It was a time when my mother’s eyes would gleam as she loved to work in the kitchen. It usually started just before Thanksgiving and ran all the way up to Christmas Eve. It was all about the candy. My grandma and mom would usually start baking just before Thanksgiving. Pies and cakes would be on the menu.
The manager of Paul's fruit and vegetable store is considering the purchase of a new seedless watermelon from a wholesale distributor. Since this seedless watermelon costs $4, will sell for $7, and is highly perishable, he only expects to sell between six and nine of them. What is the opportunity
None b. i only c. ii only d. i and ii e. ii and iii 5. For the positive integers a,b, and k, ak || b means that ak is a divisor of b, but ak+1 is not a divisor of b. If k is a positive integer and 2k || 72, then k is equal to p. 2 q. 3 r. 4 s. 8 t. 18 6. If p is the product of integers from 1 to 30, inclusive, what is the greatest integer k for which 3k is a factor of p?

One person needs “all of it” to prepare twelve desserts for guests she has invited over later that afternoon, the other person wishes to have the entire orange immediately with his sandwich. The integrative bargainer looks to delve deeper into the situation and find ways to ‘enlarge the pie’ (or in this case the orange) for everyone concerned. In this case it turns out that the person making the desserts wants the orange for its peel to garnish the desserts she’s making for her friends, and the sandwich eater wanted the orange for its juice as a drink. Both sides can therefore get 100% of what they want, which is a better
The selling price of iPhone 6 would have to be at least £700 for enough phones to be produced for Apple to reach its sales goal (20 million units). It is point B (20,700). The equation of the line: (Y-550)/(x-10) = (700-550)/ (20-10) Y-550 =15x-150 Y =15x+400 The linear function of Sales (demand) The pricing team made the estimate that 20 million sales of the iPhone 6 would only be reached if the price was at most £500, and that if the iPhone 6 was sold at £700, sales would only reach 4 million. So the two points are (4,700) and (20,500). The equation of the line: (Y-500)/(x-20) = (700-500)/ (4-20) Y-500 = -12.5+250 Y =-12.5x+750 The intersection point The two equations: y=15x+400…….1 y=-12.5x+750……2 15x+400=y=-12.5x+750 27.5x = 350 x=12.727 million units Sub x=12.727 million units into 1 y=15(12.727) +400 y=590.909 pound So the
To what extent would break even analysis be useful for Organic hampers? 12 marks The breakeven point for organic hampers is the amount of hampers the company needs to make at which its costs and revenue are equal. This means the company has gone from making a loss to breaking even. For a company like Organic Hampers break even analysis can be very useful. This is because they can find out exactly how many hampers are needed to be sold to make the business economically viable.
1. It will take Kristen's Cookie Company 26 minutes to fill a rush order of one dozen because washing the bowl and beaters, adding the ingredients and mixing the ingredients takes 6 minutes; spooning the cookies takes 2 minutes per dozen; putting the cookies in the oven takes 1 minute; cooking time is 9 minutes; letting them cool takes 5 minutes; it takes 2 minutes to pack each box; and it takes 1 minute to accept payment. All of these processes add up to 26 minutes. 2. Assuming Kristen's Cookie Company is open for four hours each night, Kristen's Cookie Company can successfully complete 22 orders of a dozen cookies each.
It worked. Here's how it went down. Preparing I sit down with Dr. Will Clower, whose new book, Eat Chocolate, Lose Weight, set off this harebrained scheme. ECLW is almost 300 pages, but the kicker is this: You can eat whatever you want during meals, but you forego other snacks and sweets in favor of starting and ending each meal with a small piece of very dark chocolate. Every meal-yes, including breakfast-needs a "starter" and an "ender" of dark chocolate, specifically the high cocoa content kind (70% cocoa or above).
1)How long will it take to fill a rush order? To find out how long it takes to finish the first order, the duration of all steps has to be added to each other (Rager, 2008 p. 221). Washing the bowl, adding and mixing the ingredients takes 6 minutes. 2 minutes for dishing up the dough onto a tray. My roommate needs 1 minute to put the tray into the oven and there they bake for 9 minutes.
