GE produces 5 different sizes of TVs using 2 machines. Different sizes of TVs take different amount of time to get processed at

each of the two machines, and bring in different amount of profit for the company per unit. GE has a limited amount of time to process TVs during each month but would like to find out how many of each size of TV to produce each month to maximize its total profit.

Answer:

Option # C: 5

Step-by-step explanation:

Decision variables, as the name imply are entities that can have different values in the given scenario and which in turn produce different outcomes. For our question, the variables are the sizes of TVs available, as the production time and profit depend on the sizes. Hence, TV sizes (i.e. 5) are our decision variables.

Furthermore, it does not matter on which machine the TVs are being manufactured as they will take identical time for same TV size. Thus we do not consider the number of machines as our decision variables.

Grace bought a television for $329 and some DVDs for $5.75 each. Write and equations to find out how many DVDs grace bought if s
marishachu [46]

The total number of DVDs that she bough is 6

<h3>Linear equations</h3>

Linear equation are expression that has a leading degree of 1.

Let the price of each DVD be x such that if Grace bought a television for $329 and some DVDs for $5.75 each  and spent a total of $363.50, ten;

329 + 5.75x = 363.5

Subtract 329 from both sides

329 + 5.75x - 329 = 363.5 - 329

5.75x = 34.5

x = 34.5/5.75

x = 6

This shows that the total number of DVDs that she bough is 6

Write the ratio 28 to 56 in simplest form
Andre45 [30]
The ratio shown in fraction form would be; \frac{28}{56}

Now to convert it to its simplest form, you need to find their greatest common factor; (so in this case it would be 28...cause 28 goes into 56 evenly)
*Now divide both terms by 28

28 ÷ 28 = 1
56 ÷ 28 = 2
 
so your ratio 28 to 56 in simplest form is.. \frac{1}{2}
Hope this helps :)

The standard configuration for an Arizona license plate is 3 digits (0 - 9) followed by 3 letters (of 26). If you can not repeat
Anna71 [15]

Answer:

11232000 plates can be made.

Step-by-step explanation:

The order of the digits and of the letters is important. For example, ABC is a different configuration than CBA. So we use the permutations formula to solve this question.

Permutations formula:

The number of possible permutations of x elements from a set of n elements is given by the following formula:

P_{(n,x)} = \frac{n!}{(n-x)!}

In this question:

3 digits from a set of 10(there are 10 digits from 0 to 9).

3 letters from a set of 26. So

Total:

T = P_{(10,3)} \times P_{(26,3)} = \frac{10!}{(10-3)!} \times \frac{26!}{(26-3)!} = 11232000

11232000 plates can be made.
