] = [B]37[/B]

Today a car is valued at $42000. the value is expected to decrease at a rate of 8% each year. what is the value of the car expected to be 6 years from now.
