5% Distribution Center: Theft and Damage - 4% Packaging Center: Damage - 3% Manufacturing: Defect rate - 4% Materials: Supplier defects - 5% How many units should the materials plan account for in order to meet the expected consumer demand? (Choose the closest answer.)

Answer: units = 6198

Step-by-step explanation:

expected consumer demand is 5000, the units that must be planned given shrinkage percentage levels in different stages of the supply chain we have to use the trial and error method.

lets try 6200 units

6200 x 95% = 5890, 5890 x 96% = 5654.4, 5654.40 x 97% = 5484.768, 5484.768 x 96% = 5265.37728, 56265 x 95% = 5002.108416 ≈ 5002

6198 units

(6198  x 95% = 5888.10) (5888.10 x 96% = 5652.576) (5652.576 x 97% = 5482.99872) (5482.99872 x 96% = 5263.6787712) (5263.6787712 x 95% = 5000.4948326) ≈ 5000

using the same procedure for 6197 units the answer will be 4999.688041

units that should be produced to cover the demand of 5000 = 6198

Tema [17]

Answer:

We have the problem:

"Clare is in charge of getting snacks for a road trip with her friends and her dog. She has

$35 to go to the store to get some supplies. The snacks for herself and her friends cost

$3.25 each, and her dog's snacks costs $9 each."

In this situation we have two variables:

X =  number of snacks for herself and her friends that she buys. Each one of these costs $3.50

Y = number of snacks for her dog that she buys. Each one of these costs $9.

The total cost, in this case, can be written as:

X*$3.50 + Y*$9

And we know that she has $35 to spend, so she can spend $35 or less in the store, then we have the inequality:

X*$3.50 + Y*$9  ≤ $35

Where we defined all the quantities in the inequality.

What is the slope of the diagonal line on the larger triangle? Explain how you found it.
Stolb23 [73]

Answer: 2/3 is the slope I think and for the same slope thing here is my answer:

We can use similarly of triangles in this case there will be a formation of 2 pairs equal ( angles formed by the y-axis on the parallel lines) angles between triangles formed as the y-axis lines are parallel. So,the slope is the same for both.

It wouldn’t be any of these I don’t think, however I don’t know what the # means.

I thought it would be C = 15 + x(0.20)

Hope this helps
