JET Copier Case Analysis In the case study for Jet copies three students are contemplating the benefits of opening a copy business in their town. They are also trying to decide whether or not it would be a good investment to purchase a second copier‚ in case their main copy machine breaks down. The students have already purchased an $18000 copier to start their copy business. They are trying to determine if they should get a loan to purchase a smaller $8000 copier as back-up.

Days-to-Repair When determining the number of days needed to repair a copier‚ it is best to assume that the number of days is random. It is best to generate this random‚ which is illustrated on the excel spreadsheet as r2. R2 will be numbers between 0 and 1. To determine this value a random number will be generated in excel. The number of days needed to repair the copier will be determined based on the cumulative outline below: 0.00 > r2 < 0.20‚ then it will take 1 day; 0.20 >

MA1506 TUTORIAL 1 1. Solve the following differential equations: (a) x(x + 1)y = 1 (b) (sec(x))y = cos(5x) (c) y = e(x−3y) (d) (1 + y)y + (1 − 2x)y 2 = 0 Use www.graphmatica.com to sketch the functions you found as solutions of [a]-[d]‚ if y = 1/2 at x = 1. Graphmatica can also directly sketch the graph if you insert the equation itself; for example‚ in [a] you just enter x(x + 1)dy = 1 {1‚ 1/2}. [curly brackets for the initial conditions‚ with x followed by y.] Here dy represents
