Scrat [10]

Answer:

C) differences in the way consumers see themselves and in the way they see products and services.

Explanation:

People from different cultures tend to think that everyone thinks similarly to them, but actually people from different cultures view themselves differently.

For example, Arab states are very warm and have a lot of sunshine, but if you try to sell bikinis you will probably go bankrupt before selling any because culturally Arab women use a lot of clothes even at the beach.

India is the country with the most cattle in the world, but they do not eat beef, so McDonald's probably had to change their recipe when they started operating there.

Using this formula

After tax income for Virginia Bond=Face value*Virginia bonds of comparable risk

Let plug in the formula

After tax income for Virginia Bond=$100,000*4.5%

After tax income for Virginia Bond=$4,500

Calculation to Determine the after tax income for North Carolina Bond

Interest income before tax $4,600

Interest income net of state tax $4,370

($4,600-$230)

Add Federal marginal tax $81

(35%*230)

After tax income for Noth Caroline Bond $4,451

Sue plans to mix peppermints worth $1.20 per lb with chocolates worth $2.40 per lb to get a 40 lb mix that is worth $1.65 per lb

Lunna [17]

Answer:

Each should be used as follows:

Weight of peppermints = X = 25 lb

Weight of Chocolates = Y = 15 lb

Explanation:

Suppose

Weight of peppermints = X

Weight of Chocolates = Y

So According to given condition

X + Y = 40 (Eq. 1)

1.2X + 2.4Y = 1.65*40

1.2X + 2.4Y = 66 (Eq. 2)

By multiplying (Eq. 1) with 1.2 we get

1.2X + 1.2Y = 48 (Eq. 3)

Now by subtracting (Eq. 2) from (Eq. 3)

(1.2X + 1.2Y) - (1.2X + 2.4Y) = 48 - 66

1.2X + 1.2Y - 1.2X - 2.4Y = -18

1.2X - 1.2X + 1.2Y - 2.4Y = -18 (Rearrange)

-1.2Y = -18

1.2Y = 18

Y = 18/1.2

Y = 15

By placing value of Y in (Eq. 1)

X + 15 = 40

X = 40 - 15

X = 25

<u>Check</u>

1.2X + 2.4Y = 66

1.2 (25) + 2.4 (15) = 66

66 = 66

Gross Domestic Product (GDP) measures the dollar value of all item produced by the country plus his commercial balance over a period of one-year.

The GDP will increase by 35,000 as counting each state will induce in counting three times the same engive, and two times the value added of the body shop.

value added: the current value less the one of the previous stage

machinic sales it 7,000 from 0 so added 7,000

then the body shop sale it 20,000 from 7,000 added 13,000

the dealear sale it for 35,000 from 20,000 added 15,000
