Because we do not have the same reading material as you do, we do not know the solution. In addition to that, you are posting the question in the wrong section. This is an economics question. Refer to your required text for the class for the solution.

Answer:

The entire Harry Porter Series cost $49.96 at Wal-Mart.

This is $3.04 less than their smaller competitors who sold at $53. They are able to do this because they understand how to utilize economies of scale to their advantage.

Is this ethical or not?

That is not the question. The forces of demand and supply have are amoral. It's a question of strategy and execution. The company with the best combination of both subject to the 'favor' of all other forces external to the business operations will nearly always win.

Cheers!

Problem 3: Let x = price of bag of pretzels Let y = price of box of granola bars  
We have Lesley's purchase: 4x+2y=13.50
 And Landon's: 1x+5y=17.55 
 We can use the elimination method. Let's negate Landon's purchase by multiplying by -1. -1x-5y=-17.55 
 We add this four times to Lesley's purchase to eliminate the x variable.
 2y-20y=13.50-70.2
 -18y=-56.7
 y = $3.15 = Price of box of granola bars
 
 Plug back into Landon's purchase to solve for pretzels.
 x+5*3.15=17.55
 x+15.75=17.55
 x = $1.80 = price of bag of pretzels
  
 Problem 4.
 Let w = number of wood bats sold
 Let m = number of metal bats sold
 
 From sales information we have: w + m = 23
 24w+30m=606 
 Substitution works well here. Solve for w in the first equation, w = 23 - m, and plug this into the second. 
 24*(23-m)+30m=606
 552-24m+30m=606
 6m=54
 m=9 = number of metal bats sold
 Therefore since w = 23-m, w = 23-9 = 14. 14 wooden bats were sold.

1 QUESTION-30 POINTS<br> QUESTION PINNED BELOW
galina1969 [7]

Answer:

The scale is not reasonable.

Step-by-step explanation:

The painting is 48 inches  by 120 inches

The scale is 1 inch = 4 inches

Divide the painting size by 4

48/4 = 12 inches

120/4 = 30 inches

We would need paper that is

12 inches by 30 inches

Our paper is 12 inches by 24 inches

It is too small.  The scale is not reasonable

A container ship left port last week caring some good weighing a total of 125,890 tons today I stopped in another port to unload
11Alexandr11 [23.1K]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

You need to be specific.  Did the weight decrease by 60 tons or 60 pounds?  I assume tons, but in math, you can't assume.

This problem seems overly simple, so I am wondering if some information is missing.  With the given information and assuming the decrease was in fact 60 tons, you would have:

125,890 - 60 = 125,830 tons
