Truck A costs $600 more that Truck B. However, it burns 0.06 gallon/mile compared to 0.07 gallon/mile for truck B. Both trucks h

ave a useful life of 10 years. Salvage value of Truck B is $200 less than Truck A’s. The cost of fuel is $2.25/gallon. If the value of $ remains the same in 10 years, what is the number of miles driven per year (X) beyond which Truck A is a better option than Truck B?

Answer:

  1,778

Step-by-step explanation:

Let C and S represent the cost and salvage value of Truck B, respectively. Let X represent the number of miles per year that answers the question.

Truck A's cost for 10 years is ...

  A = C+600 +(0.06)(2.25)(10X) -(S+200)

Truck B's cost for 10 years is ...

  B = C +(0.07)(2.25)(10X) -S

We want to find X such that Truck A's cost is lower, so ...

  C -S +1.35X +400 < C -S +1.575X

  400 < 0.225X

  1777 7/9 < X

1778 miles driven per year (or more) makes Truck A a better option.

Matthew manages the packaging department of his company. Yesterday, the department operated for only 4 hours due to a company pi
yKpoI14uk [10]

Alright, lets get started.

If Matthew wants to complete packages at an average rate of at least 39 packages per hour.

And they worked 4 hrs only due to picnic, yesterday, it means they have to make 39*4 = 156 packages.

But they made only 112 packages means they are short of 156 - 112 = 44 packages.

Suppose they are working today t hrs, and his department will complete 43 packages per hour today.

It means they are going to make 43 t packages today.

This 43 t packages includes those 44 too , which they are short of yesterday due to picnic.

So, average will be

\frac{43 t - 44}{t} = 39 (39 average given in question)

Cross multiplying

39 t = 43 t - 44

Adding 44 in both sides

39 t + 44 = 43 t - 44 + 44

43 t = 39 t + 44

Subtracting 39 t in both sides

43 t - 39 t = 39 t + 44 - 39 t

4t = 44

Dividing 4 in both sides

t = 11 hrs

Hence they have to woth 11 hrs today : Answer

Hope it will help :)

(4 tens 3 ones) x 10
adoni [48]

To solve this problem, we must first convert all of the numbers represented by words into their numeral equivalents so we can simplify. To do this, we must remember that the ones place is the first to the left of the decimal point, and the tens place is one place farther to the left. If we have 4 tens and 3 ones, this is the same as 43 (we put the digit 4 in the tens place and the digit 3 in the ones place). If we replace our words with our new numerical value, we get:

43 * 10

To solve this, we just multiply these two numbers together, which gives us:

430

Therefore, your answer is 430.

Hope this helps!
