Productivity measures the efficiency in the use of the company's resources in the production process. The term productivity is associated with reduced wastage, high quality, and a high input to output ratio.

Productivity is about how well a company uses inputs to generate output. It is measured by calculating the volume of output per hour or comparing the total output against the number of employees.

A company produces two products, A and B. The sales volume for A is at least 80% of the total salces for both A and B. However,

liberstina [14]

Answer:

i) Z = 20( 80 ) + 50(20 ) = $2600

ii) $3000

Explanation:

representing products A and B as x₁ and x₂

using the given data

Max ( z ) = 20x₁ + 50x₂ ( optimal product mix for optimal profit ) ---- ( 1 )

0.8 ( x₁ + x₂ ) ≥ 0

0.8x₁ + 0.8x₂ ≥ 0 ------------ ( 2 )

also x₁ ≤ 100 --- ( 3 ) considering the amount to be sold ( sales volume )

based on the availability of raw material

2x₁ + 4x₂ ≤ 240 ----- ( 4 )

resolve equations 2, 3, and 4 graphically

x₁ = 80 units , x₂ = 20 units

back to equation 1

Z = 20( 80 ) + 50(20 )

= 1600 + 1000 = $2600

ii) To increase the number of units of A produced

given that x₁ ≤ 100 and the actual optimal units produced = 80 units

2600 + 20(100-80)

= 2600 + 20(20) = 2600 + 400 = $3000

kifflom [539]

Answer:

Null : x = 0.56 ; Alternate : x < 0.56

t = (x - 0.56) / (s / √n) : If < tabulated t at α =0.05 , null hypothesis accepted

If t > tabulated t at α =0.05 , alternate hypothesis is accepted

Explanation:

Hypothesis Testing is used to test the statistical validity of a statement. Null Hypothesis is the neutral hypothesis, signifying equality to the tested value. Alternate Hypothesis is the contradictory hypothesis, signifying deviation from the tested value.

To test 'Proportion of people giving importance to civil rights in american political life' : Let these proportion be = x

Null Hypothesis (H0) : x = 56% = 0.56

Alternate Hypothesis (H1) : x < 56 % , i.e x < 0.56

't' statistic is calculated based on sample : ( x' - u ) / (s / √n)

where : x' = sample mean , u = population hypothesised mean = 0.56 , s = sample standard deviation , n = sample size

If this calculated 't' < tabulated 't' at significance level α =0.05 ; null hypothesis is accepted. It implies average people thinking as mentioned = 56 % (majority)

If this calculated 't' > tabulated 't' at significance level α =0.05 ; alternate hypothesis is accepted. It implies average people thinking as mentioned < 56% (not majority)

ehidna [41]

Answer:

a. Jason works harder than the other employees

Explanation:

In this scenario, the statement that would strengthen Jason's case would be that he works harder than the other employees. If Jason is able to provide proof of this then that would indicate that effort and work-efficiency is not the reason for Jason not receiving a wage increase. This would mean that the reason is either personal or superficial which are all labor-market discrimination. Therefore, if Jason can prove that he does actually work harder than the other employees it would drastically increase his chances of winning the court case against his employer.
