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

Answer:

B. (-0.73, 0), (2.73, 0)

Step-by-step explanation:

vertex form of a parabola

y = a(x-h)^2 +k

y = a(x-1)^2 -9

substitute the point in to find a

-6 = a (0-1) ^2 -9

-6 = a *1 -9

add 9 to each side

-6+9 = a -9+9

3 =a

y = 3(x-1)^2 -9

FOIL

y = 3(x-1)(x-1) -9

y = 3(x^2-2x+1) -9

distribute

y = 3x^2-6x+3-9

combine like terms

y = 3x^2 -6x -6

factor out 3

y= 3(x^2 - 2x -2)

set = 0

0 =  3(x^2 - 2x -2)

x^2 - 2x -2 =0

using the quadratic formula

-b±sqrt(b^2 -4ac)

----------------------

2a

-(-2) ± sqrt(2^2 - 4(1)(-2))

-------------------------------

2(1)

2 ± sqrt(4+8)

------------------

2

2±sqrt(12)

---------------

2

2±2sqrt(3)

----------------

2

1±sqrt(3)

roots:  2.73,  and  -.73

Solve (x - 5)2 = 3.O A. x = -51 1/3O B. x = 3 15O C. x = 5+:13O D. x = 8 and x = -2
Virty [35]

In order to solve the given expression follow these steps:

1. Take the square roots on both sides in order to get rid of the power on the left side:

√(x-5)² = ±√3

x - 5 = ±√3

2. add 5 on both sides:

x-5 + 5 = 5 ±√3

x = 5 ±√3

Then, the solution is x = 5 ±√3
