Product A requires 5 machine hours per unit to be produced, Product B requires only 3 machine hours per unit, and the company's

productive capacity is limited to 240,000 machine hours. Product A sells for $16 per unit and has variable costs of $6 per unit. Product B sells for $12 per unit and has variable costs of $5 per unit. Assuming the company can sell as many units of either product as it produces, the company should:
Produce only Product A.
Produce only Product B.
Produce equal amounts of A and B.
Produce A and B in the ratio of 62.5% A to 37.5% B.
Produce A and B in the ratio of 40% A and 60% B.

Answer:

  Produce only Product B.

Step-by-step explanation:

The contribution margin per machine hour for product A is ...

  ($16 -$6)/(5 hour) = $2 per hour

The contribution margin per machine hour for product B is ...

  ($12 -$5)/(3 hour) ≈ $2.33 per hour

The company should produce the maximum possible number of the product that contributes the most per machine hour: Product B.

$98.30=5.1a+11.6
98.30-11.6=5a+11.6-11.6
86.7=5a
86.7/5=5a/5

HEY CAN ANYONE HELP ME!
nataly862011 [7]

Answer:

Given: In triangle ABC and triangle DBE where DE is parallel to AC.

In ΔABC and ΔDBE

DE || AC   [Given]

As we know, a line that cuts across two or more parallel lines.  In the given figure, the line AB is a transversal.

Line segment  AB is transversal that intersects two parallel lines.  [Conclusion from statement 1.]

Corresponding angles theorem: two parallel lines are cut by a transversal, then the  corresponding angles are congruent.

then;

\angle BDE \cong \angle BAC  and

\angle BEC \cong \angle BCA

Reflexive property of equality states that if angles in geometric figures can be congruent to themselves.

by Reflexive property of equality:

\angle B \cong \angle B  

By AAA (Angle Angle Angle) similarity postulates states that all three pairs of corresponding angles are the same then, the triangles are similar

therefore, by AAA similarity postulates theorem

\triangle ABC \sim \triangle DBE

Similar triangles are triangles with equal corresponding angles and proportionate side.

then, we have;

\frac{BD}{BA}                  [By definition of similar triangles]

therefore, the missing statement and the reasons are

Statement                                                                   Reason

3.\angle BDE \cong \angle BAC      Corresponding angles theorem

and  \angle BEC \cong \angle BCA        

5. \triangle ABC \sim \triangle DBE   AAA similarity postulates    

6. BD over BA                                                    Definition of similar triangle

Is the circumference of all circles about 3 times greater than their diameters. and why?
stira [4]

Answer:

<h2>Yes the circumference is about times greater than their diameters</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

We will approach this problem by doing a check

Say the diameter of a circle is 4 cm

Hence the radius is 3 cm

We know that the circumference is C=2\pi r

C=2*3.142*2= 12.57cm

The circumference is about 3 time bigger than the diameter

Let us try another case say the diameter is 6 cm

The radius is 3 cm

C=2*3.142*3= 18.85cm
