To answer this item, we let x be the current number of chairs. After adding 50 chairs to the current inventory, the total number of chairs would then be equal to x + 50. The equation that would allow us to determine the value of x is written below.
x + 50 = (3/2)(x)
Simplifying the equation,
x + 50 = 3x/2
x - 3x/2 = -50
-x/2 = -50
Dividing both sides of the equation by -1/2, the value of x is equal to 100.
To increase the inventory by 40%, the equation would be,
y = x(1.4) = 1.4(100) = 140
<em>ANSWER: 140 chairs</em>
Answer:
D) being original
Explanation:
An advertising copy is the main text or phrase used in an advertisement.
The copy used in this commercial is original, specially given the context. Generally advertisements show the product that is being advertised, not a substitute product (cow meat is substitute to chicken meat). This ad tries to be funny in showing that cows prefer people eating chicken instead of them.
Answer:
the firm should have sold less output in the local market, and more output on the internet auction site.
Explanation:
Based on the scenario being described within the question it can be said that in order to maximize profits the firm should have sold less output in the local market, and more output on the internet auction site. This is because marginal revenue indicates the additional revenue that will be generated by increasing product sales by one unit. Therefore since the internet auction site's marginal revenue is higher than the local store, it means that selling more units in the internet site will lead to more profit than the local market.
Answer:
$16,440
Explanation:
If Bruce is able to work 600 hours per year, his salary will be $3,600 (= $6 x 600), but he will lose $2,160 (= $3,600 x 60%) of welfare stipend.
His total welfare stipend is $15,000 if he is not able to work during the year.
Bruce's total income = $15,000 + $3,600 - $2,160 = $16,440
