Answer and Explanation:

According to the scenario, computation of the given data are as follow:-

We assume that

X = No. of children

Y  = Standard type

Z = Executive type

So,

5x + 4y + 7z = 185.........(1)

3x + 2y + 5z = 115.........(2)

2x + 2y + 4z = 94

x + y + 2z = 47.........(3)

Equation (2) multiply by 2

6x + 4y + 10z = 230

From equation (1) to (2)

5x + 4y + 7z = 185

6x + 4y + 10z = 230

-x + 0 - 3z = -45

x + 3z = 45.......(4)

Equation (3) multiply by 4

4x + 4y + 8z = 188

From equation (1) to (3)

5x + 4y + 7z = 185

4x + 4y + 8z = 188

x + 0 - z = -3

- x + z = 3……(5)

From equation (5) to (4)

x + 3z = 45

-x + z = 3

4z = 48

Executive type = Z = 48 ÷ 4 = 12

Z = 12 in equation (5)

-x + 12 = 3

x = 9 (children type)

x=9, z=12 in equation 1

5x + 4y + 7z = 185

5 × 9 + 4 × y + 7 × 12=185

45 + 4 × y + 84 = 185

4y = 56 ÷ 4

Y= 14(Standard type)

Wehrs Corporation has received a request for a special order of 9,700 units of product K19 for $47.20 each. The normal selling p
Grace [21]

Answer:

See below.

Explanation:

We can compute the profitability of this special order by accounting for the incremental costs,

Sales (9700 * 47.20) = $457,840

Incremental Variable costs = (18 + 7.30 + 4.50 + 6.90) = $36.7/unit

The incremental variable costs include the $6.9 for modifications and does not include 7.4 which is a part of non incremental fixed costs.

Profits from this special order are as follows,

Sales                                                   457,840

Less:

Variable costs (36.7*9700)                355,990

Incremental Fixed costs                    46,700

Profits from this special order           55,150

Since the order has positive contribution and as it yields profits, it should be accepted.

Hope that helps.

Suppose, for example, that a sales manager is evaluating the performance of his employees. One employee does not get along well
bulgar [2K]

Answer:

Selective Perception

Explanation:

According to my research on studies conducted by various sociologists, I can say that based on the information provided within the question the manager is exercising Selective Perception. In the context of sociology, Selective Perspective is when an individual decides to not notice certain aspects or traits that cause emotional discomfort and instead focus on the ones that go with our beliefs. Which is what the manager is doing by focusing only on the fact that the salesperson is generating more contracts which is good for the company.

I hope this answered your question. If you have any more questions feel free to ask away at Brainly.

The trees in a peach orchard were arranged in a square array with $N$ columns and $N$ rows. To enlarge the orchard by one row an
Sav [38]

Answer:

225 trees

Explanation:

The owner previously had N x N trees, or N² trees.

Now there are N² + 29 trees, where N² + 29 is a complete square.

So we need to find out what complete square number + 29 equals another complete square number.

To have a clue what number N is, we must divide 29 by 2 = 14.5

So is 14² + 29 a complete square?

196 + 29 = 225

√225 = 15

So the new orchard has 225 trees.

The Federal Trade Commission suspects Billy Williams of unlawful trade activities and has obtained evidence, claimed to be proof
pantera1 [17]

Answer and Explanation:

An agency has the power to execute the law and to bring proceedings against violators. This may be accomplished with no significant constitutional limitations on how the agency is to conduct its investigation of infractions. A search warrant is never required for subject matter observed from a public place; therefore, aerial photography of Williams' place of business can be used by the FTC as proof of wrongdoing. The FTC may also demand the production of relevant papers and documents by Williams, since the constitutional guarantee against unreasonable searches and seizures does not afford much protection with regard to papers and records being investigated by an agency. Lastly, Williams has no right to a jury trial in an administrative hearing.

Country A has an absolute advantage over Country B in the production of both soybeans and corn. Explain a scenario in which both
Genrish500 [490]
This is a key idea with international trade.  This involves what is known as comparative advantage.
let's say country A can produce a ton of soybeans in 4 hours and a ton of corn in 2 hours.  While country B can produce a ton of soybeans in 15 hours and a ton of corn in 5 hours.  
Looking at this set up you can see that country A can produce both corn and soybeans faster, so they have an absolute advantage in both!
However what trade is based on is opportunity cost.  So if we think about how much corn country A has to give up to produce soybeans, they have to divert a total of 4 hours from corn to soy beans to produce one ton of soy beans.  That 4 hours could be used to produce 2 tons of corn (since 2 hours for 1 ton and we're taking away 4 hours!).  So opportunity cost of soybeans in country A is 2 corn.
In country B they would need a total of 15 hours to produce one extra ton of soybeans, but those 15 hours could instead be used to produce 3 tons of corn (5 hours per ton and we're stealing 15 total hours).  That means country B's opportunity cost is 3 corn.
Since A has a lower opportunity cost in produce soybeans they will specialize and B will specialize in corn.
