The manager of a children's puppet theatre has determined that the number of adult tickets he sells for a Saturday afternoon show is a random variable with a mean of 28.3
tickets and a standard deviation of 5.3 tickets. The mean number of children's tickets he
sells is 42.5, with a standard deviation of 8.1.
(a) The adult tickets sell for $10. Let A = the money he collects from adult tickets on a
random Saturday. What are the mean and standard deviation of A?

For what value of (y) is 3^3/3^y =1/9

Acaterer knows he will need 60, 50, 80, 40 and 50 dinner napkins on five successive evenings. he can purchase new napkins initially at 25 cents each, after which he can have dirty napkins laundered by a fast one-day laundry service (i.e., dirty napkins given at the end of the day will be ready for use the following day) at 15 cents each, or by a slow two-day service at 8 cents each or both. the caterer wants to know how many napkins he should purchase initially and how many dirty napkins should be laundered by fast and slow service on each of the days in order to minimize his total costs. formulate the caterer’s problem as a linear program as follows (you must state any assumptions you make): a. define all variables clearly. how many are there? b. write out the constraints that must be satisfied, briefly explaining each. (do not simplify.) write out the objective function to be minimized. (do not simplify.)
