Mai sells makeup online and has noticed that demand for her products, glittery lip gloss, has varied wildly over the past few months she has been selling it. She's been doing some online advertising and thinks there might be a relationship between how much she's spending each week on ads and her weekly lip gloss sales, so she's used Excel to create an Associative Forecast: where the intercept is -20 and the slope is 2.5 per $ spent advertising. Use this information to forecast lip gloss sales in week 18, when she will be spending $100 on advertising. Answer:

Consider a city where everyone commutes to the city center and commuting cost per mile per month is $40. Each household occupies a 1,000-square-foot dwelling and has $7,000 worth of possessions in its dwelling. The probability that any particular household will be burglarized (involving the uninsured loss of all possessions) is 0.10 at the city center and decreases by 0.01 per mile (to 0.09 at one mile, 0.08 at two miles, and so on). The housing price is $1.00 per square foot at the city center. a) Draw the housing-price curve for locations up to five miles from the city center.
Kroger, the country's leading grocery-only chain, added a line of private latbel organic and natural foods call Simple Truth to its stores. If you've priced organic foods, you know they are more expensive. For example, a dozen conventionally farmed Grade-A eggs at Kroger costs consumers $1.5, whereas Simple Truth eggs are priced at $3.5 per dozen. One study found that, overall, the average price of organic foods is 85 percent more than that of conventional foods. However, if prices get too high, consumers will not purchase the organic options. One element of sustainability is organic farming, which costs much more than conventional farming, and those higher costs are passed on to consumers. Suppose that a conventional egg farmer's average fixed costs per year for conventionally-farmed eggs are $1 milion per year, but an organic egg farmer's fixed costs are four times that amount. Further assume that the organic farmer's variable costs of $2.7 per dozen are three times as much as…

Suppose 1,250 raffle tickets are being sold for $5 each. One ticket will be chosen to receive a cash prize of $2,500, and three tickets will be chosen to recelve cash prizes of $500. Let x be the amount of money won/lost by purchasing one raffle ticket. Find the expected value for . (Round your answer to the nearest penny. Do not include as sign in your answer. Your answer may be positive or negative.)
In October 2015, amid rising fears about the security of credit card transactions, financial institutions and businesses made the transition to using chip cards. Unlike the quick swipe of a magnetic stripe on the back of traditional credit and debit cards, chip cards have to be left inside the terminal while the embedded chip verifies the transaction. While there is no consistent method for measuring transaction speed, news agencies report average chip speeds of anywhere from 8 seconds to 13 seconds. The switch to chip readers was precarious, with many businesses taping over the chip card slots in the terminals until the kinks were worked out. Even after a year, some businesses still could not process chips and continued to utilize the magnetic stripe for transactions. Financial institutions thought the additional security benefits of the chips would overshadow the added wait times. Yet a survey conducted by Harbortouch, a leading point-of-sale company, in 2016 showed that nearly four…
Industry standards suggest that 12 percent of new vehicles require warranty service within the first year. University Toyota in Morgantown, WV sold 10 Toyotas yesterday. What is the probability that exactly one of these vehicles will require warranty service?
Consider the lottery that assigns a probability T of obtaining a level of consumption CH and a probability 1-T of obtaining a low level of consumption c, with CH > C1. Consider an individual facing such a lottery with utility function u(c) that has the properties that more is better (that is, a strictly positive marginal utility of consumption at all levels of c) and diminishing marginal utility of consumption, u"(c) < 0. As usual, we are using the shorthand u'(c) consumption and u"(c) = " = dư ( to be the second derivative of the utility function (which is also the derivative of the first derivative of the utility function). du(c) for the first derivative of the utility function with respect to dc du(c) dc2 du' (c) dc
