37 and 1 / 4 = 37 * 6 = 74 * 3 = 222
It is given that the bacteria in a colony doubles every 8 hours.
To find the population of bacteria 24 hours from now, we need to find the population of bacteria after every 8 hours.
The present population of the bacteria is 9315.
After 8 hours, the bacteria becomes double. So, the number of bacteria becomes 9315 x 2 = 18630.
Again after 8 hours, the bacteria becomes 18630 x 2 = 37260.
Again after 8 hours, the bacteria becomes 37260 x 2 = 74520.
Thus, after 24 hours from now, the population of the bacteria is 74520.
Let the number of large bookcases be x and number of small bookcases be y, then
Maximise P = 80x + 50y;
subkect to:
6x + 2y ≤ 24
x, y ≥ 2
The corner points are (2, 2), (2, 6), (3.333, 2)
For (2, 2): P = 80(2) + 50(2) = 160 + 100 = 260
For (2, 6): P = 80(2) + 50(6) = 160 + 300 = 460
For (3.333, 2): P = 80(3.333) + 50(2) = 266.67 + 100 = 366.67
Therefore, for maximum profit, he should produce 2 large bookcases and 6 small bookcases.
Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:
(4/3)P -(4/3)A + A = B . . . . . . add A
(4P -A)/3 = B . . . . . . . . . . . . . simplify
Then the coordinates of point B are ...
B = (4(1, 6) -(-5, 3))/3 = (9, 21)/3
B = (3, 7)
