Willy Wonka has 2 candies, Wonka bars and Everlasting Gobstoppers. Both have both natural sugar and sucrose in them. Each Wonka

Bar has 4 grams of natural sugar and 1 gram of sucrose. Each Everlasting Gobstopper has 2 grams of natural sugar and 3 grams of sucrose. Mr. Wonka has 60 grams of natural sugar and 75 grams of sucrose. If each Everlasting Gobstopper has a profit of $1.3 and each Wonka Bar has a profit of $3.2, how many of each candy would give him the maximum profit?

Answer:

Wonka bars=3 and  Everlasting Gobstoppers=24

Step-by-step explanation:

let the wonka bars be X

and everlasting gobstoppers be Y

the objective is to

maximize 1.3x+3.2y=P

subject to constraints

natural sugar

4x+2y=60------1

sucrose

x+3y=75---------2

x>0, y>0

solving 1 and 2 simultaneously we have

4x+2y=60----1

x+3y=75------2

multiply equation 2 by 4 and equation 1 by 1 to eliminate x we have

 4x+2y=60

 4x+12y=300

-0-10y=-240

10y=240

y=240/10

y=24

put y=24 in equation 2 we have'

x+3y=75

x+3(24)=75

x+72=75

x=75-72

x=3

put x=3 and y=24 in the objective function we have

maximize 1.3x+3.2y=P

1.3(3)+3.2(24)=P

3.9+76.8=P

80.7=P

P=$80.9

50Pts guys!!!! Please help me its easy!

Answer:

c. f(x)=x(x+2)(x-1)(x-4)

Step-by-step explanation:

Where it says "as x goes to negative infinity" then "y goes to infinity" (that's the part with the infinity symbols) that means the graph is going up at it's left end. This curve is a quartic (4th degree) which means its left and right ends are kind of parabola-ish, but the middle is not the neat u-ish, v-ish shape of a parabola; it's more like a wonky, noodle-ish wavy affair. Anyway, LIKE a parabola when the beginning of the equation is positive, the two ends point up. That's what's happening here and so we can eliminate b. and d. as potential answers.

Since -2, 0, 1, 4 are zeros (which are solutions...and also x-intercepts) we can find the factors of the function.

If x = -2

ADD 2 to both sides.

x + 2 = 0

This means (x+2) is a factor.

This is enough info to select answer c. but let's verify the other factors.

If x = 1

SUBTRACT 1 from both sides.

x - 1 = 0

Thus means (x - 1) is a factor.

If x = 4

SUBTRACT 4 from both sides.

x - 4 = 0

(x - 4) is a factor.

You can see c. has all these factors as well as x, because x=0 already, so x is a factor too.

I think of this as a working backwards problem, bc usually you have to factor and solve. This one, you have solutions (which are zeros and x-intercepts) and work backwards to find factors and multiply them together to find the function.

Kim has 8 dollars less than twice Ricky. If
olya-2409 [2.1K]

Based on the information given, it should be noted that the correct option is C. 3x - 8.

<h3>Solving equations.</h3>

From the information given, it was stated that Kim has 8 dollars less than twice Ricky. This will be:

= (2 × x) - 8.

= 2x - 8

Also, Ricky has x dollars. Therefore, the amount that they have together will be:

= 2x - 8 + x

= 3x - 8
