A manufacturer shipped units of a certain product to two locations. The equation above shows the total shipping cost TTT, in dol
andriy [413]

Answer: 2,200 units.

Explanation:

The complete exercise is:

T = 5c + 12 f

A manufacturer shipped units of a certain product to two locations. The equation above shows the total shipping cost T, in dollars, for shipping c units to the closer location and shipping f units to the farther location. If the total shipping cost was $47,000 and 3,000 units were shipped to the farther location, how many units were shipped to the closer location?

Given the following equation:

T = 5c + 12 f

You know that "T" is the total shipping cost (in dollars), "c" is the number of units shipped to the closer location and "f" is the number of units shipped to the farther location.

Based on the information given in the exercise, you can identify that, in this case:

T=47,000\\\\f=3,000

Then, knowing those values, you need to substitute them into the given equation:

47,000 = 5c + 12(3,000)

And finally, you must solve for "c" in order to calculate the number of units that  were shipped to the closer location.

You get that this is:

47,000 = 5c + 12(3,000)\\\\47,000-36,000 = 5c\\\\11,000=5c\\\\\frac{11,000}{5}\\\\c=2,200

madreJ [45]

Answer:

A. National income must equal domestic product.

True.

National Income is the total value of goods and services produced in a country during a financial period. It is total income from a country's economic activities.

Domestic product is monetary value of all economic activities of a country during a period.

C + I + G + (X - IM) = DI + NT.

The statement given is true. Disposable income equals the saving plus consumption. The excess of disposable income which is not consumed is saved.  Sum of saving and consumption must equal Disposable income in an economy.

Choose all the scenarios below that would cause a decrease in the supply of labor in the agricultural industry.
Alika [10]

Answer:

  • b. As the population in the United States ages, fewer workers have the physical ability to work in the industry.
  • d. Due to global warming, working conditions on farms have become undesirable for more and more people.
  • e. The adoption of strict immigration laws reduces the number of legal and illegal immigrants in the United States.
  • h. New machinery is replacing workers in the harvesting of crops.

Explanation:

With workers getting older and being unable to be as productive as they used to be, they will have to drop out of industries that require physical strength including farming. This will therefore reduce people working in agriculture.

With global warming having made working in the fields much more harsh, people are avoiding careers that would keep them outdoors including farming which has led to a drop in the labor supply for agriculture.

A significant portion of workers in agriculture are immigrants so when immigration laws limit the number of immigrants coming in, labor supply in agriculture will reduce.

New machinery reduces the need for workers in agriculture so the more they are bought, the less workers are needed. This will therefore directly reduce the number of people working in agriculture.
