There are four steps in the manufacturing process of a stuffed toy: cutting, stuffing, sealing, and packaging. There are two emp

loyees each for cutting and stuffing but one each for sealing and packaging. The processing times of cutting, stuffing, sealing, and packaging are 8, 5, 3, and 2 seconds per toy per employee.a) What is the cycle time for stage "cutting" (in [min/unit])?b) What is the cycle time for stage "sealing" (in [min/unit])?c) Which stage is the bottleneck? What is the process capacity in [units/hour]?d) If you can add one employee in parallel at the bottleneck stage, what should be the capacity of a new employee so that you increase the process capacity as much as possible?

Answer:

(a) 2min/15units

(b) 1min/20units

(c) The bottleneck stage is cutting. The process capacity is 450units/hour

(d) The capacity of the new employee should be 1unit/2sec. The process capacity will increase four times

Step-by-step explanation:

(a) Cycle time for stage cutting for 2 employees = 16sec/2units × 1min/60sec = 2min/15units

(b) Cycle time for stage sealing for 1 employee = 3sec/1unit × 1min/60sec = 1min/20units

(c) Process capacity of stage cutting = 15units/2min × 60min/1hour = 450units/hour

(d) If the capacity of the new employee is 1unit/2sec, the process capacity = 1unit/2sec × 3600sec/1hour = 1800units/hour. The process capacity increases 4 times (1800/450 = 4)

A linear function is graphed below.
Evgen [1.6K]

Answer:

-1\frac{1}{2}

Step-by-step explanation:

We have two coordinate points and are asked to find a slope.

When finding slope, we can use the formula listed :

\frac{y^2-y^1}{x^2-x^1}}

To understand what the variables are, you can take this :

(x^1,y^1)

(x^2,y^2)

Substitute the points :

(-1,4)

(5,-5)

Now substitute it into the formula :

\frac{-5-4}{5-(-1)}

\frac{-3}{2}

-1\frac{1}{2}

Answer:

diagonal = = 12.8 inches (to the nearest tenth of an inch)

Step-by-step explanation:

As shown in the diagram attached to this solution:

Let the Length of the rectangular board = a

Let the width = b

Let the diagonal = d

where:

a = 10 inches

b = 8 inches

d = ?

Triangle ABC in the diagram is a right-angled triangle, therefore, applying Pythagoras theorem:

(hypotenuse)² = (Adjacent)² + (Opposite)²

d² = 10² + 8²

d² = 100 + 64

d² = 164

∴ d = √(164)

d = 12.806 inches

d = 12.8 inches (to the nearest tenth of an inch)

<em>N:B Rounding off to the nearest tenth of an inch is the same as rounding off to 1 decimal place.</em>

Kerry purchased a used car for 14,4000. And had to pay 8% sales tax how much did she pay
saul85 [17]

Answer:

Kerry should pay = 155520

Step-by-step explanation:

Total amount paid = 14,4000 + 8% of 14,4000

It is given that,

Kerry purchased a used car for 14,4000. And had to pay 8% sales tax

<u>To find the 8% of 14,4000</u>

8% of 14,4000 = (8*144000)/100 = 11520

<u>To find total amount paid</u>

Total amount paid = 14,4000 + 8% of 14,4000

 = 14,4000 + 11520 =155520

Therefore Kerry should pay = 155520
