Answer: Yes

Explanation: In the above case, a quasi-contract was formed. This is when a bilateral contract is not in place but one party will enjoy the benefit of the activities of the other party and may be enriched  by it.  

A bilateral agreement is the exchange of a promise for another and in this case would have been, the promise that Dozier would pay for Paschall’s work. This was not established, however, Dozier will benefit from Paschall’s work unduly if he does not pay for the improvements. The law holds that he has to pay for Paschall’s work to prevent being unjustly enriched.

Suppose you inherited $275,000 and invested it at 8.25% per year. How much could you withdraw at the end of each of the next 20
Diano4ka-milaya [45]

Answer:

$28,533.5

Explanation:

Principal value (PV) = $275,000

Time = 20 years

Rate = 8.25%

Present Value = P ((1-(1+R)^-n) / r)

275,000 = P ((1- (1 + 0.0825)^-20) /.0825)

275,000 x .0825 = P (1-(1/1.0825)^20)

22687.5 = P ((1.0825^20 - 1) / (1.0825 ^20))

22687.50 = P (4.8816 - 1 / 4.8816)

22687.5 = P (3.886 / 4.8816)

22687.5 = p(0.7951)

P = 22687.5 / 0.7951

P = $28533.5

Mike has one hour to spend at the gym where he will jog, play handball and cycle. jogging uses 10 calories per minute, handball
slega [8]
Let
x = minutes used for jogging
y = minutes used for handball
z = minutes used for cycling

Th total time spent is 1 hour (60 minutes), therefore
x + y + z = 60

Because Mike jogs as long as he cycles, therefore
x = z
Therefore
2x + y = 60
or
y = 60 - 2x                 (1)

Jogging consumes 10 calories/min, handball consumes 9 calories/min and cycling consumes 12 calories/min.
The calories consumed in 60 minutes is 580, therefore
10 x + 9y + 12z = 580
Because x = z,
22x + 9y = 580          (2)

Substitute (1) into (2).
22x + 9(60 - 2x) = 580
22x + 540 - 18x = 580
4x = 40
x = 10
y = 60 - 2x = 40
z = x = 10

Answer:
10 minutes of jogging
40 minutes of handball
10 minutes of cycling.

How are permit departments helpful in conversion investigation efforts?
Lerok [7]

Answer:

Option B is the correct answer.

Explanation:

Business permits regulate the safety, structure, and appearance of the business community. They act as proof that a business follows specific laws and ordinances. Requirements differ by jurisdiction, and failure to comply often results in fines or even having the business shut down. Therefore, most businesses need a general business license to operate in a particular county or city.

Thus, the permit departments are helpful in conversion investigation efforts by identifying the nature and location of businesses, new leases, and recent constructions.

Option B is the correct answer.
