Answer:

x = -3, y = 7.

Step-by-step explanation:

 x + 3y = 18  

-3x -  12y = -75

Multiply the first equation by 3:

3x + 9y = 54

Adding the last 2 equations to eliminate x:

-3y = -21

y = 7.

Substitute y = 7 into the first equation:

x + 3(7) = 18

x + 21 = 18

x = 18 - 21

x = -3.

ser-zykov [4K]

Answer:

the clock will represent 4.5 billion years as 2.67 hours

Step-by-step explanation:

Data provided in the question:

Total time of history of Earth = 4.5 billion years

Representation of total time of history of Earth on clock = 12 hours

Therefore,

4.5 billion years = 12 hours

or

⇒ 1 billion year = \frac{\textup{12 hours}}{\textup{4.5}}

or

⇒ 1 billion year = 2.67 hours

Hence,

the clock will represent 4.5 billion years as 2.67 hours

Delta Company produces a single product. The cost of producing and selling a single unit of this product at the company's normal
Mariana [72]

Answer:

The company should accept the special offer because it increases income by $23,400.

Step-by-step explanation:

Giving the following information:

Variable costs:

Direct materials $1.50

Direct labor $3.00

Variable manufacturing overhead $0.50

Variable selling and administrative expenses $1.30

Total variable cost= $6.3

An order has been received from a mail-order house for 2,000 units at a special price of $18.00 per unit.

<u>Because it is a special offer and there is unused capacity, we will not take into account the fixed costs:</u>

Effect on income= number of units*unitary contribution margin

Effect on income= 2,000* (18 - 6.3)

Effect on income= $23,400 increase

The company should accept the special offer because it increases income by $23,400.
