Answer:

Option A.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x be the number of trays of corn muffins and y be the number of trays of bran muffins.

He makes $3.00 profit per tray of corn muffins and $2.00 profit per tray of bran muffins.

Objective function: Z=3x+2y

According to the the given information:

                      Corn muffins     Bran muffins                Total    

Milk                         4                        2                            16

Wheat flour            3                         3                            15

Subject to the constraints are

4x+2y\leq 16

3x+3y\leq 15

x\geq 0,y\geq 0

Draw the graph of above qualities as shown below.

The vertices of feasible region are (0,0), (0,5), (3,2) and (4,0).

Point         Z=3x+2y

(0,0)                0

(0,5)                10

(3,2)                13

(4,0)                12

The profit is maximum at x=3 and y=2.

3 trays of corn muffins and 2 trays of bran muffins.

Therefore, the correct option is A.

Petra jogs 5 miles in 40 minutes at the rate how long would it take her to jog 11 miles
KatRina [158]
88 minutes (1 hour and 28 mins)

Since 5 miles takes 40 minutes, multiplying both numbers by 2 gets you to 10 miles in 80 minutes. To get the extra 1 more miles you have to find the unit rate

5 miles in 40 minutes : divided both numbers by 5 to get
1 mile in 8 minutes
add the one mile in 8 minutes to the 10 miles in 80 mins and you get 11 miles in 88 minutes
