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.

How do you find the midpoint of a trapezoid ?
FrozenT [24]
A trapezoid midsegment connects the midpoints of the two congruent sides of the trapezoid, and is parallel to the pair of parallel sides. The length of the midsegment is the sum of the two bases divided by 2. Remember that the bases of a trapezoid are the two parallel sides.

En un triangulo ABC, el angulo B mide 64° y el angulo C mide 72°. La bisectriz interior CD corta a la altura BH y a la bisectriz
nadezda [96]

Answer:

The difference between the greatest and the smallest angle of the triangle PBQ is 98°.

Step-by-step explanation:

The question is:

In a triangle ABC, angle B measures 64 ° and angle C measures 72°. The inner bisector CD intersects the height BH and the bisector BM at P and Q respectively. Find the difference between the greatest and the smallest angle of the triangle PBQ.

Solution:

Consider the triangle ABC.

The measure of angle A is:

angle A + angle B + angle C = 180°

angle A = 180° - angle B - angle C

             = 180° - 72° - 64°

             = 44°  

It is provided that CD and BM are bisectors.

That:

angle BCP = angle PCH = 36°

angle CBQ = angle QBD = 32°

angle BHC = 90°

Compute the measure of angle HBC as follows:

angle HBC = 180° - angle BHC + angle BCH

                  = 180° - 90° - 72°

                  = 18°

Compute the measure of angle BPC as follows:

angle BPC = 180° - angle PCB + angle CBP

                  = 180° - 18° - 36°

                  = 126°

Then the measure of angle BPQ will be:

angle BPQ = 180° - angle BPC

                  = 180° - 126°

angle BPQ = 54°

Compute the measure of angle PBQ as follows:

angle PBQ = angle B - angle QBD - angle HBC

                  = 64° - 32° - 18°

angle PBQ = 14°

Compute the measure of angle BQP as follows:

angle BQP = 180° - angle PBQ - angle BPQ

                  = 180° - 14° - 54°  

angle BQP = 112°

So, the greatest and the smallest angle of the triangle PBQ are:

angle BQP = 112°

angle PBQ = 14°

Compute the difference:

<em>d</em> = angle BQP - angle PBQ

  = 112° - 14°

  = 98°

Thus, the difference between the greatest and the smallest angle of the triangle PBQ is 98°.

Pedro bought 8 tickets to a basketball game. He paid a total of $208. Write an equation to determine whether each ticket cost $2
Kryger [21]
Here is the equation:

8x= 208

Divide both sides by 8.

x= 26

Each ticket costs 26 dollars. 

I hope this helps!
