You are in charge of purchases at the student-run used-book supply program at your college, and you must decide how many introdu

ctory calculus, history, and marketing texts should be purchased from students for resale. Due to budget limitations, you cannot purchase more than 700 of these textbooks each semester. There are also shelf-space limitations: Calculus texts occupy 2 units of shelf space each, history books 1 unit each, and marketing texts 4 units each, and you can spare at most 1,200 units of shelf space for the texts. If the used book program makes a profit of $10 on each calculus text, $4 on each history text, and $8 on each marketing text, how many of each type of text should you purchase to maximize profit? HINT [See Example 3.]

Answer:

  • Calculus texts: 600
  • History texts: 0
  • Marketing texts: 0

Step-by-step explanation:

Each Calculus text returns $10/2 = $5 per unit of shelf space. For History and Marketing texts, the respective numbers are $4/1 = $4 per unit, and $8/4 = $2 per unit. Using 1200 units of shelf space for 600 Calculus texts returns ...

  $5/unit × 1200 units = $6000 . . . profit

Any other use of units of shelf space will reduce profit.

Write the equation of the line perpendicular to y= 2/5x+6/6 that passes through the point (-2,6)
Oliga [24]
The line to find: y = mx + b
the line perpendicular to y= 2/5x+6/6 so it has the slope m × 2/5 = -1
thus the slope m = -5/2
the line passes through the point (-2,6) so:
6 = (-5/2)×(-2) + b so b = 1


the equation of the line is y = -5/2x +1

Find the total surface area of the figure below:
kow [346]

Answer:

95

Step-by-step explanation:

Formula -

Triangle Area - 1/2bh

Square - l x w

Triangle - 5 x 7 = 35/2 = 17.5

Since there are four triangle, we will multiply 17.5 x 4 which is equal to 70

Square  - 5 x 5 = 25

Now we add both 70 and 25 which is 95

So the total surface area is 95

Line E'F' has endpoints located at E'(1,0) and F'(1,3). Line EF was dilated by a scale of 1/2 from the orgin. Which statement de
Lerok [7]

Answer:

If line EF was dilated by a scale of 1/2 from the origin to get line E'F', then if line E'F' is dilated by a scale of 2 from the origin, EF is obtained. Also, the length of EF is double than the length of E'F'.

Dilation by a scale of 2 from the origin transforms point (x,y) into (2*x, 2*y)

E'(1,0) -> E(2,0)

F'(1, 3) ->F(2, 6)

length of E'F': 3

length of EF: 6
