"Jack owns a local trucking company. With fuel costs being expensive, Jack wants to evaluate how much fuel, on average, he should store in his 6,800 gallon fuel tank. Each year Jack uses 68,000 gallons of diesel (usage is spread evenly throughout the year). Jack knows with certainly that he can have a load of fuel delivered in 5 days. The price of fuel is $2.04 per gallon and there is a separate $50 ordering fee per order. Jack thinks his holding cost per unit is 40%. If Jack orders at EOQ, what will be the average inventory of fuel in his 6,800 gallon tank?"

1443.5 gallons

Explanation:

Thw following can be gotten from the question:

Fuel tank capacity = 6800 gallon

Annual demand, A = 68000 gallons

Ordering cost, O= $50

Carrying cost, C = 40% × $2.04 = $0.816

EOQ = ✓2AO/✓C

= ✓(2×68000×50) / ✓0.816

= ✓6800000 / ✓0.816

= 2887

Average inventory = EOQ/2

= 2887/2

= 1443.5 gallons

Therefore, the average inventory will be 1443.5 gallons.

answer; ///i believe the correct answer is(e) complementary to each other;

being born in poverty would limit the people's chances, opportunities and benefits.

this happen because of several things, such as:

- poor people tend to gain less access to good education and nutrition. this mean that their chance to obtain high paying jobs would also be limited.

- poor people tend to socialize with other poor people while the rich tend to socialize with other rich people. this means that simply throguh their social circle, rich people would have more business opportunities compared to the poor people.

- rich people tend to have more capital in their disposal. this would benefit them in business since it is far easier for them to fund their business operation compared to poor people.
