Answer:
18,000 is invested at 8%.
12,000 is invested at 6%.
20,000 is invested at 9%.
Explanation:
x = amount invested at 8%.
y = amount invested at 6%.
z = amount invested at 9%.
x + y + z = 50,000
.08x + .06y + .09z = 3960
interest on the first investment is equal to 2 times interest on the second investment.
.08x = 2 * .06y
solve for x to get x = .12y/.08 = 1.5y
since .08x = .12y, you can replace .08x with .12y.
since x = 1.5y, you can replace x with 1.5y
your two equations of x + y + z = 50,000 and .08x + .06y + .09z = 3960 become:
1.5y + y + z = 50,000
.12y + .06y + .09z = 3960
combine like terms in both equations to get: 2.5y + z = 50,000
.18y + .09z = 3960
you now have 2 equations with 2 unknown variables which can be solved simultaneously for a unique solution.
we will eliminate the z variable from the 2 equations in the following manner.
multiply both sides of the first eqution by 9 and multiply both sides of the second equation by 100.
you will get:
2.5y + z = 50,000 becomes 22.5y + 9z = 450,000.
.18y + .09z = 3960 becomes 18y + 9z = 396,000.
the 2 equations are now:
22.5y + 9z = 450,000
18y + 9z = 396,000
subtract the second equation from the first to get:
4.5y = 54,000
divide both sides of this equation by 4.5 to get:
y = 12,000
since x = 1.5y, then x must be equal to 18,000
since x + y + z = 50,000, then z must be equal to 20,000
you have:
x = 18,000
y = 12,000
z = 20,000
the interest on each of these investments is:
.08 * 18,000 = 1,440
.06 * 12,000 = 720
.09 * 20,000 = 1,800
add up the investments and you get 50,000
add up the interest and you get 3,960
the interest on the first investment is 2 times the interest on the second investment because 1,440 = 2 * 720.
all results are confirmed as good.
your solution is:
18,000 is invested at 8%.
12,000 is invested at 6%.
20,000 is invested at 9%.

Answer:
progress is impossible to track without measurable performance targets.
Explanation:
The rationale for this philosophy is that progress is impossible to track without measurable performance targets. Meaning that without actively keeping track of the progress you make throughout your journey it will continue seeming as though you are not advancing at all towards your end goal.

A _____ is used for goods that must be produced at a specific site or that are so large and bulky that it isn't feasible to move them from station to station.
Answer:
fixed position
Explanation:
A fixed position layout is where a product to be produced remains in a certain spot or location but the workers needed to work on the product , including machinery are moved to the place where the product is to be produced as at when required. This is because there may be limited space at the project site, hence component parts of the product to be manufactured are then coupled at other site and taken to the product site.
An example of fixed layout is the construction of dams, shipbuilding, buildings etc. A fixed position layout is most suited for heavy and fragile products.

Answer: Work out at the gym
Explanation:
Opportunity cost of a decision is the next best alternative that would have been picked if the current decision wasn't made. For example suppose you would either eat chips or meat and you chose to eat meat. The chips are an opportunity cost of the meat.
In the same vein, the opportunity cost of going to library would be your next best (preferred) activity which in this case would be to work out at the gym.
In order words when you go to the library, you are giving up a chance to go to the gym.

If the quantity demanded at a price of $10 is 2,000 and the quantity demanded at a price of $8 is 2,400, a price-discriminating monopolist would want to:
Answer:
D. sell 2.000 units for $10 each and then sell an additional 400 units for $8 each
Explanation:
Since in the question it is mentioned that
Quantity demanded is 2,000 at a price of $10
And, the other case is
Quantity demanded is 2,400 at a price of $8
So here we can conclude that
The quantity demanded of 2,000 would be at a price of $10
And, the additional units i.e. 400 (2,400 - 2,000) would be at a price of $8
Therefore the correct option is d.
