Answer:

Correct answer for why a firm in perfect competition is a price taker is option  <u>A. it produces a tiny proportion of the total output of a particular good and buyers are well informed about the prices of other firms</u>

Explanation:

A price taker is a company that has no control to dictate prices for a good or service.

In the stock exchange market, a price taker is a trader who does not affect the price of the stock if he or she buys or sells shares.

A price taker is a business that sells such available products that it must accept the prevailing market price for its products. For example, a farmer produces wheat, which is a readily available. The farmer can only sell at the prevailing market price or lose.

All economic participants are considered to be price-takers in a market of perfect competition or one in which all companies sell an identical product, there are no barriers to entry or exit, every company has a relatively small market share, and all buyers have full information of the market.

A list of n items is arranged in random order; to find a requested item, they are searched sequentially until the desired item is
kompoz [17]
<span>n/2 = average number of items to search. Or more precisely (n+1)/2 I could just assert that the answer is n/2, but instead I'll prove it. Since each item has the same probability of being searched for, I'll simulate performing n searches on a list of n items and then calculate the average length of the searches. So I'll have 1 search with a length of 1, another search looks at 2, next search is 3, and so forth and so on until I have the nth search looking at n items. The total number of items looked at for those n searches will be: 1 + 2 + 3 + 4 + ... + n Now if you want to find the sum of numbers from 1 to n, the formula turns out to be n(n+1)/2 And of course, the average will be that sum divided by n. So we have (n(n+1)/2)/n = (n+1)/2 = n/2 + 1/2 Most people will ignore that constant figure of 1/2 and simply say that if you're doing a linear search of an unsorted list, on average, you'll have to look at half of the list.</span>

A Quality Analyst wants to construct a sample mean chart for controlling a packaging process. He knows from past experience that
ZanzabumX [31]

On Monday and Tuesday, the process appears to be out of control.                                                                                                                                                

<u>Explanation</u>:

  • There are five days Monday, Tuesday,Wednesday, Thursday and Friday. Monday and Tuesday have weight up to 21. Wednesday weights up to 21.
  • Thursday and Friday weigh up to 20. Except for Monday and Tuesday, all the days have packaged up to the value of  21. So Monday and Tuesday are the days that appear to be out of control.
  • On checking the package for each day he came to know that Monday and Tuesday have process out of control.

An operations manager observes a new production process. Based on production of the first 32 ​units, the manager estimates that
Leviafan [203]

Answer:

<em>The answer is 17.01 minutes</em>

Explanation:

<em>Given that:</em>

<em>The learning rate (r) = 85% = 0.85</em>

<em> T₃₂= 23.52 minutes</em>

<em>By applying the learning curve formula</em>

<em>Thus,</em>

<em>Tₙ = T₁ nᵇ</em>

<em>Where b represent ln(r)/ln2</em>

<em>b = ln( 0.85)/ln2 = -0.2344</em>

<em>23.55 = T₁ * (32)^-0.2344</em>

<em>T₁ = 23.55 * (32)^0.2344</em>

<em>Now,</em>

<em>T₁₂₈ = T₁ (128)^ - 0.2344</em>

<em>= 23.55 * (32)^0.2344 * (128)^ - 0.2344</em>

<em>=17.01 minutes</em>
