Answer:

.035≤x≤0.045

Explanation:

Let x= the actual measurement.

|actual − ideal|≤ tolerance

Use an absolute value inequality to express this situation.

|x−0.04|≤0.005

Rewrite as a compound inequality.

−0.005≤x−0.04≤0.005

Solve the inequality.

0.035≤x≤0.045

Answer the question. The tortillas will have a maximum thickness of 0.045 inch and a minimum thickness of 0.035 inch.

The constant monthly withdrawal amount can be calculated by using PMT  function in excel as in =PMT(rate,nper,pv) where rate = 7% = 0.07/12 (Monthly rate), nper = 20 years = 20*12 = 240 months and pv = 300,000

Constant monthly withdrawal amount  =PMT(0.07/12,240,300000)

Constant monthly withdrawal amount = $2,325.90

Constant monthly withdrawal amount = $2,326 (Option C)

I looked up the question, since this one is incomplete. I've attached an image of the correct chart. Elvis' marginal benefit of the fourth sandwich is his total benefit of eating 4 sandwich minus his total benefit from eating 3 sandwiches.

Looking at the chart, we see that this gives us 81-75 = 6. 

Therefore, the Marginal Benefit of a fourth sandwich is 6.

Explanation:

Production Unit = $135,000 + $18,000 - $14,000 = $139,000

Labor hours per unit = 30 mins = 0.5 hours

Total Labor Hours = $139,000 x 0.5 = 69,500 hours

Variable Overhead 69,500 x 5 = $347,500

Total Overhead Cost = $347, 500 + $56,500 = $404,000
