The area of a parking lot is 1710 square meters. A car requires 5 square meters and a bus requires 32 square meters of space. Th

ere can be at most 180 vehicles parked at one time. If the cost to park a car is $2.00 and a bus is $6.00, how many buses should be in the lot to maximize income? Please help :(

Answer:

To maximize the income should be 30 buses and 150 cars

Step-by-step explanation:

Let

x-----> the number of cars

y ----> the number of bus

we know that

5x+32y\leq1,710 ------> inequality A

x+y\leq 180 ----> inequality B

The function of the cost to maximize is equal to

C=2x+6y

Solve the system of inequalities by graphing

The solution is the shaded area

see the attached figure

The vertices of the solution are

(0,0),(0,53),(150,30),(180,0)

<em>Verify</em>

(0,53) ---> C=2(0)+6(53)=\$318

(150,30) ---> C=2(150)+6(30)=\$480

therefore

To maximize the income should be 30 buses and 150 cars

Answer:

Givens

  • The area of the parking lot is 1710 square meters.
  • A car requires 5 square meters.
  • A bus requires 32 square meters.
  • There can be a maximum of 180 vehicles.
  • The cost for a car is $2.00.
  • The cost for a bus is $6.00.

To solve this problem we need to create a table to order all this information and express it as a system of inequations.

                     Car           Bus     Total Capcity

Sq. Meters      5c           32b            1710

N° vehicles      c              b                180                

Therefore, the inequalities are

5c+32b\leq 1710\\c+b\leq 180

The expresion which represents the income is

I=2c+6b, because a car is $2.00 and a bus is $6.00.

Now, we first need to find the critical points of the solution of the inequality system, which is attached. Observe that the only points that can be a solution is (150,30), because there can't be just car or just buses.

Then, we replace this point in the income expression

I=2c+6b\\I=2(150)+6(30)=300+180=480

Therefore, in order to maximize incomes, we need to park 150 cars and 30 buses, to make $480 income.

Murrr4er [49]
There are a total of 16 coins, so out of the ratio, that 16 goes on the bottom.  Now you have to add up the coins that are NOT quarters and that number goes on the top.  So your ratio is 8/16 or 1/2

matrenka [14]

Answer:

Correct options are A,B,D:

  • The sample needs to be random, but we don't know if it is.
  • The actual count of community residents who received the concert brochure by mail is too small.  
  • n(1 minus p‐hat) is not greater than 10.

Step-by-step explanation:

Concert marketing: The college’s performing arts center wanted to investigate why ticket sales for the upcoming season significantly decreased from last year’s sales. The marketing staff collected data from a survey of community residents. Out of the 110 people surveyed, only 7 received the concert brochure in the mail.
