Answer:

B) Hillward can sue Hobert since the logo has been used by Hillward and is associated with it.

Explanation:

Since Hillwards logo is an elaborate piece of creative art, then they can sue Hobert for using their logo since it was associated directly to them during the past decade. Common logos are not usually protected by copyright unless they show significant creative artwork done.

It is always better and easier to protect a logo when it is a registered trademark but even if you haven't registered it you can still sue and win for infringement. When a company uses a logo, especially for a long time, it is establishing common law trademark rights.

This is section 3.7 problem 60: a clothing manufacturer has the cost function c(x)=1200+30x+0.5x2 , (in dollars), 0≤ x≤ 250 , wh
viktelen [127]

Answer:

90 suits per week must be produced and sold to achieve the maximum profit of $2,850.

Explanation:

The profit function is given by the revenue function minus the cost function:

P(x) = R(x) - C(x)\\P(x)=120x -1200-30x-0.5x^2

The number of suits, x, for which the derivate of the profit funtion is zero, is the production volume that maximizes profit:

P'(x)=0=120-30-x\\x=90\ suits

The profit generated by producing 90 suits is:

P(90)=120*90 -1200-30*90-0.5*90^2\\P(90) = \$2,850

Therefore, 90 suits per week must be produced and sold to achieve the maximum profit of $2,850.

Rus_ich [418]

Answer:

(B) Advice the production and purchasing department to produce or order smaller quantities of products.

Explanation:

According to my research on basic economics and business owning I can say that the best thing for Georgia to do in this situation in order to help her company become more value driven is to Advice the production and purchasing department to produce or order smaller quantities of products. This is because since product is not selling fast enough they should sell what they already have before producing more, otherwise they will be wasting money on products which will eventually cause them to be overflowing stock. Thus losing money.

I hope this answered your question. If you have any more questions feel free to ask away at Brainly.
