The shape of the graph is similar to the letter W; however, the region of interest will lie on the right of the origin, which means only the right half of the W(a negative number of cans cannot be produced). The profit produced will be maximized if the number of cans produced is greater than 3. The company will be at a loss if the number of cans produced is near 2.5. The break even situations are present if the company produces 2 or 3 cans.
Using the given formula T = LS
And given the time is 3 minutes (3 x 60 = 180 seconds)and the speed is 4-1/2 inches per second:
180 = L x 4-1/2
Solve for L by dividing both sides by 4-1/2:
L = 180 / 4-1/2
L = 40
The length should be 40 inches.
B. because it is 10 being subtracted from the fraction.
Amount invested in stocks = 46,000
Let "x" be the amount invested in bonds
The amount invested in stock is also = 3x - 8,000
We equate the two amounts above (Since both are related to stock investments), we get,
3x-8000 = 46000
3x = 54000
x =54000/3
x =18000
Amount that Laurie has invested in bonds = $18,000
