Mathematics
1 answer:
dmitriy555 [2]1 year ago
8 0

Answer:

24

Step-by-step explanation:

the question translates to asking how many times does 7/8 fit in 21, so 21 divided by 7/8.

when we divide by a fraction, we can multiply by it's inverse, so 21 divided by 7/8, is 21 multiplied by 8/7. so:

21×8/7 = (21×8)/7 = (21/7)×8 = 3×8 = 24

What is equivalent to 3 to the negative 2nd power
VladimirAG [237]
3 to the negative second power is written like this: 3^{-2}. 

When simplifying an expression with a negative exponent, you take a positive version of the exponent, in this case that would be 2, and apply that to the base. 
After doing that, we have 9. 
The next step is to put one over that number.
In this case, now after doing that the answer is \frac{1}{9}. 

Hope this helps!

For a certain commodity the supply equation is given by S = 2p + 5 At a price of $1, there is a demand for 19 units of the commo
slava [35]

Answer:

The demand equation is: D=-4p+23

Step-by-step explanation:

To get started, we should keep in mind that the market price (p=3) occurs when supply equals demand ,therefore when p=3

S=2(3)+5=11

Thus, when p=3 D=11 and, according to the problem  when p=1 D=19.

We already know two points on the demand curve. Great!

The demand equation is linear, so it has form D=bp+c.

The variable b is the slope of  the demand linear equation . It can be computed through the formula

b=\frac{y2-y1}{x2-x1}.  equation 1

Substituting the two points (3,11) and (1,19) on equation 1.

b=\frac{19-11}{1-3} =\frac{8}{-2}

b=-4

Now we can find the value of  intercept of the demand equation c trough point-slope form y-y1=b(x-x1).

We can use any of the points. Let's take (3,11) and write in point-slope :

y-11=-4(x-3)

y=-4x+11+12

y=-4x+23

Rewrite the linear equation according our variables D and p

D=-4P+23

Finally we found the demand equation !

On the last day of the fiscal year, a co-worker asks you to cut a check for $2,000 as a miscellaneous expense for supplies in or
S_A_V [24]

Answer:

A. No, Should not in any way write the check today and neither record the expense or even write the check tomorrow.

B. The company will be affected if the check

was cut today and the expense was not recorded, which means that the net income of the current fiscal year will be increased by the amount of $2,000 while the net income of the next year will be reduced by the amount of $2,000 and this tend to happens due to some error.

Step-by-step explanation:

A. Based on accounting principle every debit entry must have a corresponding credit entry which means that in a situation where a check is been cut today for miscellaneous expense and for supplies the Miscellaneous expense account should be debited while the bank account should as well be credited based on the double entry principle because if not so the current year net income will wrongly shows and be higher with the amount of $2,000.

B. In a situation where the check was cut today and expense was recorded the following day or tomorrow it means that the current year financial statement net income will be increased by the amount of $2,000 while the amount shown in the balance sheet will decreased by the amount of $2,000.

Therefore I can issue a check today and as well record the expense the same day in which the check was issued.
