Each quarter the marketing manager of a retail store divides customers into two classes based on their purchase behavior in the previous quarter. Denote the classes as L for low and H for high. The manager wishes to determine to which classes of customers he should send quarterly catalogs. The cost of sending a catalog is $15 per customer and the expected purchase depends on the customer’s class and the manager’s action. If a customer is in class L and receives a catalog, then the expected purchase in the current quarter is $20, and if a class L customer does not receive a catalog his expected purchase is $10. If a customer is in class H and receives a catalog, then his expected purchase is $50, and if a class H customer does not receive a catalog his expected purchase is $25. The decision whether or not to send a catalog to a customer also affects the customer's classification in the subsequent quarter. If a customer is class L at the start of the present quarter, then the probability he is in class L at the subsequent quarter is 0.3 if he receives a catalog and 0.5 if he does not. If a customer is class H in the current period, then the probability that he remains in class H in the subsequent period is 0.8 if he receives a catalog and 0.4 if he does not. Assume a discount rate of 0.9 and an objective of maximizing expected total discounted reward.
a) Formulate this as an infinite-horizon discounted Markov decision problem.
b) For ???? = 0.1, find a near-optimal policy using value iteration.
c) Find an optimal policy using policy iteration starting with the stationary policy which has greatest one-step reward.
d) Formulate the problem as a linear program, giving its primal and dual. Solve both and interpret the solutions.

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer:

Whereby circle [tex]\bigodot[/tex]P can be obtained from circle [tex]\bigodot[/tex]O by applying the transformations of a translation of T₍₁₄, ₋₈₎ followed by a dilation by a scale factor of 2.4, [tex]\bigodot[/tex]O is similar to [tex]\bigodot[/tex]P

Step-by-step explanation:

The given center of the circle [tex]\bigodot[/tex]O = (-2, 7)

The radius of [tex]\bigodot[/tex]O, r₁ = 5

The given center of the circle [tex]\bigodot[/tex]P = (12, -1)

The radius of [tex]\bigodot[/tex]P, r₂ = 12

The similarity transformation to prove that [tex]\bigodot[/tex]O and [tex]\bigodot[/tex]P are similar are;

a) Move circle [tex]\bigodot[/tex]O 14 units to the right and 8 units down to the point (12, -1)

b) Apply a scale of S.F. = r₂/r₁ = 12/5 = 2.4

Therefore, the radius of circle [tex]\bigodot[/tex]O is increased by 2.4

We then obtain [tex]\bigodot[/tex]O' with center at (12, -1) and radius r₃ = 2.4×5 = 12 which has the same center and radius as circle [tex]\bigodot[/tex]P

∴ Circle [tex]\bigodot[/tex]P can be obtained from circle [tex]\bigodot[/tex]O by applying similarity transformation of translation of T₍₁₄, ₋₈₎ followed by a dilation by a scale factor of 2.4, [tex]\bigodot[/tex]O is similar to [tex]\bigodot[/tex]P.

If you mirror the graph along the x axis and it lies on itself ( mirror image) it is even, if not it is odd.

If you mirror the top graph the high/ low points would be opposite so the top graph is odd

The bottoms graph can be mirrored so the bottom graph is even.

Answer:

7/2, 5/4

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer:

x = 7/2 and y = 5/4

Step-by-step explanation:

2(5x - 2y = 15)

2x + 4y = 12

10x - 4y = 30

2x + 4y = 12                 (add)

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

12x = 42

x = [tex]\frac{42}{12}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{7}{2}[/tex]

2x + 4y = 12         (subsitute)

2([tex]\frac{7}{2}[/tex]) + 4y = 12

7 + 4y = 12

4y = 5

y = [tex]\frac{5}{4}[/tex]

Angle 4 is an exterior angle which is equal to the sum of the two opposite inside angles.

The two opposite inside angles are given as 51 and 51

Angle 3 = 51 + 51 = 102 degrees.

