Answer:
P=$254
Step-by-step explanation:
let Hot N' Spicy be x
and Mild Mannered be y
the objective function is
38x+35y=P
the constraints are
1. tomato sauce
2x+3y=18--------1
2. hot peppers
2x+y=10--------2
solving 1 and 2 we have
using substitution method
2x+y=10--------2
y=10-2x
put y=10-2x in eqn 1
2x+3(10-2x)=18
2x+30-6x=18
2x-6x=18-30
-4x=-12
x=12/4
x=3
put x=3 in eqn 2 we have
2(3)+y=10
6+y=10
y=10-6
y=4
He should make 3 gallons of Hot N' Spicy
and 4 gallons Mild Mannered
38(3)+35(4)=P
114+140=P
254=P
P=$254
remember that to put a number in scientific notation is necessary to have the first digit of the number different to 0, so
to calculate the order of magnitude, if the number is greater than 3.16, we assume it as a 10, so in this case as 7.654 > 3.16 we get that the order is
So the order is 10^-3
