Let x = the # jujubes Sam had
he gave x/2 to jen
jen eats half of it  =    1/2(x/2) =    x/4
the remaining  x/4 he gave to kyle
kyle kept 8 and gave 10 to Kim
so
             x/4 - 8 = 10
             x/4 = 18
             x =72
thus    jen had 36 jujubes
jen eat    18  jujubes

A company produces and sells 211,600 boxes of t-shirts each year. Each production run has a fixed cost of $400 and an additional
Illusion [34]

Answer:x=46

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Company Produces and sells 211600 boxes of T-shirt each year

Fixed cost =$ 400

Additional cost = $ 3 per box

storage cost =$ 2

let x be the no of production run

therefore

Holding cost per year =holding\ cost\times average\ holding\ items=2\times \frac{211600}{2x}=\frac{211600}{x}

Yearly\ ordering\ cost=cost\ during\ each\ order\times number\ of\ order\ Placed\ per\ year

yearly ordering cost=400x+3\times \frac{211600}{x}

Total cost C(x)=\frac{211600}{x}+400x+3\times \frac{211600}{x}

differentiate C(x) w.r.t to x we get

\frac{\mathrm{d} C(x)}{\mathrm{d} x}=400-\frac{3\times 211600}{x^2}-\frac{1}{211600}

Put \frac{\mathrm{d} C(x)}{\mathrm{d} x}=0 to get max/min value

400-\frac{211600}{x^2}-\frac{3\times 211600}{x^2}=0

x^2=\frac{211600}{100}

x=\sqrt{2116}

x=46

therefore 46 runs must be performed

Six neighbors share 4 pies equally how much of a pie does each neighbor get
salantis [7]
Divide 4 by 6. Easier if you write it as a fraction: 4/6 This can be reduced to 2/3.   This means that each person gets 2/3 of a pie equally.

frosja888 [35]
Consider the function f ( x ) = 2479 ⋅ 0.9948x First compare this with f ( x ) po ( 1 + r ) ^ 2 We get po = 2479 And 1 + r = 0.9948 = 1 – 0.0052 r = -0.0052 < 0 Therefore, f is an exponential decay function with a decay rate of 0.0052 x 100 = 0.52%
