MHB How Do You Calculate Average Revenue Per Group?

AI Thread Summary
To calculate average revenue per group, the probabilities and prices of each item ordered must be multiplied and summed. For Group A, the average revenue is calculated as (5*0.5) + (6*0.4) + (7*0.1), resulting in 5.6. For Group B, the calculation is (5*0.3) + (6*0.3) + (7*0.1), which needs to be completed for the final average revenue. The discussion highlights the importance of accurately applying probability to revenue calculations. Understanding these calculations is crucial for determining average revenue effectively.

Hi, I'm currently stuck on a homework question and I was hoping if I could get some help.

Group A has 50% chance of ordering french fries (price: 5),40%chanceoforderingmilkshake(price:6), and 10% chance of ordering a burger (price: 7).GroupBhas30%chanceoforderingfrenchfries(price:5), 30% of chance of ordering a milkshake (price: 6),and10%chanceoforderingaburger(price:7) .

What is the average revenue per group?

Not sure if my work is correct: Avg revenue for Group A: (5∗50%)+(6 * 40%) + (7∗10%)=5.6.
Avg revenue for Group B: (5∗30%)+(6 * 30%) + ($7 *10%)

Thread 'Non-orthogonal bases'

Suppose ,instead of the usual x,y coordinate system with an I basis vector along the x -axis and a corresponding j basis vector along the y-axis we instead have a different pair of basis vectors ,call them e and f along their respective axes. I have seen that this is an important subject in maths My question is what physical applications does such a model apply to? I am asking here because I have devoted quite a lot of time in the past to understanding convectors and the dual...

Thread 'What Exactly is Dirac’s Delta Function? - Insight'

Insights auto threads is broken atm, so I'm manually creating these for new Insight articles. In Dirac’s Principles of Quantum Mechanics published in 1930 he introduced a “convenient notation” he referred to as a “delta function” which he treated as a continuum analog to the discrete Kronecker delta. The Kronecker delta is simply the indexed components of the identity operator in matrix algebra Source: https://www.physicsforums.com/insights/what-exactly-is-diracs-delta-function/ by...
