Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The difference would be that for (-5)^2 you would have to do anything that was in the parenthesis first and then square it up, but for -5^2 you would just square it up immediately. In this specific case both outcomes would be the same result and the answer would be 25 since a negative times a negative is a positive. It would be the same because there is nothing in the parenthesis.

The difference is that with the parentheses the negative sign is removed but the one without the parentheses will stay negative.

The reason for this is because -5^2 without the parentheses is the same as 0-5^2 which is -25

But with the parentheses the actual number is negative because (0-5)^2 is the same as (-5)^2 and a negative square is a positive

A box was 3/4 full of marbles. The box fell on the floor. Thirty marbles fell out. This was 20% of the marbles in the box. How m

Hunter-Best [27]

Answer: -5.7

Step-by-step explanation:

3/4- 30= -29.25 and that was only 20% of the box that was dropped out of the box. -29.25 of 20% equals -5.85. 3/4 of 20% equals 0.15 subtract the 2 decimals and you will get -5.7

The Versatech Corporation has decided to produce three new products. Five branch plants now have excess production capacity. The

RSB [31]

Answer: provided in the explanation segment

Step-by-step explanation:

here i will give a step by step analysis of the question;

A: Optimization Formulation

given Xij = X no. of units of product i manufactured in Plant j, where i = 1,2,3 and J = 1,2,3,4,5

Objective function: Minimize manufacturing cost (Z)

Z = 31 X11 + 29 X12 + 32X13 + 28X14 + 29 X15 + 45 X21 + 41 X22 + 46X23 + 42X24 + 43 X25 + 38 X31 + 35 X32 + 40X33

s.t

X11 + X12 + X13 + X14 + X15 = 600

X21 + X22 + X23 + X24 + X25 = 1000

X31 + X32 + X33 = 800

X11 + X21 + X31 <= 400

X12 + X22 + X32 <= 600

X13 + X23 + X33 <= 400

X14 + X24 <= 600

X15 + X25 <= 1000

Xij >= 0 for all i,j

Yes, we can formulate this problem as a transportation problem because in transportation problem we need to match the supply of source to demand of destination. Here we can assume that the supply of source is nothing but the manufacturing capability of plant and demand of destination is similar to the demand of products.

cheers i hope this helps!!

Amelia is going to buy some cards for her friends.Each card costs $3.She finds a coupon for $2 off the entire purchase.Write an

dalvyx [7]

y = ( 3 * x ) - 2.

This is because the card costs for 3 $ and should be multiplied by the number of total cards she buys in that particular day. So 3 * x.

Now as she has got a 2$ off coupon, whatever the total is she gets 2 dollars off on that price. So we will subtract 2 at that time. FInally all this summed up would be equal to y.
