Answer: 6.71

=======================================

Work Shown:

The longest horizontal portion of length 6 breaks up into two equal pieces of length 3 each. Focus on the smaller right triangle on the right hand side. This right triangle has legs of 3 and 6. The hypotenuse is x.

Use the pythagorean theorem with a = 3, b = 6, c = x to find the value of x

a^2 + b^2 = c^2

3^2 + 6^2 = x^2

9 + 36 = x^2

45 = x^2

x^2 = 45

x = sqrt(45)

x = 6.7082039

x = 6.71

A snack food manufacturer buys corn for tortilla chips from two cooperatives, one in Iowa and one in Illinois. The price per uni

aleksandrvk [35]

Answer:

a. x1 = No. of units to purchase from Iowa

x2 = No. of units to purchase from Illinois

b. Min 6x1 + 5.5x2

c. x1 + x2 ≥ 12000

x1 ≤ 8000

x2 ≥ 6000

Step-by-step explanation:

a. We can consider the variables x1 and x2 as:

x1 = No. of units to purchase from Iowa

x2 = No. of units to purchase from Illinois

b. Price per unit of Iowa corn = $6

Price per unit of Illinois corn = $5.5

Objective function that would minimize the total cost can be written as:

Min 6x1 + 5.5x2

c. The manufacturer needs at least 12000 units of corn which means that the combined number of units from Iowa and Illinois must be greater than or equal to 12000. So, we can write:

x1 + x2 ≥ 12000

The Iowa cooperative can supply up to 8000 units which means that the value of x1 must not be greater than 8000. So, we can write:

x1 ≤ 8000

Similarly, the Illinois cooperative can supply at least 6000 units which means that the value of x2 must not be less than 6000. So, we can write:

x2 ≥ 6000.

The constraints for these conditions are:

x1 + x2 ≥ 12000

x1 ≤ 8000

x2 ≥ 6000

Answer:

3.88 nm

Step-by-step explanation:

The angle at Port Latta between the actual direction of travel and the destination at Lookout Point is 90° -75° = 15°. The sine function relates the angle, the side opposite, and the hypotenuse of a right triangle, so you have ...

sin(15°) = (distance to Lookout Point)/(15 nm)

Solving for the desired distance, we have ...

distance to Lookout Point = (15 nm)sin(15°) = 3.88 nm

The yacht is 3.88 nautical miles from Lookout Point.
