Answer:

189

Step-by-step explanation:

2lb = 6 people

Divide by 6 so you can see how many people can be fed with 1lb

1lb = 6 ÷ 2 = 3 people

Multiply by 63 so you can see how many people can be fed with 61lbs

63lb = 3 * 61 = 189 people

Find the volume and explain please ASAP.

olya-2409 [2.1K]

Answer:

1395in^3

Step-by-step explanation:

First find the volume of the cuboid, 15in x 9in x 7in = 945in^3

Then find the volume of the rectangular pyramid using the formula V=lwh/3, the total height is 17in so subtract the height of the cuboid from the total height, giving you 10in.

V=(15in)(9in)(10in)/3 = 450in^3

450in^3 + 945in^3 = 1395in^3

Vincent and Jean are two cooks who work in a village. Each of them can either bake cakes or make pizzas. Every ingredient is rea

babymother [125]

Answer:

a) Jean b) Jean c) Vincent d) Jean

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the following information in the question.

Vincent can bake 10 cakes or make 5 pizzas

Jean can bake 12 cake or make 8 pizzas.

a) Absolute advantage of baking cake

Jean has the absolute advantage of baking cake as he can bake more cakes as compared to Vincent.

b) Absolute advantage of making pizza

Jean has the absolute advantage of making pizza as he can make more pizzas as compared to Vincent.

In order to find comparative advantage, we find the opportunity cost which can be defined as:

$\text{Opportunity Cost} = \displaystyle\frac{\text{What one sacrifices}}{\text{What one gains}}$

c) Comparative advantage in baking cakes

Opportunity cost of Vincent for baking cakes = $\frac{5}{10} = \frac{1}{2}$

Opportunity cost of Jean for baking cakes = $\frac{8}{12} = \frac{2}{3}$

The less is the opportunity cost the better, hence, Vincent has comparative advantage in baking cakes.

d) Comparative advantage in making pizzas

Opportunity cost of Vincent for making pizzas = $\frac{10}{5} = 2$

Opportunity cost of Jean for making pizzas = $\frac{12}{8} = \frac{3}{2}$

The less is the opportunity cost the better, hence, Jean has comparative advantage in making pizzas.

What is the limit as x approaches negative infinity of (1.001)^x ...?

motikmotik

<span>To answer this question we need to know that because x will always be negative, it is the same as saying lim as x approaches infinity of 1/(1.001)^x. That is why we can say that the denominator will get bigger and bigger, making the fraction and therefore the limit closer and closer to 0. </span>

IceJOKER [234]

Answer:

1/15

Step-by-step explanation:

Ms. Fox loves to eat cereal and she notices that she only has 1/3 of the box of cereal left. If she spread that amount across 5 days, how much cereal will she have for each day?

The amount of cereal she would have per day is calculated as:

5 days = 1/3 of the box

1 day = x

Cross Multiply

5 days × x = 1 day × 1/3 of the box

x = 1/3 ÷ 5

x = 1/3 × 1/5

x = 1/15 of the box
