Answer:
8 boards.
Step-by-step explanation:
Since he bought a few of each length. The only combination that works is when he bought 5 of the 4 ft long board so 4×5=20. Than he bought 3 of the 5ft boards 3×5=15. 20+15=35 ft worth of boards.
Answer:
x = 6
Step-by-step explanation:
The scale factor is
28/8 = 7/2
We take the ratio of the larger side over the smaller side
Using ratios we can find the sides
28 21
----- = ---------
8 x
Using cross products
28x = 21*8
28x =168
Divide each side by 28
28x/28 = 168/28
x =6
Answer:
She purchased the item at a price of Rs 1,406.
Step-by-step explanation:
5% of discount:
This means that she paid 100% - 5% = 95% = 0.95 of the original price of x, that is, 0.95x, and 0.05x was the discount.
Original price:
She got the discount amount of Rs 74.
74 is 5% of the original price, that is:
What price she purchased:
74 subtracted from the original price, that is, x - 74. So 1480 - 74 = 1406.
She purchased the item at a price of Rs 1,406.
Step-by-step explanation:
Although I cannot find any model or solver, we can proceed to model the optimization problem from the information given.
the problem is to maximize profit.
let desk be x
and chairs be y
400x+250y=P (maximize)
4x+3y<2000 (constraints)
according to restrictions y=2x
let us substitute y=2x in the constraints we have
4x+3(2x)<2000
4x+6x<2000
10x<2000
x<200
so with restriction, if the desk is 200 then chairs should be at least 2 times the desk
y=2x
y=200*2
y=400
we now have to substitute x=200 and y=400 in the expression for profit maximization we have
400x+250y=P (maximize)
80000+100000=P
180000=P
P=$180,000
the profit is $180,000
