Answer:

q = 15

n = 25

Step-by-step explanation:

Solution

Let the nickels = n

Let the quarters = q

q + n = 40                            (1)

0.25*d + 0.05*n = 5.00       (2)    Multiply 2 by 100 to get everything into pennies. It is currently in dollars.

25q + 5n = 500                    Multiply (1) by 5

5q + 5n = 200                     Subtract

20q = 300                           Divide by 20

20q/20 = 300/20               Do the division

q = 15

q + n = 40                             Substitute 15 for q

15 + n = 40                           Subtract 15 from both sides

15 - 15 + n = 40 - 15              

n = 25

Check

15 * 0.25 + 25 * 0.05

3.75 +  1.25

5

Which is what it should equal.

The Edward James Toy Company uses a Kanban system to make plastic wheels that are a component of several toys. The waiting time
pickupchik [31]

Answer:

N_c \approx 5.0

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question we are told that:

Waiting time for a container of the wheels during production T_w=0.25day

Average processing time is T_a=0.15 day per container

Wheel per container N_w=200

Total wheel per day D=2000

Policy variable of X=5%  

Generally the equation for Total number of container N_c is mathematically given by

N_c=DT(\frac{1+X}{N_w} )

Where

Total time T=T_w+T_a

T=0.15+0.25

Therefore

N_c=DT(\frac{1+X}{N_w} )

N_c=2000*0.40(\frac{1+0.5}{200} )

N_c=(\frac{840}{200} )

N_c=4.2

N_c \approx 5.0

Therefore the number of Kanban containers needed for the wheels is

N_c \approx 5.0

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

If slope of two lines are equal, then they are parallel lines.

If product of the slope of two lines is (-1), then they are perpendicular lines.

C) y = x + 2

Slope m1 = 1

y = -x + 3

Slope m2 = -1

m1 * m2 = 1 * (-1) = -1

These are perpendicular lines.

D) y = 3x + 2

Slope = m1 = 3

y = 3x - 2

Slope = m2 = 3

Slopes are equal. So, they are parallel lines.

E)y= 3

This line is parallel to x -axis.

x = 4

This line is parallel to y-axis.

So, both lines are perpendicular to each other.

F) y = x + 8

slope m1  = 1

y = -x + 3

Slope = m2 = -1

M1 * m2 = 1 * (-1) = -1

So, These are perpendicular lines
