Joe lost his part-time job, which reduced the net family income by 20%. His wife Janice decided to work overtime to compensate for the lost income. Other things being equal, by what percentage must her net salary increase in order to arrive at the same net family income as they had before Joe lost his job?​

Answers

Answer 1

The percentage by which Janice's net salary must be increased in order to arrive at the same net family income as they had before Joe lost his job is 25%.

What are Percentages?

A percentage is a way to describe a part of a whole. such as the fraction ¼ can be described as 0.25 which is equal to 25%.

To convert a fraction to a percentage, convert the fraction to decimal form and then multiply by 100 with the '%' symbol.

Let the salary of Joe be represented by x, while the salary of Janice is represented by y.

Since the sum of the salary of Joe and Janice is the net income of the family. Therefore, the net salary when Joe had a job will be,

x + y₁ = 100%

Now, it is known that Joe lost his job, which reduced the net family income by 20%.  Therefore, the net salary now will be only 80% which will be equal to the salary of Janice. Thus, we can write,

y₁ = 80%

Further, Janice decided to work overtime to compensate for the lost income. Therefore, we can write,

y₂ = 100%

Furthermore, the percentage change in salary of Janice can be written as,

Percentage Change = [(100% - 80%)/80% ] × 100%

                                  = 20/80  × 100%

                                  = 25%

Hence, the percentage by which Janice's net salary must be increased in order to arrive at the same net family income as they had before Joe lost his job is 25%.

The total cost of producing a type of tractor is given by C(x)=11000−20x+0.02x2, where x is the number of tractors produced. How many tractors should be produced to incur minimum cost?

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

You need to complete the square.

C(x) = 0.02(x^2 - 1000x  ...)  + 11000

C(x) = 0.02 (x^2 - 1000x + 500^2) + 11000 - 5000

C(x) = 0.02 (x^2 - 1000x + 500^2) + 6000

C(x) = 0.02(x - 500)^2 + 6000

Now if you look at the answer you will find that the square is completed. That means that number of tractors you could produce is 500 at a cost of 6000

There is a flow to this question that you may have trouble understanding.

First of all the 500^2. That comes from taking 1/2 of 1000 and squaring it. That's what you need to complete the square.

Bur that is not what you have adding into the equation. Remember that there is a 0.02 in front of the brackets.

500^2 = 250000

0.02 * 250000 = 5000

So that number must be subtracted to make the square = 0. When you remove the brackets, you should get 11000 all in all.

So what you have outside the brackets is 11000 - 5000 = 6000

The rest is just standard for completing the square.

6(2x + 4) = 3(4x + 8)
Please answer this!

Answers

Answer:

Infinitely many solutions

Step-by-step explanation:

6(2x + 4) = 3(4x + 8)

Distribute the 6

6 * 2x = 12x and 6 * 4 = 24

12x + 24 = 3(4x+8)

Distribute the 3

3 * 4x = 12x and 3 * 4 = 24

12x + 24 = 12x + 24

On both sides of the equal sign we have 12x + 24.

When both sides are equal there are infinitely many solutions.

What is the unmet demand at equilibrium?

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

I'll use y for quantity and x for price [love my x and y] and rewrite the demand and supply functions:

Demand:    y=1204−11x

Supply:       y = -3 + 6x

==

We want to know the equilibrium price and quantity.  The quantities purchased and sold would be equal to the quantities supplied:

  1204−11x = -3 + 6x

-17x = - 1207

 x = 71  The price of a widget is 71 units ($, €,£,¥, etc.) at equilibrium

A price of 71 would lead to a demand and supply of:

y = 1204−11x

y = 1204−11(71)

y = 423 Widgets

We can also plot this to find the point (71,423).  See the attachment.

At this point, I'm uncertain how to answer the "producer surplus" and "unmet demand" at equilibrium.  This is what I did, so please judge if it is correct.

The demand line, y=1204−11x, tells us that if the price were 0, the demand would be 1204, which I'll assume in the maximum, since it is stipulated that x > 0  (I imagine it may no longer be a straight line when the price goes into negative territory.  I'd be the first in line to accept a widget and $5 if they were priced at -$5).

At equilibrium, therefore, we would still have an unmet demand of (1204 - 423) or 781 widgets that customers wanted, but wouldn't pay the price.

It seems to me that this would also be the unmet demand:  Product that could have been sold, but wasn't, due to the price.  I'm unsure, however.

102 degrees below horizontal

Step-by-step explanation:

if the first angle is 78 degrees, the angle on the other side of the line is 102 degrees because a straight line is 180 degrees, and a box would have a total of 360 degrees in it

because the same line passes through both horizontal lines, the angle 3 is equal to the opposite angle to the 78

180-78 = 102

another way to look at it is that the 78 degrees is the same angle directly above angle 3 because the horizontal lines are parallel, and if it is 78 degrees, that makes the angle below it (angle 3) 102 degrees since a straight line must add to 180 degrees

Write five other iterated integrals that are equal to the given iterated integral. 8 0 x2 0 y f(x, y, z) dz dy dx 0

An iterated integral is the outcome of taking integrals toward a function of more than one variable in such a way that part of the variables is treated as constants for each of the integrals.

From the given parameters, we are to write out five iterations for a triple integral;

[tex]\mathbf{\int ^8_0\ \int^{x^2}_{0} \ \int^y_0 \ \ f(x, y, z) \ dz dy dx }[/tex]

where;

the region is bounded by 0 ≤ z ≤ y, 0 ≤ y ≤ x², 0 ≤ x ≤ 8.

Thus, since x, y, z are functions of at least one variable, we can have the following iterations:
