Answer:

80g

Step-by-step explanation:

Here's why:

SO you have 2:3 ratio which means the ratio for grams of butter/grams of flour has to be 2:3.

So we set up the following equation:

2/3 = 640/x (solve for x)

x= 960g

960g is what you should have to get to ratio, but the question is asking how much more you need from the initial given flour.

So you need  (suppose x is the grams of flour you need)

x+880g = 960g (solve for x)

x=80g

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

Nolan used the following procedure to find an estimate for StartRoot 18 EndRoot.
stiks02 [169]

Answer:

Nolan correctly identified the square  numbers before and after 18.

The square roots of them are 4 and 5.

Clearly, square root of 18 should lie between 4 and 5 only.

He, then carefully squared 4.1, 4.2, 4.3 etc. and identified that 4.3 squared is nearer to 18.

Since, Nolan is finding estimated square root, his steps are cool and he didn't make any error.

Andrew invested $20,000 in mutual funds and received a sum of $35,000 at the end of the investment period. Calculate the ROI.
mario62 [17]
Answer: $15,000

As $35,000-$20,000=$15,000.

That's basically the profit he had made, or the return on his investment (ROI).

As he already had $20,000, he had "only" made $15,000.
