Let a = weight of large box in pounds
Let b = weight of small box in pounds
(1) 65a + 70b=4000
(2) a+b=60
Now we can simultaneously solve these equations.
a = 60 - b. Hence 65(60 - b) + 70b = 4000 So 3900 + 5b = 4000 and 100 = 5b hence b = 20.
SImilarly a = 40. Now we can verify too by putting in the calculated values.

Answer:
y = (1/2)x - 3 Answer A is closest.
Step-by-step explanation:
Two points on the line are (0, -3) and (4, -1). Notice that I've intentionally chosen "nice" points whose coordinates are integers; this makes the math easier. The point (1, -5/2) is also on the line if you want to use it, but the math's a bit more complicated.
Going from (0, -3) to (4, -1), x increases by 4 and y increases by 2. Hence, the slope of this line is m = rise / run = 2/4, or m = 1/2.
The slope-intercept formula for the equation of a straight line is the most convenient to use here, since we can tell immediately from the graph that the y-intercept is (0, -3):
y = (1/2)x - 3
Answer A should be y = (1/2)x - 3 for improved legibility. 1 2 x is not correct as a way to express (1/2)x.
Answer:
500 type A; 3500 type B
Step-by-step explanation:
The method of Lagrange multipliers can solve this quickly. For objective function f(x, y) and constraint function g(x, y)=0 we can set the partial derivatives of the Lagrangian to zero to find the values of the variables at the extreme of interest.
These functions are ...

The Lagrangian is ...


Since x and y are in thousands, maximum profit is to be had when the company produces ...
