The maximum value of the objective function is 31.787

<h3>How to maximize the function?</h3>

The given parameters are:

Objective function:

Max P = 4x + 5y + 21

Subject to:

y- x < 1

21x + 7y < 25

x>-2,  y>-4

Rewrite the inequalities as equation

y - x = 1

21x + 7y =  25

Add x to both sides in y - x = 1

y = x + 1

Substitute y = x + 1 in 21x + 7y =  25

21x + 7x + 7 =  25

Evaluate the like terms

28x = 18

Divide both sides by 28

x = 0.643

Substitute x = 0.643 in y = x + 1

y = 0.643 + 1

y = 1.643

So, we have:

Max P = 4x + 5y + 21

This gives

P = 4 * 0.643 + 5* 1.643 + 21

Evaluate

P = 31.787

Hence, the maximum value of the objective function is 31.787

A person that is 5 feet tall casts a shadow 25 feet long. How long is the shadow of a tree that is 15 feet tall?
fiasKO [112]
The person and his shadow make a right triangle as well as the tree and it's shadow. they will be similar right triangles containing angles that are equal. I'm in similar triangles the angles are proportional so a ratio could be used to determine the shadow length. this ratio is:
25/5 = x/15
(Notice that both the height of the person and
the height of the tree height of the tree are on
the bottom because these would be similar
sides and the same for the shadows with both
on top. this could easily have been switched
with the shadows on bottom and heights on
top like:
5/25 = 15/x
however I noticed the 25/5 could easily be
reduced. this eliminated the need for cross
multiplication.)

The 25/5 can be reduced to 5:
5 = x/15
and then multiply both sides by 15 and you get:
x = 75
so the answer is 75 feet long.

this can be checked various ways. using trigonometry we have the opposite and adjacent sides so tangent could be used to find the angle between the shadow and the hypotenuse. this is:
tan (x) = opposite/adjacent
opposite = height
adjacent = shadow
so:
tan (x) = 5/25 for person
tan (x) = 15/75 for tree
these equations both reduce to:
tan (x) = 1/5
And of both equations are the same then the angLee are equal creating similar triangles and a correct answer

James drives 585 miles from Raleigh to Cleveland Ohio on Friday and back on Sunday.If the trip takes him 18 hours total how many
creativ13 [48]

if Raleigh to Cleveland = 585 miles then Cleveland to Raleigh = 585 miles

585 miles + 585 miles = 1170 miles

1170 miles / 18 hours = 65 miles / hour

James drove 65 miles per hour.

lidiya [134]

y < \dfrac{2}{3}x\\\\y=\dfrac{2}{3}x\\\\for\ x=0\to y=\dfrac{2}{3}(0)=0\to(0,\ 0)\\\\for\ x=3\to y=\dfrac{2}{3}(3)=2\to(3,\ 2)\\\\y\geq-x+2\\\\y=-x+2\\\\for\ x=0\to y=-0+2=2\to(0,\ 2)\\\\for\ x=2\to y=-2+2=0\to(2,\ 0)

y < \dfrac{2}{3}x

the dotted line. shadow under the line

y\geq-x+2

solid line. shadow above the line
