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:
That is the <em>objective function</em>, i.e. the function that the manufacturer must try to maximize subject to the corresponding constraints.
She says “I apologise” because she feels bad that she made a bad smell and she says “excuse me” because she wants you to accept her apology
It takes the son one and half hours to clean the house. To find this you need the equations F+S=2 and F+1=S. (F=father and S=son) You take the F+1 and substitute it in for S in F+S to get F+(F+1)=2. Then you combined like factors, 2F+1=2, and simplify to get F=.5hr. After this you plug .5 in to F+1=S to get (.5)+1=S, meaning it takes the son 1.5 hour to clean the house.
1a) f(x) = I x+2 I. This is a piece-wise graph ( V form)
x = 0 →f(x) =2 (intercept y-axis)
x = -2→f(x) = 0 (intercept x-axis)
x = -3→f(x) = 1 (don't forget this is in absolute numbers)
x = -4→f(x) = 2 (don't forget this is in absolute numbers)
Now you can graph the V graph
1b) Translation: x to shift (-3) units and y remains the same, then
f(x-3) = I x - 3 + 2 I = I x-1 I
the V graph will shift one unit to the right, keeping the same y. Proof:
f(x) = I x-1 I . Intercept x-axis when I x-1 I = 0, so x= 1
