Hey there :)
We have two equations:
3a + 2b = 7
2a + 2b = 9
We need to solve simultaneously to find the values of a and b
eq.1 3a + 2b = 7
eq.2 ( 2a + 2b = 9 ) x -1 ) multiply by -1 to cancel 2b
3a + 2b = 7
- 2a - 2b = -9 ( Add both together )
-------------------
a = - 2 Substitute the value you found for a in a in order to find b
3( - 2 ) + 2b = 7 2( - 2 ) + 2b = 9
- 6 + 2b = 7 OR - 4 + 2b = 9
2b = 13 2b = 13
b =
b =
Solution :
Demand for cola : 100 – 34x + 5y
Demand for cola : 50 + 3x – 16y
Therefore, total revenue :
x(100 – 34x + 5y) + y(50 + 3x – 16y)
R(x,y) = 

In order to maximize the revenue, set



.............(i)


.............(ii)
Solving (i) and (ii),
4 x (i) ⇒ 272x - 32y = 400
(ii) ⇒ (-<u>) 8x - 32y = -50 </u>
264x = 450
∴ 

So, x ≈ $ 1.70 and y = $ 1.99
R(1.70, 1.99) = $ 134.94
Thus, 1.70 dollars per cola
1.99 dollars per iced ted to maximize the revenue.
Maximum revenue = $ 134.94
Answer:
2003.85
Step-by-step explanation:
I realize I'm a year late, but the math of the previous answer was so terrible I'm honestly too horrified to let this be.
You have save by an increasing amount of 3 pennies per day. You start with 3 and build from that, each day, for 365 days. First, you must figure out what amount of pennies you shoved into your account on the final 365th day.
An= a1+(n-1)d
An=term you want
a1= term you begin with
n= term you want
d= constant amount
A_365= 3 + (365-1)*3
A_365= 1095
Arithmetic Sum: Sn = N/2 (a1 + an)
365/2 * (3 + 1095) = 200385.
This means you've invested a total of 200385 PENNIES after 365 days.
The question asks for dollars, not your rusting lincoln's.
As (I hope) you know, 1 Dollar = 100 pennies
200385 pennies/100 = 2003.85.
This means you have $2003.85 in your account by the conclusion of the 365th day.
