d. Design planning

Explanation:

According to a different source, the options for the second question are the following:

a. Product design

b. Production

c. Research and development

d. Design planning

In the first example, Ford is engaging in basic research. Basic research refers to a type of research in which the goals are not specific. It is generally driven by a desire to increase our understanding of a particular situation, even if this understanding is not used for anything in concrete yet. On the other hand, design planning refers to the development of a plan for converting an idea into an actual product.

Answer:

The correct answer is c. basic research.

Explanation:

Basic research or fundamental research, is the science or research that is carried out without immediate practical purposes, but in order to increase knowledge of the fundamental principles of nature or of reality itself.

By not throwing immediate benefits (economic or social), it could be seen as a simple exercise of curiosity (which is actually a basic human quality and one of the essential reasons for the scientific activity of all time). However, in a longer or shorter period the results of basic research find practical applications, in the form of commercial developments, new techniques or procedures in production or communications, or other forms of social benefit and knowledge.

The relationship between basic science and applied science (which is its opposite concept) is crucial for the interrelationship called "research and development" (R&D) or "research, development and innovation" (R&D), object of the studies of science, technology and society (STS).

Swifty Corporation reported net sales of $690000, $730000, and $828000 in the years 2016, 2017, and 2018, respectively. If 2016
Flura [38]

Answer:

120%

Explanation:

Given net sales;

Year 1996 = $690000

Year 1997 = $730000

Year 1998 = $828000

With 1996 as the base year, it means the percentage of any year can be computed by dividing the net sales for that year with the net sales for 1996 and expressing the results as a percentage.

1998 sales as a percentage of  the base represents

= $828000/$690000

= 1.2

Expressed as a percentage, this is 120%.

How long does it take to become a​ millionaire? A ​$500,000 investment will hit​ $1 million in 39 years at an annual interest ra
Solnce55 [7]

Answer:

It will take 30.10 year

Explanation:

We have given initial investment $500000

Future value = $ 1 million = $1000000

Rate of interest r = 1.79 %

We have to find the time taken to reach the amount $1000000

We know that future value is equal to A=P(!+\frac{r}{100})^n

1000000=500000(!+\frac{1.79}{100})^n

2=(1.0179)^n

Taking log both side

log2=nlog1.0179

n×0.0077 = 0.3010

n = 39.09 year

Now in second case rate of interest

r = 2.34 %

So 1000000=500000(1+\frac{2.34}{100})^n

2=(1+\frac{2.34}{100})^n

2=1.0234^n

taking log both side

log 2 = n log 1.0234

n×0.01 = 0.3010

n = 30.10 year
