After taking an Operations Management class he remembered that a good place to start would be to get a current measure of his division's productivity. The Murray Division is comprised of 5 employees who are paid $10 hourly and work 40 hours per week. The division used 75 pounds of material during the week he is studying. Each week JTCL Ltd assigns an overhead charge of $1,000 to the Murray Division. Material costs $10 per pound. The division completed 9000 units of product last week. Which of the following best describes last week’s labor productivity at the Murray Division?

horizontal translation of 2 units in the positive x direction

followed by

vertical translation of 3 units in the positive y direction

d, x=8

step-by-step explanation:

simplifying

4x + -5 = 2x + 11

reorder the terms:

-5 + 4x = 2x + 11

reorder the terms:

-5 + 4x = 11 + 2x

solving

-5 + 4x = 11 + 2x

solving for variable 'x'.

move all terms containing x to the left, all other terms to the right.

add '-2x' to each side of the equation.

-5 + 4x + -2x = 11 + 2x + -2x

combine like terms: 4x + -2x = 2x

-5 + 2x = 11 + 2x + -2x

combine like terms: 2x + -2x = 0

-5 + 2x = 11 + 0

-5 + 2x = 11

add '5' to each side of the equation.

-5 + 5 + 2x = 11 + 5

combine like terms: -5 + 5 = 0

0 + 2x = 11 + 5

2x = 11 + 5

combine like terms: 11 + 5 = 16

2x = 16

divide each side by '2'.
