X - the number of sandwiches
y - the number of soups

x+y=18 \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \  |\times (-4.5) \\
7.75x+4.5y=113.5 \\ \\
-4.5x-4.5y=-81 \\
\underline{7.75x+4.5y=113.5} \\
7.75x-4.5x=113.5-81 \\
3.25x=32.5 \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \  |\div 3.25 \\
x=10

10 sandwiches were ordered. The answer is D.

The production possibilities curve may shift outward as a result of a(n)
Fynjy0 [20]
Statements A, B, C, and E will all cause shift of production possibilities curve outwards. This is because:

Statement A: Training of workers will mean improved skills and knowledge. This will in turn lead to increased productivity and may lead to efficiency and thus increased production.

Statement B: Decrease in cost of production will lead to production of more goods and thus the curve will shift outwards.

Statement C: Increase in short-run aggregate supply may mean supply of more raw materials to the production thus increased productivity.

Statement D: Increase in customer spending will mean increased demand and thus leads to shifting in supply. This leads to increased production.<span />

A=20,000(1.08)^t Is this equation exponential growth or decay? explain your answer
Talja [164]

Answer:

growth

Step-by-step explanation:

Exponential function represents f (x) = a ^ x

First, the derivative is f '(x) = xa ^ (x-1)

Because when a is greater than 1

(1.08>1)

The values of derivative functions are all greater than 0, so they are monotonically increasing in the domain of definition

So when the base number is greater than 1, it is an increasing function

And the larger the index, the larger the number

I hope it can help you
