solution:
Terms of trade (TOT) = 1 pound green beans for 3 pound corn.
So, when Jake sells 72 pounds of corn, he buys (72 / 3) = 24 pounds of green beans, which is sold by Jane.
After specialization, Jane produces 80 pounds of green beans and sells 24 pounds out of it.
So, Jane consumes (80 - 24) = 56 pounds of green beans herself.
Also, after specialization, Jane produces only green beans and no corn, so her consumption of corn is equal to the quantity of corn sold by Jake, i.e. 72 pounds.
So, Jane consumes 56 pounds of green beans and 72 pounds of corn.
First you add the 1/4 and 3/4 together forgetting the /4 and adding the 1+3, that makes 4/4 which is a 1 then add that 1 to the 1 and 2 left over to get the answer
Answer:
2 over 6 as a fraction simplifies as 1 over three.
Step-by-step explanation:
If you are writing as a fraction, you put 2 over 6 and simplify. Your answer is 1 over 3
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
4b + 8 = 20
Subtract 8 from both sides
4b + 8 - 8 = 20 - 8
4b = 12
Now divide both sides by 4
4b/4 = 12/4
b = 3
Check:
LHS = 4b + 8
= 4*3 + 8
= 12 + 8
= 20 = RHS
For this case we have the following function:
<span>w (x) = - 5 (x-8) (x + 4)
</span><span>Rewriting we have:
</span><span>w (x) = - 5 (x ^ 2 + 4x - 8x - 32)
</span><span>w (x) = - 5x ^ 2 - 20x + 40x + 160
</span><span>w (x) = - 5x ^ 2 + 20x + 160
</span><span>Then, deriving we have:
</span><span>w '(x) = - 10x + 20
</span><span>We equal zero and clear x:
</span><span>0 = -10x + 20
</span><span>10x = 20
</span><span>x = 20/10
</span><span>x = 2 seconds
</span><span>Substituting values:
</span><span>w (2) = - 5 (2-8) (2 + 4)
</span><span>w (2) = - 5 (-6) (6)
</span><span>w (2) = 180 meters
</span>Answer:
The maximum height that the stone will reach is:
w (2) = 180 meters
