                    1st sales         2nd sales           3rd sales            4th sales

                      person             person              person               person

Average Waiting

Time               10 minutes     6 minutes        3 minutes          2 minutes

Total waiting

Cost                  $720                $432                $216                 $144

                 (72 × $1 × 10)    (72 × $1 × 6)        (72 × $1 × 3)      (72 × $1 × 2)

Add: Total labor

Cost                   80                    $160                  $240                $320

                      ($80 × 1)            ($80 × 2)            ($80 × 3)         ($80 × 4)

Total cost          $800               $592                  $456                $464

Thus, 3 servers have the lowest cost, so that the overall cost per change with 3 Sales people is chosen.

Which of the following would likely be covered under homeowners insurance but NOT by renter's insurance? A)Your basement floods,
Snowcat [4.5K]
I would say that B), C) and D) would apply as events that would be covered by one's own homeowner insurance for sure. The flooding, as long as it wasn't one's own fault, ie it was the neighbour's fault or it ingressed from outside for example should be covered by the building insurance if it is a strata complex and if one has a deductible for flooding in case of one's fault, that will help too.

avanturin [10]

Answer:

Type A to produce 44 bags and Type B to produce 16 bags to maximize profit of $440

Explanation:

Let X be the number of bags for Type A and Y be the number of bags for Type  B

                                      Cutter              Finisher

Type A                              2X                   1X    =   $6X

Type B                  <u>             1Y                   2Y     =  $11Y</u>

                                        104                  76

2x+1y= 104

1x+2y=76

y= 104-2x

x+2(104-2x) = 76

x+ 208-4x = 76

132= 3x

x= 44 bags

y= 104-2(44)

y= 16 bags

Type A should produce 44 bags and Type B 16 bags to maximize profit

Maximum Profit = 6X + 11Y

                         = 6(44) + 11(16)

                        = $440
