Answer: Choice C) Multiplication property of inequality
The rule basically says that if you start with a < b and you multiply both sides by some positive number c, then a*c < b*c. The sign doesn't flip if you multiply both sides by a positive number.
The sign will flip if c is negative. So we'll go from a < b to a*c > b*c if c is negative.
Example 1:
1 < 5
-2 > -10 ... multiplied both sides by -2; sign flips
Example 2:
3 < 7
9 < 21 ... multiplied both sides by 3; sign does not flip
Similar rules apply to a > b,

Answer:
(24, 224 ) i.e. 24 basketball and 224 footballs
Step-by-step explanation:
<em>Basketball :</em>
uses 4 ounces of foam
20 minutes of labor
profit = $2.50
<em>Football :</em>
uses 3 ounces of foam
30 minutes of labor
profit = $2
Manufacturer has :
768 ounces of foam , 120 labor hours per week,
<u>using the simplex method to determine the optimal production schedule so as to maximize profits </u>
lets assume
x = number of basketball
y = number of footballs
maximize = 2.5 x + 2y from a linear programming problem
attached below is the detailed solution
