X = number of loads
company A : 20x + 8
company B : 24x + 4
20x + 8 = 20(5) + 8 = 100 + 8 = 108 (company A)
24x + 4 = 24(5) + 4 = 120 + 4 = 124 (company B)
company A charges less
20x + 8 = 20(9) + 8 = 188
24x + 4 = 24(9) + 4 = 220
220 - 188 = $ 32 bucks is saved by using company A
B is the answer becuase it’s 35 and that should be correct
Divide Total time into two Time Periods. A regular Demand and a High Demand Time Period. Since 75% of the 1,200 calls occur between 9:30 am and 3:30 pm. We multiply .75 x 1,200 to get 900. We get an average of 900 calls every day between the hours of 9:30 am and 3:30 pm – Our net time for this time period is 6 hours.
Therefore, 6 Hours/900 becomes our quotient
Again, since the denominator is larger we invert it to 900 calls/6 Hours
To get a demand of 150 calls per hour.
We need to be able to handle 150 calls per hour.
So how Many Call Representatives are needed?
Again, our historical data tells us that each person can handle 10 calls an hour.
Therefore 150 calls per hour /10 Minutes = 15 Customer Service Representatives are needed during Peak Time!
Now, Subtract the Peak Hours from the 21 Hours Net Time Per day, gives us 15 Non-Peak hours we have to staff.
$5 x 20 = 100
$7.50 x 19 = 142.5
100 + 142.5 = 242.5
