The area of a rectangle is pool is (15x-9) square units. Factor 15x-9 to find possible dimensions of the pool

Darya [45]

This is the concept of algebra, given that the area of a rectangular pool is (15x-9), the possible dimensions of the pool by factoring will be:
Area=length×width
Area=(15x-9)
factoring the above we get:
Area=3(5x-3)
therefore the possible dimension will be:
length=5x units
width=3 units

Consider two competing firms in a declining industry that cannot support both firms profitably. Each firm has three possible cho

yaroslaw [1]

Answer:

a) attached below

b) ( T,T )

c) The Pure-strategy Nash equilibria are : ( N,E ) and ( E,N )

d) The mixed-strategy Nash equilibrium for Firm 1 = ( 1/3 , 0, 2/3 )

while the mixed -strategy Nash equilibrium for Firm 2 = ( 1/3 , 0, 2/3 )

Step-by-step explanation:

A) write down the game in matrix form

let: E = exit at the industry immediately

T = exit at the end of the quarter

N = exit at the end of the next quarter

matrix is attached below

B) weakly dominated strategies is ( T,T )

C) Find the pure-strategy Nash equilibria

The Pure-strategy Nash equilibria are : ( N,E ) and ( E,N )

D ) Find the unique mixed-strategy Nash equilibrium

The mixed-strategy Nash equilibrium for Firm 1 = ( 1/3 , 0, 2/3 )

while the mixed -strategy Nash equilibrium for Firm 2 = ( 1/3 , 0, 2/3 ) since T is weakly dominated then the mixed strategy will be NE

Assume that P is the probability of firm 1 exiting immediately ( E )

and q is the probability of firm 1 staying till next term ( N ) ∴ q = 1 - P.

hence the expected utility of firm 2 choosing E = 0 while the expected utility of choosing N = 4p - 2q .

The expected utilities of E and N to firm 2 =

0 = 4p - 2q = 4p - 2 ( 1-p) = 6p -2 which means : p = 1/3 , q = 2/3

The number of students in a school was 860 last year. This year there are 790. What is the percentage decrease in the number of

Arada [10]

Percent decrease=decrease/original times 100

decreas=860-790=70
original=860

percent decrease=70/860 times 100
percent decrease=0.0813953 times 100
percent decrease=8.13953
about 8%

The Best Company produces two commercial products : blenders and mixers. Both products require a two step production process inv

deff fn [24]

Answer:

Maximum profit is $87 when 3 blenders and 11 mixers are produced.

Step-by-step explanation:

let blender is represented by $x_{1}$ and and mixer by $x_{2}$ .

total time to deliver parts = 24 hrs

total time to assemble = 30 hrs

time taken by each blender to deliver parts = 1 hr

time taken by each mixer to deliver parts = 2 hr

time taken by blenders in final assembling= 2 hr

time taken by mixers in final assembling = 3 hr

Each blender produced nets the firm= $7

Each mixer produced nets the firm= $6

Using this all data linear system of equation will be:

$x_{1} + 2x_{2} =24 ----- (1)\\2x_{1} + 2x_{2} = 30 ----- (2)\\$

profit function:

$z= 7x_{1} +6x_{2} --- (3)$

$from (1)\\x_{1} = 0 \implies x_{2}= 12\\x_{2}= 0 \implies x_{1}= 24\\$

Coordinate points obtained from (1) are (0,12) and (24,0)

$from (2)\\x_{1}=0 \implies x_{2}=10\\x_{2}=0 \implies x_{1}=15\\$

Coordinate points obtained from (2) are (0,10) and (15,0)

plotting these on graph

points lying in feasible region are:

A(0,0)

B(0,10)

C(3,11)

D(12,0)

substituting these points in (3) to find the maximum profit:

for A (0,0)

z = 0

for B (0,10)

z = 60

for C (3,11)

z = 87

for D (12,0)

z=84

So maximum profit is $87 when 3 blenders and 11 mixers are produced.
