Answer:

TO find out how much each elephant weighs you simply have to do 11, 894 divided by 6. Since the answer is a decimal (1982.33333333), I would just round it to the nearest tenth as it dosent specify where we have to round it to. SO, 1982.33333333 rounded to the nearest tenth is 1982.3

Step-by-step explanation:

The retained earnings for the year is $205,000

The firm paid out $185,000 in cash dividend

It has total equity of$4.90 million

100,000 common shares are outstanding

Therefore the earnings per share van be calculated as follows

= 205,000+185,000/100,000

= 390,000/100,000

= 3.9

Hence the earnings per share is $3.9

Katarina [22]

Answer:

t-shirts: 2790

profit: $12209

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the function:

p(x) = -x³ + 4x² + x

we want to maximize it.

The following criteria must be satisfied at the maximum:

dp/dx = 0

d²p/dx² < 0

dp/dx = -3x² + 8x + 1 = 0

Using quadratic formula:

$x = \frac{-b \pm \sqrt{b^2 -4(a)(c)}}{2(a)}$

$x = \frac{-8 \pm \sqrt{8^2 -4(-3)(1)}}{2(-3)}$

$x = \frac{-8 \pm 8.72}{-6}$

$x_1 = \frac{-8 + 8.72}{-6}$

$x_1 = -0.12$

$x_2 = \frac{-8 - 8.72}{-6}$

$x_2 = 2.79$

d²p/dx² = -6x + 8

d²p/dx² at x = -0.12: -6(-0.12) + 8 = 8.72 > 0

d²p/dx² at x = 2.79: -6(2.79) + 8 = -8.74 < 0

Then, he should prints 2.79 thousands, that is, 2790 t-shirts to make maximum profits.

Replacing into profit equation:

p(x) = -(2.79)³ + 4(2.79)² + 2.79 = 12.209

that is, $12209
