Step-by-step explanation:

this is a linear programming problem.

the objective is to maximize profit

let the chocolate be x

and cookies be y

Maximize

2.5x+2y=P

constraint milk

3x+y=9------------------1

constraint flour

2x+4y=16----------------2

solving 1 and 2

3x+y=9

2x+4y=16

multiply 1 by 2 and 2  3 to eliminate x we have

  6x+2y=18

 6x+12y=48

-0-10x=-30

10y=30

y=30/10

y=3

put y= 3 in eqn 1 we have

3x+3=9

3x=9-3

3x=6

x=6/3

x=2

two trays of chocolate

three trays of cookies

2.5x+2y=P

2.5(2)+2(3)=P

5+6=P

P=$11

Need help fast don't understand both A and B show work please
Shkiper50 [21]
Problem A
Usually the number of bits in a byte is 8 or 16 or 32 and recently 64. You don't have to write a formula to restrict it to this number of bits. You are not asked to do so. The general formula is 2^n - 1 for the problem of Millie and her golden keys. Somehow the system can be made to choose the right number of bits. Apple IIe s for example, used 8 bits and there was a location that told the processor that fact.

2^n - 1 <<<<< Answer

Problem B
In this case n = 4
2^n - 1 = 2^4 - 1 = 16 - 1 = 15


Millie can collect 15 keys <<<<<< Answer
