You would like to make a nutritious meal of eggs, edamame, and elbow macaroni. The meal should provide at least 40 g of carbohyd

rates, at least 20 g of protein, and no more than 50 g of fat. An egg (one serving) contains 2 g of carbohydrates, 17 g of protein, and 14 g of fat. A serving of edamame contains 12 g of carbohydrates, 12 g of protein, and 6 g of fat. A serving of elbow macaroni contains 43 g of carbohydrates, 8 g of protein, and 1 g of fat. An egg costs $2, a serving of edamame costs $5, and a serving of elbow macaroni costs $3. Formulate a linear optimization model that could be used to determine the number of servings of egg, edamame, and elbow macaroni that should be in the meal in order to meet the nutrition requirements at minimal cost. (You don’t need to find the optimal solution to the model you formulate) ======== In your response please - define decision variables with NUN (Name, Unit, Notation) (e.g. Let E be the number of eggs in the meal) Then provide the mathematical model for the LP problem. - objective function - constraints

Answer:

2x + 12y + 43 ≥ 40

17x + 12y + 8z ≥ 20

14x + 6y + z ≤ 50

x ≥ 0

y ≥ 0

z ≥ 0

Step-by-step explanation:

given:

Cost Eggs = $2

Cost of edema = $5

cost of  elbow Macaroni = $3

Lets eggs = x,

edamame = y

elbow macaroni = z

TC = 2x+5y+3z

Therefore;

2x + 12y + 43 ≥ 40

17x + 12y + 8z ≥ 20

14x + 6y + z ≤ 50

x ≥ 0

y ≥ 0

z ≥ 0

the first objective is to make sure the total cost is subject to the required nutritional requirements.

So the total cost function (TC) is denoted by the number of servings multiplied for each costs. Eggs cost $2, edamame $5, and macaroni $3.

The problem subjects that each meal contains at least 40g of carbohydrates (this is the condition).

to get this we need to add what each meal component adds to the total, eggs add 2g of carbs, edamame 12g, and macaroni 43g.

Same should be done for protein, we require at least 20 grams of protein,  Eggs add 17g, edamame adds 12g, and macaroni adds 8g.

and lastly we don't want more than 50 grams of fat,  Eggs add 14g, edamame add 6g and macaroni 1g.

Answer:

x is equal to 6

Step-by-step explanation:

4x=24

divide both sides by 4

4 eliminates 4 leaving x behind

4 divides 24 making x =6

Differentiate between interest and interest rate​

Answer:

<h3 /><h3><em>Interest:</em></h3>

<em>Interest is the cost of borrowing money, and the money you earn from your savings.</em>

<h3 /><h3><em>Interest rate</em></h3>

<em>Interest rates indicate this cost or return as a percentage of the amount you are borrowing or lending (since you are “lending” your savings to the </em><em>bank)</em>

Question:
aivan3 [116]

Answer:

part A) The scale factor of the sides (small to large) is 1/2

part B) Te ratio of the areas (small to large) is 1/4

part C) see the explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

Part A) Determine the scale factor of the sides (small to large).

we know that

The dilation is a non rigid transformation that produce similar figures

If two figures are similar, then the ratio of its corresponding sides is proportional

so

Let

z ----> the scale factor

\frac{CB}{C'B'}=\frac{CD}{C'D'}=\frac{BD}{B'D'}

The scale factor is equal to

z=\frac{CB}{C'B'}

substitute

z=\frac{4}{8}

simplify

z=\frac{1}{2}

Part B) What is the ratio of the areas (small to large)?

<em>Area of the small triangle</em>

A=\frac{1}{2}(2)(4)=4\ units^2

<em>Area of the large triangle</em>

A=\frac{1}{2}(4)(8)=16\ units^2

ratio of the areas (small to large)

ratio=\frac{4}{16}=\frac{1}{4}

Part C) Write a generalization about the ratio of the sides and the ratio of the areas of similar figures

In similar figures the ratio of its corresponding sides is proportional and this ratio is called the scale factor

In similar figures the ratio of its areas is equal to the scale factor squared
