Answer:

(1/4, 3)

Step-by-step explanation:

Substitution is essentially where we write one variable in terms of another, substitute that into the other equation so that we are left with 1 variable, and then solve for that variable.

Here, the second equation already shows y written in terms of x: y = 12x. Substitute this into the first equation:

6 + 8y = 30

6 + 8 * (12x) = 30

6 + 96x = 30

96x = 24

x = 24/96 = 1/4

Plug this into any of the equations to solve for y:

y = 12x

y = 12 * (1/4) = 3

The answer is (1/4, 3). *Note that none of the answer choices matches this, which means that you may have copied the answer incorrectly.*

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

6x + 8y = 30

y = ½x

6x + 8(½x) = 30

6x + 4x = 30

10x = 30

x = 3

y = 3/2

The Best Company produces two commercial products : blenders and mixers. Both products require a two step production process inv

deff fn [24]

Answer:

Maximum profit is $87 when 3 blenders and 11 mixers are produced.

Step-by-step explanation:

let blender is represented by $x_{1}$ and and mixer by $x_{2}$ .

total time to deliver parts = 24 hrs

total time to assemble = 30 hrs

time taken by each blender to deliver parts = 1 hr

time taken by each mixer to deliver parts = 2 hr

time taken by blenders in final assembling= 2 hr

time taken by mixers in final assembling = 3 hr

Each blender produced nets the firm= $7

Each mixer produced nets the firm= $6

Using this all data linear system of equation will be:

$x_{1} + 2x_{2} =24 ----- (1)\\2x_{1} + 2x_{2} = 30 ----- (2)\\$

profit function:

$z= 7x_{1} +6x_{2} --- (3)$

$from (1)\\x_{1} = 0 \implies x_{2}= 12\\x_{2}= 0 \implies x_{1}= 24\\$

Coordinate points obtained from (1) are (0,12) and (24,0)

$from (2)\\x_{1}=0 \implies x_{2}=10\\x_{2}=0 \implies x_{1}=15\\$

Coordinate points obtained from (2) are (0,10) and (15,0)

plotting these on graph

points lying in feasible region are:

A(0,0)

B(0,10)

C(3,11)

D(12,0)

substituting these points in (3) to find the maximum profit:

for A (0,0)

z = 0

for B (0,10)

z = 60

for C (3,11)

z = 87

for D (12,0)

z=84

So maximum profit is $87 when 3 blenders and 11 mixers are produced.
