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.

  ($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.

c=²=a²+b²
where c is the diagonal of the wall
a=12 ft
b=6 ft
c²=12²+6²-----> c²=144+36-----< c²=180-----> c=√180------> c=6√5 ft

This statement describes a range of Micah's salary.

The range is a number that describes the distance from the beginning of something to the end of something.

In this scenario the beginning would be the beginning salary, in the end salary would be where you stop at end at after adding $876.

$1793(starting) + $876 = $2669
