Answer: 192 pounds.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x denotes the weight of Frances ( in pounds ).

Given : The ratio between Frances and Carolina's weight is 8: 7

If Carolina weighs 168 pounds, then using proportion s we have the equation below :-

$\dfrac{x}{168}=\dfrac{8}{7}\\\\\Rightarrow\ x=\dfrac{8\times168}{7}\ \ \text{[Multiply 168 on both sides]}\\\\\Rightarrow\ x=8\times24=192$

Therefore, the weight of Frances = 192 pounds.

Suppose that demand in period 1 was 7 units and the demand in period 2 was 9 units. Assume that the forecast for period 1 was fo

Zepler [3.9K]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Forecast for period 1 is 5

Demand For Period 1 is 7

Demand for Period 2 is 9

Forecast can be given by

$F_{t+1}=F_t+\alpha (D_t-F_t)$

where

$F_{t+1}=Future Forecast$

$F_t=Present\ Period\ Forecast$

$D_t=Present\ Period\ Demand$

$\alpha =smoothing\ constant$

$F_{t+1}=5+0.2(7-5)$

$F_{t+1}=5.4$

Forecast for Period 3

$F_{t+2}=F_{t+1}+\alpha (D_{t+1}-F_{t+1})$

$F_{t+2}=5.4+0.2\cdot (9-5.4)$

$F_{t+2}=6.12$

Henry's uncle from Japan promised to give him 35 g of gold. The local jewelry exchange will buy gold for $1224 per ounce. How mu

galina1969 [7]

Answer:

$1530

Step-by-step explanation:

First of all, it is required to convert 35g of gold into ounce.

Since,

1 oz = 28 g

or, we can write,

$1 g = \frac{1}{28} oz$

Now, for 35 g of gold, we can write,

$35 * 1 g = 35 * \frac{1}{28} oz\\35 g = 1.25 oz$

Since, local jewelry will buy at $ 1224 per oz, and we have 1.25 oz of gold, so,

$1.25 * 1244\\$1530$
