The policy that makes the largest proſit for the company is Policy A, by $1500.

<h3>Which policy makes the largest proſIt?</h3>

Profit is the amount paid by people to enter the sweepstakes less the amount they can win.

  • Policy A's profit: $5 - 0.1[(0.9 x $10) + (0.095 x $50) + (0.005 x $250)] = $5 - 1.5 = $3.5

$3.5 X 10,000 = $35,000

  • Policy B's profit:10 - 0.15[(0.8 x 10) + (0.18 x 50) + (0.02 x 250) = 10 - 3.30 = 6.7

$6.7 X 5000 = $33500

  • Difference in profits = $35,000 - 33500 = $1500

Find x in the given figure if m∠AOC = 130°. Question 7 options: A) –14 B) 8 C) 10.5 D) 14
soldi70 [24.7K]

Answer:

B) x=8

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve, we must find x like so:

We know that angle AOC = 130, so adding AOB and BOC will equal 130, then we solve for x.

(6x-5)+(8x+23)=130\\6x-5+8x+23=130\\14x+18=130\\14x=130-18\\14x=112\\x=\frac{112}{14}\\x=8

Someone please help me with this.
liubo4ka [24]
  • Radius=r=0.7m
  • Volume=231m^3
  • Height=h

\boxed{\sf Volume=\pi r^2h}

\\ \sf\longmapsto π(0.7)^2h=231

\\ \sf\longmapsto 0.49πh=231

\\ \sf\longmapsto πh=\dfrac{231}{0.49}

\\ \sf\longmapsto 3.14h=471.4

\\ \sf\longmapsto h=\dfrac{471.4}{3.14}

\\ \sf\longmapsto h=150m
