Which investment produces a $5 hourly profit for a candy shop earning $1 profit per pound of candy?

To determine which investment produces a $5 hourly profit for a candy shop, earning $1 profit per pound of candy, we have to analize each option.

1- Worker at $10 per hour, producing eight pounds of candy per hour. This option results in a $2 loss per hour, since the earnings are lower than the costs (8-10= -2).

2- Worker at $12 per hour, producing 16 pounds of candy per hour. This one results in a $4 profit, as the cost is lower than the earnings (16-12= 4).

3- Machine with $5 per hour operating cost, producing 10 pounds of candy per hour. Here we have a $5 profit, as the cost is of $5 and the earnings are of $10 (10-5= 5).

4- Machine with $8 per hour operating cost, producing 14 pounds of candy per hour . In this option, we have a $6 profit (14-8= 6).

So, the investment that produces a $5 hourly profit for a candy shop earning $1 profit per pound of candy is the third option, that is, a machine with $5 per hour operating cost, producing 10 pounds of candy per hour.

D because there are 14 pounds of candy then that's $14 per hour and a machine costs $8 per hour to operate so $14 - $8 =$6 so you earn a profit of $6 

<span>A, loses profit </span>
<span>B, earns $4 profit </span>
<span>C, earns $5 profit </span>
<span>D, earns $6 profit</span>

Disadvantages of exclusion​
Shkiper50 [21]

Answer:

There are many disadvantages of exclusion in societies. One disadvantage is that social exclusion creates parallel sub-societies and sub-cultures within a society, that threaten the social order of a particular area.

Another disadvantage, related with the first, is that exclusion leads to little dialogue among different social groups. This can greatly increased social conflict, political extremism and radicalization, and in extreme cases, as history has shown many times, could lead to civil war.

Difference between first past the post system and proportional system??​
bulgar [2K]

Answer:

In the first past the post system, as the name implies, the party or candidate winning the a plurality of votes obtains all the political seats being contested.

For example, suppose we have three parties, and 20 seats being contested in a fictional election. The results are:

Red party - 60%

Green party - 30%

Blue party - 10%

Under a first past the post system, the Red Party would obtain all the 20 seats.

Under a proportional system, on the other hand, each party or candidate gets a proportional amount of seats corresponding to the percentage of the votes.

For example, if the number of seats contested is 20, and we obtain the same results as above, the number of seats for each party (in bold) would be:

Red party - 60%  - 12 seats

Green party - 30% - 6 seats

Blue party - 10% - 2 seats
