Answer:

<em>50 Chef's salads and 50 Caesar salads should be prepared in order to maximize profit.</em>

Step-by-step explanation:

Suppose, the number of Chef's salad is x and the number of Caesar salad is y

On a typical weekday, it sells between 40 and 60 Chefs salads and between 35 and 50 Caesar salads.

So, the two constraints are:  40\leq x\leq 60 and  35\leq y\leq 50

The total number sold has never exceed 100 salads. So, another constraint will be:   x+y\leq 100

According to the graph of the constraints, the vertices of the common shaded region are:  (40,35), (60,35), (60,40), (50,50) and (40,50)   <em>(Refer to the attached image for the graph)</em>

The lunch stand makes a $.75 profit on each Chef's salad and $1.20 profit on each Caesar salad. So, the profit function will be:  P=0.75x+1.20y

For  (40, 35) ,   P=0.75(40)+1.20(35)=72

For  (60, 35) ,   P=0.75(60)+1.20(35)=87

For  (60, 40) ,   P=0.75(60)+1.20(40)=93

For  (50, 50) ,   P=0.75(50)+1.20(50)=97.5 <u><em>(Maximum)</em></u>

For  (40, 50) ,   P=0.75(40)+1.20(50)=90

Profit will be maximum when x=50 and y=50

Thus, 50 Chef's salads and 50 Caesar salads should be prepared in order to maximize profit.

Irina-Kira [14]

Answer:

<h2>If two angles measures 180 degrees, then they form a linear pair.</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

The conditional statement should be this way, because after the word ''if'', should be placed the condition, and after the word ''then'', should be the consequence.

If 16 is added to one-third of a number, the result is three times the number. What is the number?
AnnZ [28]
First set up the equation based on the description.

\frac{1}{3} x + 16 = 3x

Use subtraction to get the "x"s on one side of the equation. You can next subtract <span>\frac{1}{3} x from both sides.

16 = </span>\frac{8}{3}<span> x

Now you can multiply both sides of the equation by </span>\frac{3}{8}<span>  to solve for x

x = 6</span>
