A manufacturer produces two types of bottled coffee drinks: cappuccinos and cafés au lait. Each bottle of cappuccino requires 6

ounces of coffee and 2 ounces of milk and earns a profit of $0.40. Each bottle of café au lait requires 4 ounces of coffee and 4 ounces of milk and earns a profit of $0.50. The manufacturer has 720 ounces of coffee and 400 ounces of milk available for production each day. To meet demand, the manufacturer must produce at least 80 coffee drinks each day. Let x = the number of cappuccino bottles and y = the number of café au lait bottles.

Answer:

  • <u><em>P = 0.40x + 0.50y</em></u>

Explanation:

The <em>objective function</em> is the function that you want to optimize: usually minimize in the case of costs, and maximize in the case of revenues or profits.

In this case, you know the <em>profits</em> that a manufacturer earns from two types of <em>bottled coffe drinks</em>: <em>cappuccinos</em> and <em>cafés au lait</em>.

Each bottle of <em>cappuccino earns a profit of $0.40</em> and each bottle of <em>café au lait earns a profit of $0.50</em>.

Then:

  • using the variable x for the number bottles of cappuccino produced, the profit earned from x bottles is 0.40x, and

  • using the variable y for the number of bottles of café au lait the produced, the profit earned from y bottles is 0.5y.

The total profit earned, P, is the sum of the profits earned from each type of bottled coffee drinks:

  • P = 0.40x + 0.50y

That is the <em>objective function</em>, i.e. the function that the manufacturer must try to maximize subject to the corresponding constraints.

2. A dice is rolled. A card is drawn from a deck of face cards (i.e. only Jack, Queen, King of each suit). A coin is flipped. a)
LekaFEV [45]
When you roll and even number, the probability of winning is 3/6 or 1/2.
When you want to draw a heart:
The sample space is 12. That is 3 faces and 4 suits. There are 4 hearts in this deck. The probability you get a heart is 4/12 or 1/3. 
When you want to toss a tail: 
Sample<span> space is 2, hea</span>d and tail. You do not win if you get a heads. The probability is 1/2. The probability of winning is 1/2 * 1/3 * 1/2 = 1/12 Then the probability of losing is 1-1/12 = 11/12

A bookkeeper has a balance of $83.92. If she collects $76.75
kotegsom [21]

Answer:

The bookkeeper already has a balance of 83.92.  She collects 76.75 so that's 83.92+76.75 which equals to 160.67.  Then she pays out 38.58 so that's a deduction to what she already has.  160.67-38.58=122.09.

SO the bookkeeper has $122.09 left.

The vertex angle of an isosceles triangle measure 40.whats the measure of the base angle?
Eddi Din [679]
I don't know if my answer is completely correct, but I think it's 100. All triangles add up to 180, and an isosceles triangle has 2 equal sides. 40 would be the 2 sides, and 180 subtracted from 80 equals 100.

If f(x)=6x^2 and g(x)=14x + 4 solve (g o f)(2)<br> Choices:<br> 340<br> 465<br> 336<br> 284
Law Incorporation [45]

The answer is 340

Explanation:

(g o f)(2) = g(f(2))

f(2) = 6(2)² = 24

g(f(2)) = g(24) = 14(24) + 4 = 336 + 4 = 340
