A waterpark has a profit of $22,000 on sunny days, a profit of $11,500 on overcast days, but a loss of $4,000 on rainy days. For the month of June, the weather is predicted to be 62% sunny, 23% overcast, and 15% rainy. Find the expected daily profit for the waterpark in June.
Roland's Barber Shop and Charley's Barber Shop are both located in the business district of a certain town. Roland estimates that if he raises the price of a haircut by $1, he will increase his market
share by 6% if Charley raises his price by the same amount; he will decrease his market share by 1% if Charley holds his price at the same level; and he will decrease his market share by 4% if
Charley lowers his price by $1. If Roland keeps his price the same, he will increase his market share by 5% if Charley raises his price by $1; he will keep the same market share if Charley holds the
price at the same level; and he will decrease his market share by 2% if Charley lowers his price by $1. Finally, if Roland lowers the price he charges by $1, his market share will increase by 6% if
Charley raises his prices by the same amount; he will increase his market share by 4% if Charley holds his price at the same level; and he will increase his market share by 2% if Charley lowers his

- If you are performing a break-even analysis for a business and their cost and revenue equations are dependent, explain what this means for the company's profit margins.arrow_forwardThe research department at a manufacturing company has developed a new process that it believes will result in an improved product. Management must decide whether to go ahead and market the new product. The new product may or may not be better than the old one. If the new product is better and the company decides to market it, sales should increase by $70,000. If it is not better and they replace the old product with the new product on the market, they will lose $25,000 to competitors. If they decide not to market the new product, they will lose a total of $60,000 if it is better and just research costs of $20,000 if it is not. Complete parts (a) and (b) below.

- Each summer, a jet ski company rents both jet skis and water skis to its guests for a flat daily rate per jet ski and a flat daily rate per pairs of water skis. Four pairs of water skis and three jet skis will cost a family $300. Three pairs of water skis and six jet skis will cost a family $480. During a particularly slow season, the company announces a 5% discount on all water skis and jet skis. What would be the cost of renting two pairs of water skis and one jet skis if they were rented during this discounted period? caarrow_forwardAn investor has $5000 to invest in three different accounts. One is low-risk,one is a medium-risk and the third is a high-risk investment. The low-risk account is expected to pay 5.2% interest, the medium-risk investment is expected to pay 6.7% interest and the high-risk investment is espected to pay10.3% interest. Due to her age, the investor is willing to invest twice as much money in the high-risk account as in the low-risk investment. How much money should be invested in each of the accounts to anticipate a return of 8% on the total investment.arrow_forwardA manufacturer of downhill and cross-country skis reports that manufacturing time is 1 hours and 4 hours, respectively, per ski and that finishing time is 3 hours for each downhill and 4 hours for each cross-crountry ski. There are only 16 hours per week available for the manufacturing process and 24 hours for the finishing process. The average profit is $62 for downhill ski and $92 for cross-country ski. The manufacturer wants to know how many of each type of ski should be made to maximize the weekly profit. Corner points of the feasible region: If there is more than one corner point, type the points separated by a comma (i.e. (1,2).(3,4)).

- A.F.D.C. was intended to provide mothers with enough to get by — barely — while raising their children. In 1970 three-person families on A.F.D.C. received, on average, $194 a month. Adjusting for inflation, that’s the equivalent of around $15,000 a year today, compared with the $6,000 a family with two children over age 6 ($7,200 if they’re under 6) will receive under the new plan. In 1970, an A.F.D.C. family of three received about 25 percent of median income for three-person families — hardly a generous allowance, but maybe, just, enough to live on. The new American Rescue Plan will give a single parent of two children less than 7 percent of median income c. What is median family income today (2021)?
