Answer:

b. 16% defectives

Explanation:

Let the number of units shipped be N

Let the defect rate be y%

Cost of replacing defectives once shipped = (y/100)×N× 2.5  ........equation (1)

Cost of 100% inspection = N × 0.4 .........equation (2)

At the indifference point, both costs, that is the replacement cost and inspection cost are equal. Therefore, we make both equations (1) and (2) equal.

N × 0.4 = (y/100)×N× 2.5

100 × 0.4 = y ×2.5

y = 40/2.5 = 16

She is indifferent at 16% defectives

[30 PTS + BRAINLIEST]
saw5 [17]

Answer:

C

Explanation:

A farmer would want to look at the economic status of the US because his goal is to sell as much wheat as possible and make the most profit. If he pays no attention to the economy and there's a recession but he still sells his wheat at the normal price, people whose stocks are going down and who are losing money will be unable to, and unwilling to, pay the price. Thus, the farmer must inspect the changing economic statuses of the US to determine the best and most effective way to market out his wheat to the public.

Changes in US racial patterns have no impact on the marketing of the farmer's wheat, so A is incorrect.

The number of births per year is also irrelevant, as is the general population growth numbers because these do not affect the way the farmer will market his crops, so B and D are incorrect.

Hope this helps!

brilliants [131]

Answer:

Should not be concerned

Explanation:

In the scenario being described, it can be said that the homeowner should not be concerned. That is because even though she did discriminate against the individual, Single-family homes rented without the use of a real estate agent or advertising are exempt from the federal Fair Housing Act. This holds true as long as the owner of the property does not own more than three homes at any given time. Therefore since there was no real estate agent, the man can't sue.
