The Plastic Flowerpots Company has two manufacturing departments, molding and packaging. At the beginning of the month, the molding department has 2,000 units in inventory, 70% complete as to materials. During the month, the molding department started 18,000 units. At the end of the month, the molding department had 3,000 units in ending inventory, 80% complete as to materials. Units completed in the molding department are transferred into the packaging department. Cost information for the molding department for the month follows: Beginning work in process inventory (direct materials) $ 1,200 Direct materials added during the month 27,900 Using the weighted-average method, compute the molding department's (a) equivalent units of production for materials and (b) cost per equivalent unit of production for materials for the month. (Round "cost per equivalent unit of production" to 2 decimal places.)

Equivalent Units                                                        19400                  

The equivalent units under the weighted average method are found by either adding the BWIP and units started or the EWIP and the units completed.

Beginning work in process inventory (direct materials) $ 1,200

Direct materials added during the month 27,900

Total Materials Cost  $ 28,200

b) Cost per equivalent unit of production for materials =  $ 28,200/ 19400=

$ 1.4536 per unit

What 3different ways to make 115 using hundreds, tens, and ones blocks?

Answers

 Hundreds          tens           ones
 1.     1                 1                   5
 2.     0                 11                5
3.      0                   0                 115

Final answer:

There are three different ways to make 115 using hundreds, tens, and ones blocks: using 1 hundred, 1 ten, and 5 ones; using 1 hundred, 11 tens, and 0 ones; using 2 hundreds, 0 tens, and 15 ones.

Explanation:

There are three different ways to make 115 using hundreds, tens, and ones blocks:

  1. Using 1 hundred, 1 ten, and 5 ones: This is represented as 100 + 10 + 5 = 115.
  2. Using 1 hundred, 11 tens, and 0 ones: This is represented as 100 + 110 + 0 = 115.
  3. Using 2 hundreds, 0 tens, and 15 ones: This is represented as 200 + 0 + 15 = 115.

Suppose functions are defined as follows.u(x)=x^2+7
w(x)=radical x+4

Find: (w o u)(5)
         (u o w)(5)

Answers

The equation to find the ground speed of an airplane is
Vg = Va + Vw  where Vg is the ground velocity, Va is the velocity through the air, and Vw is the velocity of the wind.
So, first we find the ground speed of each. This is done by dividing the number of miles by the number of hours.
2370 ÷ 3 = 790 miles per hour
7630 ÷ 7 = 1090 miles per hour
Next, we set them both equal to the equation, making sure that the wind velocity of the first equation is subtracted, because the plane is flying against the wind.
790 = Va - Vw
1090 = Va + Vw
Finally, we have to find the speed of both the wind and the jet. We know that it has to be higher than 790, but lower than 1090. So, logically, it would make sense to find the speed that is perfectly in the middle of the two, because adding or subtracting the same number would equal either speed.
To find this, we do a little subtraction, division, and then addition and subtraction.
1090 - 790 = 300
This means there's a 300 mph difference between the two speeds.
300 ÷ 2 = 150
Half of 300 is 150, so it would make sense that the wind speed is 150 mph, either added or subtracted to the final speed.
790 + 150 = 940
1090 - 150 = 940
Because the two match, that means we've found the speed of both the jet plane, and the wind.
The rate (speed) of the jet is 940 miles per hour (mph), and
The rate of the wind is 150 mph.
u(x) = x² + 7
w(x) = √(x + 4)

(w · u)(5) = (√(5 + 4))((5)² + 7)
(w · u)(5) = (√(9))(25 + 7)
(w · u)(5) = (3)(32)
(w · u)(5) = 96

(u · w)(5) = ((5)² + 7)(√(5 + 4))
(u · w)(5) = (25 + 7)(√(9))
(u · w)(5) = (32)(3)
(u · w)(5) = 96









5. Melanie put $5000 in a savings account that pays 1.25% interest compounded yearly. How much money will be in the account 10 years later if she makes no more deposits or withdrawals?

Answers

Answer: $5661 will be in the account 10 years later

Step-by-step explanation:

We would apply the formula for determining compound interest which is expressed as

A = P(1+r/n)^nt

Where

A = total amount in the account at the end of t years

r represents the interest rate.

n represents the periodic interval at which it was compounded.

P represents the principal or initial amount deposited

From the information given,

P = 5000

r = 1.25% = 1.25/100 = 0.0125

n = 1 because it was compounded once in a year.

t = 10 years

Therefore,

A = 5000(1 + 0.0125/1)^1 × 10

A = 5000(1.0125)^10

A = 5000(1.0125)^10

A = $5661

What is the solution to the equation 9^(x - 2) = 27 ? x = 2.5/ x = 0.5/ x = -0.5 /x = 3.5

Answers

Answer:

x=3.5

Step-by-step explanation:

9^(x - 2) = 27

To solve for x , we need to make same base on both sides

9 can be written as 3^2

27 can be written as 3^3

9^(x - 2) = 27

[tex[](3^2)^{x - 2} = 3^3[/tex]

multiply the inside exponent with inside exponent

3^(2(x-2))= 3^3

Both sides have same base 3

so we equation the exponents

2(x-2)= 3

2x-4= 3

add 4 on both sides

2x=7

divide by 2 on both sides

x=(7)/(2) =3.5

To solve this question rewrite 27 as 3 to power 3. And 9 as 3 to power 2. Then distribute 2 in 3 to the power of 2 to the expression of (X-2). Cancel out 3 base at the end. Then set the equation 2x-4=3. Solving for X gives me 7/2 or 3.5.

Meredithsays that 15.17 is greater than 15.8
because 17 is greater than 8. Do you
agree? Explain your reasoning

Answers

15.17 is not greater than 15.8. Meredith statement is wrong.

What is Number system?

A number system is defined as the representation of numbers by using digits or other symbols in a consistent manner.

We need to compare both the numbers 15.17 and 15.80.

For comparing two number we need to check the integer part and decimal part.

The integer part  is same for both the numbers. so let us move towards decimal part. in tenth place 15.17 has 1 and for 15.80 it has 8.

We know that 8 is greater than 1.

Hence 15.8 is greater than 15.17. Merediths answer is wrong.
