Rick gave his son $100 to buy food and drinks. His son returned with $25.50 in change. Therefore the amount spent was
$100 - $25.50 = $74.50.

Let
x = number of hot dogs bought (at $3.50 per hot dog).
y = number of milk shakes bought (at $8 per milk shake).
There were 8 orders of soda at $5 per soda.

The total order is $74.50, therefore
3.50x + 8y + 8*5 = 74.50
Simplify to obtain
8y = 74.5 - 3.5x
  y = 4.3125 - 0.4375x

We must have whole numbers (integers) for x and y.
Create a table that varies x from 0 to 8, and look for y to be an integer, as shown below.

  x       y
---  -------
 0   4.3125
 1    3.8750
 2   3.4375
 3   3
 4   2.5625
 5   2.1250
 6   1.6875
 7    1.2500
 8    0.8125

Because we cannot have fractional values for either x or y, the solution is x=3, y=3

Answer:
3 hot dogs, 3 milk shakes, and 8 sodas.

Which senior managers may assume a greater deal of transferability between domestic and international HRM practices?
astraxan [27]

Answer: d. All of the Above

Explanation:

All the above senior managers are more likely to apply more Domestic HRM practices to make them International HRM practices when they are put into a situation where International practices will be needed.

This is because they have been with the Domestic companies for much of their time and so know more about Domestic practices than international.

The first options refers to senior managers in firms with large domestic markets. To be a senior manager demands experience in the market they are in so it is not far fetched to say that they are more knowledgeable in domestic practices than international.

The second option speaks of managers with little International experience meaning they are more likely to engage in transferability between domestic and International practices.

The third option speaks of managers who built their careers on domestic experience. They will find it hard letting go of what has brought them such success so will more likely apply domestic practices on an international scale.

Lemur [1.5K]

<u>Calculation of Edelman's market/book ratio:</u>

Book value per share =Common Equity/ Shares of common stock outstanding
