Answer:

The slope of indifference curve is 7.

Explanation:

The marginal utility of good Y = 2X^2

The marginal utility of good X = 4XY

Given Y = 7

X = 2

The slope of the indifference curve is otherwise termed as the marginal rate of substitution. So, we can find the slope by dividing the marginal utility of Y by the marginal utility of X.

Slope = MUx / MUy

= 4XY / 2X^2

= 4Y / 2X

Now insert the value of X and Y.

= (4×7) / (2×2)

= 28/4

= 7  

Hence the slope of the indifference curve is 7.

The Smelting Department of Kiner Company has the following production data for November. Production: Beginning work in process 3
Citrus2011 [14]

Answer:

(A) 18,400 units

(B) 12,940 units

Explanation:

The computation of the equivalent units of production for

(A) Material =  Units transferred out +  Ending work in process

                   = 9,300 units + 9,100 units

                   = 18,400 units

(B) Conversion  =  Units transferred out +  (Ending work in process × conversion percentage)

= 9,300 units + 9,100 units × 40%

= 9,300 units + 3,640 units

= 12,940 units

What is the minimum value of the box-and-whisker plot?
natka813 [3]

Answer:

A;36

Explanation:

So lets recall the different parts of a box and whisker plot.

The dot at the very right end of it is the maximum, where the largest number is.

After that, the box to the right is the upper quartile.

On the left, the box on the left is the lower quartile.

In between the right and left of the box is the median, which seperates the upper quartile by the lower quartile.

Finally, we have the dot farthest to the left, which is the minimum.

So on our box and whisker chart, lets look at the dot farthest to our left, since thats the minimum.

<u>This should be 36.</u>

Hope this helps! ;)

Frankenstein Enterprises received two notes from customers for sales that Frankenstein made in 2021. The notes included: Note A:
Brums [2.3K]

Answer:

9.17%

Explanation:

Interest on Note B = $227,000 * 8% * 6/12

Interest on Note B = $9,080

Remaining Interest = $16,300 - $9,080  = $7,220

Annual Interest Rate = $7,220 / $135,000 * 12/7

Annual Interest Rate =  0.0916825397

Annual Interest Rate = 9.16825397

Annual Interest Rate = 9.17%
