Your furniture store sells two types of dining room tables. The first, type A, costs $210 and you make a $21 profit on each one.

The second, type B, costs $180 and you make a $20 profit on each one. You can order no more than 130 tables this month, and you need to make at least $2640 profit on them. If you must order at least one of each type of table, how many of each type of table should you order if you want to minimize your cost? Need to know answer and how to graph answer

<u>Answer</u>

In order to minimize total cost sell A type 40 numbers and B type 90 numbers

<u>Solution</u>

furniture store sells two types of dining room tables.  

The first, type A, costs $210 and you make a $21 profit on each one.  

The second, type B, costs $180 and you make a $20 profit on each one.  

We can order no more than 130 tables this month, and you need to make at least $2640 profit on them.

Let x be the number table  Type A sold, type B sold = 130-x

To find the value of x

21x +(130-x)20=2640

solving we get x=40

There are two possibilities

1)

A type sold =40 B type sold = 130 - 40 =90

total cost = 40 x 210 +  90 x 180 = 24600

2)

A type sold =90 B type sold = 130 - 90 =40

total cost = (90 x 210) + (40x180)=26100

In order to minimize total cost, choose first possibility

sell A type 40 numbers and B type 90 numbers

A chemist has one solution that has 50% acid. She has another solution that is 25% acid. How many liters of the 50% acid solutio
Tatiana [17]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's begin by assigning letters to represent our two unknowns:

   x (liters of 25% solution)

   y (liters of 50% solution)

 

Our system of equations will consist of two equations:

   Equation #1 (total volume of solution)

   Equation #2 (total concentration of acid)

 

Our total volume of solution is 10 liters, which can be expressed as the sum of our unknowns:

   Equation #1:  x + y = 10

 

Our total concentration of acid can be expressed as the sum of the individual acid concentrations to make up the concentration of the final solution:

   Equation #2:  (0.25)(x) + (0.50)(y) =

                            (0.40)(10)

 

We can use Equation #1 to express one unknown in terms of the other and then plug that expression into Equation #2 to solve for one of the unknowns:

   x + y = 10

         y = 10 - x

 

Now we'll plug our expression for y in terms of x into Equation #2 and solve for x:

   0.25(x) + 0.50(10 - x) = 0.40(10)

   0.25x + 5 - 0.50x = 4

   -0.25x = 4 - 5

   -0.25x = -1

          x = (-1)/(-0.25)

          x = 4 (liters of 25% solution)

 

Now we'll plug our value for x into Equation #1 and solve for y:

   4 + y = 10

         y  = 10 - 4

         y = 6 (liters of 50% solution)

 

Finally, we will verify the correctness of our answers by plugging these values into Equation #2 to see if the sum of the component acid concentrations equals the final solution concentration:

   0.25(4) + (0.50)(6) = 0.40(10)

   1 + 3 = 4

         4 = 4 (our answers are correct)

Find the sum of the first 10<br> terms.<br> 40,37,34,31,...
MArishka [77]

Answer:

It seems each number is 3 less than the previous number.

We must sum these 10 numbers

40, 37, 34, 31, 28, 25, 22, 19, 16, 13

The sum would equal the average of the middle 2 numbers times 10.

(28 + 25) / 2 = 53 / 2 = 26.5

We multiply by 10 because there are 10 numbers and this equals

265
