Step-by-step explanation:

We have to find the point in the feasible region which maximizes the objective function. To find that point first we need to graph the given inequalities to find the feasible region.

Steps to graph 3x + y ≤ 12:

First we graph 3x + y = 12 then shade the graph for ≤.

plug any value of x say x=0 and x=2 into 3x + y = 12 to find points.

plug x=0

3x + y = 12

3(0) + y = 12

0 + y = 12

y = 12

Hence first point is (0,12)

Similarly plugging x=2 will give y=6

Hence second point is (2,6)

Now graph both points and joint them by a straight line.

test for shading.

plug any test point which is not on the graph of line like (0,0) into original inequality 3x + y ≤ 12:

3(0) + (0) ≤ 12

0 + 0 ≤ 12

0 ≤ 12

Which is true so shading will be in the direction of test point (0,0)


We can repeat same procedure to graph other inequalities.

From graph we see that ABCD is feasible region whose corner points will result into maximum or  minimu for objective function.

Since objective function is not given in the question so i will explain the process.

To find the maximum value of objective function we plug each corner point of feasible region into objective function. Whichever point gives maximum value will be the answer

The temperature has been going down at a constant rate.In 4 hours it went down 12 degrees.Which expression best shows the temper
fomenos

Answer:

<u>t = t₀ - 3n</u>

Step-by-step explanation:

Let t be the temperature and t₀ be the initial temperature of the day

Let n be the number of hours after the initial temperature ( t₀) was registered

Let -3 be the constant of change of temperature ( In 4 hours it went down 12 degrees)

Now, let's write down the expression that shows the temperature change each hour, this way:

t = t₀ - 3n

After 2 hours

t = t₀ - 3 * 2 = t₀ - 6

After 5 hours

t = t₀ - 3 * 5 = t₀ - 15

After 3 hours and 30 minutes

t = t₀ - 3 * 3.5 = t₀ - 10.5

A package of 5 crackers contains 205 Calories. How many Calories are in one cracker using a double number line
natulia [17]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

since there are 205 calories in 5 crackers we can represent this as

205/5

we need to find how many calories are in one cracker, so lets take "x" as the # of calories in 1 cracker

so

\frac{x}{1} =\frac{205}{5}

cross multiply

5x=205

divide by 5 on both sides

x=41

41 calories in 1 cracker

(50 points) Which graph is defined by the function given below?
marta [7]

Answer:

Graph B

Step-by-step explanation:

y = (x - 3)(x - 3)

The x intercepts are at 3

Since both intercepts are at 3, the vertex is at 3

We know it is an upwards facing parabola since it is quadratic and the constant out front is positive
