Answer:

The maximum profit is reached with 4 deluxe units and 6 economy units.

Step-by-step explanation:

This is a linear programming problem.

We have to optimize a function (maximize profits). This function is given by:

P=98D+72E

being D: number of deluxe units, and E: number of economy units.

The restrictions are:

- Assembly hours: 3D+2E\leq24

- Paint hours: 0.5D+1E\leq8

Also, both quantities have to be positive:

D\geq 0\\\\E\geq0

We can solve graphically, but we can evaluate the points (D,E) where 2 or more restrictions are saturated (we know that one of this points we will have the maximum profit)

(8;0) \rightarrow  P=98*8+72*0= 784\\\\(0;8) \rightarrow P= 98*0+72*8=576\\\\(4;6) \rightarrow P=98*4+72*6=824

The maximum profit is reached with 4 deluxe units and 6 economy units.

n200080 [17]

Answer:

A. 105°

Step-by-step explanation:

Consecutive interior angles are angles that are supplementary, meaning they add up to 180°. If one angle is worth 75°, to find the other angle, we subtract 75 from 180 to get the angle measure.

  • 180-75
  • 105

Therefore, the answer is A.
