Answer:

I'd say x=2

Step-by-step explanation:

use distributive property first to get...

-2 + 12x - 9 = 16

now look for the like terms and solve...

-2 + 12x -9 = 16

+2 +2

12x -7+7 = 16 +7

12x = 24

/12 /12

x=2

-2 + 3(4x - 3) = 16
-2 + 12x - 9 = 16
-11 + 12x = 16
-11 + 11 + 12x = 16 + 11
12x = 27
12x/12 = 27/12
X = 2 3/12
X = 2 1/4

2 wholes and 3/12 + 3/? = 2 wholes and 5/8 .what is the missing number ?
Sladkaya [172]
Basically you know that the 2 wholes from both sides cancel out.

Set up the equation, 5/8 = 3/12 + 3/x

3/x =  5/8 - 3/12

Set them to have a common denominator, 3/x = 15/24 - 6/24

3/x = 9/24

Simplify 9/24 and you will get 3/8

3/x = 3/8

Obviously this means x = 8

C6.1 PA1 short term decision Artisan Metalworks has a bottleneck in their production that occurs within the engraving department
laila [671]

Answer: $4850

Step-by-step explanation:

The other information related to the question is:

Direct materials = $3.50

Direct labor = $1.10

Variable overhead = $0.45

Fixed overhead = $2.80

Total = $7.85

Based on the information given in the question, the increase in the profit will be calculated as the contribution from the 3000 extra units minus the worker's salary.

Contribution from 3000 units will be:

= (Selling price - Direct materials - Direct labor - Variable overhead) × 3000

= ($25 - $3.50 - $1.10 - $0.45) × 3000

= $19.95 × 3000

= $59850

Increase on Profit:

= $59850 - $55000

= $4850
