\dfrac{1}{p}+\dfrac{1}{q}=\dfrac{1}{f}\qquad|\text{subtract}\ \dfrac{1}{q}\ \text{from both sides}\\\\\dfrac{1}{p}=\dfrac{1}{f}-\dfrac{1}{q}\\\\\dfrac{1}{p}=\dfrac{(1)(q)}{(f)(q)}-\dfrac{(1)(f)}{(f)(q)}\\\\\dfrac{1}{p}=\dfrac{q-f}{fq}\Rightarrow\dfrac{p}{1}=\dfrac{fq}{q-f}\\\\\boxed{p=\dfrac{fq}{q-f}}

Miscate owns Cool Groove, a company that sells and installs automobile sound systems. Cool Grove charges $185 for each small sys
goldenfox [79]

1. One way to work mixture problems like this is to consider the effect of all sales being for the smaller amount. In that case, revenue would be 135*$185 = $24,975. That is $2250 less than actual revenue. For each large system sold instead of a small one, there is $50 in additional revenue. The $2250 in additional revenue requires that 2250/50 = 45 large systems be sold.

2. We know that Rafael's overtime pay is $912.60 - 40*$14.40 = 336.60. None of the offered answers computes to the correct pay amount.  

If you made a typo and the correct total pay is $921.60, then an overtime rate of 1.5 times base pay will require 16 hours of overtime; an overtime rate of 3 times base pay will only require 8 hours of overtime. Overtime hours = $921.60/$14.40 = 64 equivalent hours. Subtracting 40 hours of straight time, the resulting product of hours and multiplier will be 64 - 40 = 24. That is it could be 16 hours at 1.5 times, or 8 hours at 3 times.

3. One of the problems here is to figure the number of hours in a month. If you consider there to be 4 1/3 weeks in a month, Robin needs to work $3280/(13/3)/14.90 = 50.80 equivalent hours. The 10.80 equivalent overtime hours will be 10.80/1.5 = 7.20 clock hours, closest to 7.25 among the answers. (Other choices for weeks/hours in a month give answers that match none of those offered.)

4. $750/$19.50 = 38.46, closest to 38.50 among the answers offered.

Let φ(x, y) = arctan (y/x) .
Alexandra [31]

Answer:

a) \large F(x,y)=(-\frac{y}{x^2+y^2},\frac{x}{x^2+y^2})

b) \large \mathbb{R}^2-\{(0,0)\}

c) the points of the form (x, -x) for x≠0

Step-by-step explanation:

a)

If φ(x, y) = arctan (y/x), the vector field F = ∇φ would be

\large F(x,y)=(\frac{\partial \phi}{\partial x},\frac{\partial \phi}{\partial y})

On one hand we have,

\large \frac{\partial \phi}{\partial x}=\frac{\partial arctan(y/x)}{\partial x}=\frac{-y/x^2}{1+(y/x)^2}=-\frac{y/x^2}{1+y^2/x^2}=\\\\=-\frac{y/x^2}{(x^2+y^2)/x^2}=-\frac{y}{x^2+y^2}

On the other hand,

\large \frac{\partial \phi}{\partial y}=\frac{\partial arctan(y/x)}{\partial y}=\frac{1/x}{1+(y/x)^2}=\frac{1/x}{1+y^2/x^2}=\\\\=\frac{1/x}{(x^2+y^2)/x^2}=\frac{x}{x^2+y^2}

So

\large F(x,y)=(-\frac{y}{x^2+y^2},\frac{x}{x^2+y^2})

b)

The domain of definition of F is  

\large \mathbb{R}^2-\{(0,0)\}

i.e., all the plane X-Y except the (0,0)

c)

Here we want to find all the points such that

\large (-\frac{y}{x^2+y^2},\frac{x}{x^2+y^2})=(k,k)

where k is a real number other than 0.

But this means

\large -\frac{y}{x^2+y^2}=\frac{x}{x^2+y^2}\Rightarrow y=-x

So, all the points in the line y = -x except (0,0) are parallel to the vector field F, that is, the points (x, -x) with x≠ 0

Borland, Inc., has a profit margin of 5.6 percent on sales of $13.6 million. If the firm has debt of $6.4 million and total asse
aniked [119]

Answer:

ROA = 7.77 percent

Step-by-step explanation:

Borland, Inc., has a profit margin of 5.6 percent on sales of $13.6 million

Thus, profit = 5.6% of  $13.6 million

profit = 5.6 / 100 *  $13.6 million = $0.7616 million

Profit is same as net income

Formula for ROA (return on asset) = net income/ total asset

total asset as given = $9.8 million

Thus, ROA = $0.7616/ $9.8 = 0.0777

ROA in percentage = 0.0777*100 = 7.77

Thus, ROA is 7.77 percent .

Find the interest earned and the future value of an annuity with quarterly payments of $600 for 8 years into an account that pay
iVinArrow [24]

Answer:

interest earned= 292.878

the future value of an annuity= 892.878

Step-by-step explanation:

Given Data:

Interest rate= 5%

time,t = 8 years

Quarterly payment, P= 600

n= 4 as quarterly

At the end of 8 years, final investment A= ?

As per the interest formula

A= P(1+r/n)^nt

= 600(1+0.05/4)^32

= 892.878

Interest earned = A-P

                          = 892.878-600

                          = 292.878 !

Below is a probability distribution for the number of failures in an elementary statistics course. X 0 1 2 3 4 P(X=x) 0.41 0.18
faust18 [17]

Answer:

a) P(X=2)= 0.29

b) P(X<2)= 0.59

c) P(X≤2)= 0.88

d) P(X>2)= 0.12

e) P(X=1 or X=4)= 0.24

f) P(1≤X≤4)= 0.59

Step-by-step explanation:

a) P(X=2)= 1 - P(X=0) - P(X=1) - P(X=3) - P(X=4)= 1-0.41-0.18-0.06-0.06= 0.29

b) P(X<2)= P(X=0) + P(X=1)= 0.41 + 0.18 = 0.59

c) P(X≤2)= P(X=0) + P(X=1) + P(X=2)=0.41+0.18+0.29= 0.88

d) P(X>2)=P(X=3) + P(X=4)=0.06+0.06= 0.12

e) P(X=1 or X=4)=P(X=1 ∪ X=4) = P(X=1) + P(X=4)=0.18+0.06= 0.24

f) P(1≤X≤4)=P(X=1) + P(X=2) + P(X=3) + P(X=4)=0.18+0.29+0.06+0.06= 0.59