Answer:

[tex] \displaystyle \angle4 = {108}^{ \circ} [/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

the sum of the interior angles of a triangle is 180°

thus our equation is

[tex] \displaystyle {51}^{ \circ} + {51}^{ \circ} + \angle2 = {180}^{ \circ} [/tex]

simplify addition:

[tex] \displaystyle {102}^{ \circ} + \angle2 = {180}^{ \circ} [/tex]

cancel 102° from both sides:

[tex] \displaystyle \angle2 = {72}^{ \circ} \cdots \text{I}[/tex]

By straight line theorem we acquire:

[tex] \displaystyle \angle4 + \angle2 = {180}^{ \circ} [/tex]

substitute:

[tex] \displaystyle \angle4 + {72}^{ \circ} = {180}^{ \circ} [/tex]

cancel 72° from both sides:

[tex] \displaystyle \angle4 = {108}^{ \circ} [/tex]

hence, the measure of [tex]\angle 4[/tex] is 108°

75 as a fraction of 125 would be 75/125

Now Lets simplify

75/25=3

125/25=5

We get 3/5

We can not reduce 3/5 anymore, so the answer is 3/5

A fraction is a way to describe a part of a whole. such as the fraction ¼ can be described as 0.25. 75 is 3/5 fraction of 125.

A fraction is a way to describe a part of a whole. such as the fraction ¼ can be described as 0.25.

Let 75 be x fraction of 125. Therefore, we can write the statement as,

x × 125 = 75

x = 75/125

x = 3 /5

Hence, 75 is 3/5 fraction of 125.

x + 14 = 5x - 74 (corresponding angles are equal to each other)

[tex]x + 14 = 5x - 74 \\ 14 + 74 = 5x - x \\ 88 = 4x \\ \frac{88}{4} = x \\ 22 = x[/tex]

Answer:

22

Step-by-step explanation:

Angles x + 14 and 5x - 74 are adjacent angles.

Adjacent angles are equal.

5x - 74 = x + 14

5x - x = 14 + 74

4x = 88

x = 88 / 4

x = 22

Answer:

D) 205

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : Cost = 83 - 2 (time taken) + 6 (materials) + 1.1 (marketing cost)

Relationship Equation : y = 83- 2x1+ 6x2 + 1.1x3

Given, time (x1) = 5 , materials (x2) = 4 , marketing cost (x3) = 100

So, putting values, Cost : y = 83 - 2 (5) + 6 (4) + 1.1 (100)

= 83 - 10 + 24 + 110 = 207  

The closest to this calculated estimated figure ie 207, is 205.

Answer:

40 percent

Step-by-step explanation:

Start by taking the difference of the two values:

35-25 = 10.

the $10 is how much the value increased by.

To get the percent that the $25 increased by, take 10/25 to get .4

This .4 can then be turned into a percentage when you multiply it by 100. = 40 percent.

You can check your answer by finding 40 percent of 25, which is 10.

Translation is usually movements like up, down, left, right.

Dilation is when one shape is bigger/smaller than the other, but still congruent.

Reflections are usually done over an axis (x or y), and don't change the degree at which a shape is turned. From looking at the triangles, you can see that one triangle was turned clockwise.

For given data, being a girl and playing a sport are independent events as P(girl) = P(girl plays a sport) = 0.4.

"If A and B are independent events then, P(A∩B) = P(A).P(B)"

"It is a branch of mathematics which deals with finding out the likelihood of the occurrence of an event."

P(A) = n(A)/n(S)

where,  n(A) is the number of favorable outcomes, n(S) is the total number of events in the sample space.

For given question,

We have been given a table that shows the results broken down by gender.

             Play sports         Do not play sports       Total

Boy            105                            75                        180

Girl             70                             50                        120

Total          175                            125                       300

Using the definition of probability:

⇒ P(girl)  = Number of girls/ Number of students

⇒ P(girl) = 120/300

⇒ P(girl) = 0.4                     ....................(1)

Now we find the probability of girls that play a sport.

Using the definition of probability:

P(girl plays a sport)

= Number of girls who plays a sport/ number of students who plays a sport

= 70/ 175

= 0.4                                    ......................(2)

From (1) and (2),

P(girl) = P(girl plays a sport)

Thus, being a girl and playing a sport are Independent events.
