Then the most profitable investment is the first machine (third option) because for each dollar, it produces 2 pounds of candy.

<h3>Which of the following is the most profitable investment?</h3>

The first option is a worker that costs $10 per hour and produces 8lb, then this worker gives:

8lb/$10= <em>0.8 pounds per dollar.</em>

The second worker costs $12 per hour, and produces 16lb per hour, so this worker gives:

16lb/$12 = <em>1.33 pounds per dollar.</em>

The third option is a machine that cost $5 per hour and produces 10lb per hour, then:

10lb/$5 = <em>2 pound per dollar.</em>

The last option costs $8 per hour, and produces 14 pounds per hour, then:

14lb/$8 = <em>1.75 pounds per dollar.</em>

Then the most profitable investment is the first machine (third option) because for each dollar, it produces 2 pounds of candy.

Let F be a field, and suppose a EF, a *0. Prove that a has a unique multiplicative inverse.
bezimeni [28]

Answer with Step-by-step explanation:

Let F be a field .Suppose a\in F and a\neq 0

We have to prove that a has unique multiplicative inverse.

Suppose a has two inverses b and c

Then, ac=1,ab=1 where 1 =Multiplicative identity

ac=ab

c=b (cancel a on both sides)

Hence, a has unique multiplicative inverse.
