Answer:

Option 4). Machine with $8 per hour operating cost, producing 14 pounds of candy per hour.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have to find the most profitable investment for a candy shop that earns $1 per pound of candy.

We will take up each option one by one.

Option 1).

Producing eight pounds of candy per hours means profit = $1×8 = $8

But workers take $10 per hours so expenditure = $8 - $10 = -$2

There is a loss of $2 in this investment.

Option 2).

Production of 16 pounds candy per hour will make the profit = $1 × 16 = $16

But workers take $12 per hour so profit earned = 16 - 12 = $4

Option 3).

Machine produces 10 pound of candy per hour so profit will be = $1 ×10 = $10

Operating cost of the machine = $5 per hour

So profit generated = profit - Operating cost of machine

                                 = 10 - 5 = $5

Option 4).

Profit earned by production of 14 pounds of candy per hour = $1 × 14 = $14

Operating cost of the machine = $8 per hour

Therefore, Total profit per hour = 14 - 8 = $6

Finally we can say that the maximum profit will be generated in option 4.

Therefore, Option 4) will be the best option to invest.

What are the end points of the triangle called? How are they labeled?
horrorfan [7]

For this case we have that by definition:

A triangle is defined by three lines that are called sides, or by three points called vertices.

We know that:

  1. <em>The vertices of a triangle are labeled with capital letters. </em>
  2. <em>The sides of a triangle are written with lowercase letters. </em>
  3. <em>The angles of a triangle are written similarly to the vertices. </em>

Answer:

The end points of the triangle are called vertices.

They are labeled in capital letters.

Write 0.31% as a decimal.
Varvara68 [4.7K]

Answer:

0.31% = 0.0031 in decimal form.

Step-by-step explanation:

Percent means 'per 100'. So, 0.31% means 0.31 per 100 or simply 0.31/100. If you divide 0.31 by 100, you'll get 0.0031 (a decimal number).

Verify the identity <br> Cos^2x-Sin^2x=1-2sin^2x
jek_recluse [69]
Cos^2x-Sin^2x=1-2sin^2x  \\  Cos^2x-Sin^2=cos(2x) \\ 1-2sin^2=cos2x \\ cos(2x) =cos2x \\   \\ \\ Cos^2x-Sin^2x=1-2sin^2x  \\ \mathrm{cos^2x+sin^2x=1 ~~~\Rightarrow ~~cos^2x=1-sin^2x} } \\ 1-sin^2x-sin^2x=1-2sin^2x \\ 1-2sin^2x=1-2sin^2x
