Consider a process restringing tennis rackets. The process starts with a unit cost of $10 for the first unit—that is, c(1) = 10—

geniusboy [140]

Answer:

The correct answer is $5.83.

Explanation:

According to the scenario, the given data are as follows:

Cost for 1st unit (C1) = $10

Learning rate (LR) = 0.9

So, we can find the unit cost for 35th unit by using logarithmic approach as follows:

$C_{N}$ = $C_{1} N^{b}$

Where, $C_{N}$ = C is for cost and N is for number of unit

$C_{1}$ = Cost of 1st unit

$N^{b}$ = N is for number of unit and b is for slope of learning curve.

So, b = (Log of the learning rate) / (Log 2)

So, by putting the value, we get

$C_{35}$ = $10 × $35^{\frac{Log 0.9}{log 2} }$

= $10 × 0.583

= $5.83

Hence, the unit cost for the 35th unit will be $5.83.

Prompt 1 in his 2015 papal encyclical, laudato si', in which he addresses climate change and our collective responsibility to ca

iogann1982 [59]

Suppose in studying Climate Change we discover that in one country, deserts are going to be created where formerly there was grasslands and an abundance of water and in another place the coastlines are going to be altered. If you are an American, how do you think a politician is going to respond to such a problem.

Will his/her response be well thought out based on scientific preparedness, or will he (or she) grab onto the first solution suggestion to him/her and try and implement that?

Whatever he/she does, it will cost and everyone will be affected. A starting place is to find out what presidents in the past have done. During the Bush administration (the second Bush), there was an oil crisis. He responded by allocating more acreage to the growing of corn so supplementing oil production. Replaceable resources for non renewable ones. Sounded like a very good solution, but was it? As it turned out, no. He was robbing Peter to pay Paul. Thousands of people suffered (and died) with that decision because food is much more important than solving transportation problems at the expense of food.

The same is true here. If a solution is sought for global warming, politicians have to be well aware of what they are doing. And that has to be studied very carefully.

On April 1, the price of gas at Bob’s Corner Station was $4.95 per gallon. On May 1, the price was $5.45 per gallon. On June 1,

AnnyKZ [126]

Answer: Please refer to Explanation

Explanation:

1. a. Between April 1 and May 1, Bob’s price increased by $0.50 , or by ___ %.

To calculate, divide the difference in the amounts by the amount the change occured from.

The price increased by $0.50 from $4.95. Percentage Increase should be,

= 0.5 / 4.96 * 100%

= <u>10.1%</u>

b. Between May 1 and June 1, Bob’s price decreased by $ , or ____ %.

The Price by $0.5 from $5.95 to $4.95

= 0.5/5.95

<u>= -9.17% (</u>negative because it was a price decrease)

2. Across the street, their price is 20% higher than Bob's.

When Bob's prices are $5.45, there's are,

= 5.45 * ( 1 + 20%)

= 5.45 * 1.2

= $6.54

Difference is,

= 6.54 - 5.45

= <u>$1.09</u>

3. The Fed raised it's rate from 2% to 2.75%.

The change is,

= 2.75% - 2%

= 0.75%

This is a percentage Change of,

= 0.75/2 * 100%

= 37.5%

This change of <u>0.75</u> percentage points means that the Fed raised its target by approximately <u>37.5%.</u>

A stores new environmental policy (PLS HELP ASAP)

Marat540 [252]

The policy is not practical because it is not enforceable. Lots of shops or businesses will not practice this as it will scare customers away.

<h3>Why is the policy not fair?</h3>

The policy is not fair because throw away paper is recyclable while plastic bags are not. Hence people who use paper should not be charged as much as those who use plastic bags, if at all.

<h3>What is the saving due if a person brings their own container to bag their groceries?</h3>

They most likely wills save 5% on every purchase made.

<h3>Why are environmental policies important?</h3>

The goal of environmental law is to safeguard the

land,
air,
water, and
soil.

Infractions of these rules result in a variety of penalties, including fines, community service, and, in severe circumstances, jail time.

Without environmental regulations, the government would be unable to penalize people who harm the environment.
