If you know the rugs sell for 8$ per square foot and the total spend was $432. You divide 432 by 8 to find the total number of square foot of the rug. Which is 54. To find total square foot you find the area. So the area of a rectangle is L*W. So 54 = 9*width. So just divide 54 by 9 and you get the width of the rug. The width is 6 foot. Now you check. A nine by 6 rugs square foot is 54. and then times by 8 and you get 432 total. So you know the rug is 6 foot wide. :)

A manufacturer has been selling hats at $8 a piece, and at this price, consumers have been buying 6000 hats per month. The manuf
gtnhenbr [62]

Answer:

$10

Step-by-step explanation:

Initial selling price per hat= $8

Number of hat sold= 6000

Revenue generated = $8*6000=$48000

Cost of producing hats = $4 per hat

Production cost = $4*6000=$24000

Profit = $48000-$24000=$24000

Increasing the price per hat by $2

Selling price per hat = $2+$8=$10

Number of hats sold are 500 fewer = 6000-500= 5500 hats

Revenue generated = $10*5500 = $55000

Cost of production is the same , where $4 per hat = $4*5500 =$22000

Profit generated = $55000-$22000 =$33000

This means at a price of $10 per hat , selling 500 fewer hats, the manufacture still makes a profit of $33000 which is $9000 more. It will be reasonable to hat at $10 because the profit will increase.

Elodia [21]

Answer:

Average day end balance using weighted average = $1,316.667

Average day end balance using simple average = $1,050

Step-by-step explanation:

Provided opening balance = $1,200

During the month addition in such balance = $500

New balance as on 16 November = $1,200 + $500 = $1,700

Further by the end of month of November balance after payment = $1,700 - $800

= $900

Thus, opening balance = $1,200

Closing = $900

Simple average = \frac{1,200 + 9,00}{2} = 1,050

Day end balance = $1,050

For this weighted average can be done

First 15 days balance = $1,200 as no transaction was done.

From 16  to 25 November balance increased by $500 = $1,700 for 10 days

Remaining days = 5 days = $1,700 - $800 paid = $900

Using weighted average we have

\frac{(1,200 \times 15) + (1,700 \times 10) + (900 \times 5)}{30} = \frac{39,500}{30} = 1,316.667

Day end balance = $1,316.667
