Two kinds of crated cargo, A and B, are to be shipped by truck. Each crate of cargo A is 50 cubic feet in volume and weighs 200

pounds, whereas each crate of cargoB is 10 cubic feet in volume and weighs 360 pounds. The shipping company charges $75 per crate for cargo A and $100 per crate for cargo B. The truck has a maximum load limit of 7200 pounds and 1000 cubic feet. Write a system of inequalities that represent the constraints in this problem.
a. 50a+10b> 7200; 200a+360b> 1000; a> 0; b>0
b. 50a+10b<1000; 200a+360b < 7200; a> 0; b>0
c. 50a+10b7200; 200a +360b < 1000; a s 0; b< 0
d. 50a+ 10b> 1000; 200a+360b> 7200; a s 0; b<0

Answer:

The correct answer is option b)

50a+10b<1000; 200a+360b < 7200; a> 0; b>0

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that Two kind of crated cargo namely A and B to be shipped by truck.

<u>Cargo A:</u>

Volume of each crate of cargo A = 50 cubic ft

Weight of each crate of cargo A = 200 pounds

Let number of crates of cargo A to be shipped = a

Total volume of 'a' crates of cargo A = 50a cubic ft

Total weight of 'a' crates of cargo A = 200a pounds

<u>Cargo B:</u>

Volume of each crate of cargo B = 10 cubic ft

Weight of each crate of cargo B = 360 pounds

Let number of crates of cargo B to be shipped = b

Total volume of 'b' crates of cargo B = 10b cubic ft

Total weight of 'b' crates of cargo B = 360b

Total volume allowed in the truck is 1000 cubic ft

Total volume of 'a' crates of Cargo A and Total volume of 'b' crates of Cargo B = 50a+10b cubic ft (This sum should be less than volume of truck so that it can fit in the truck)

So, the inequality becomes

50a+10b ....... (1)

Total weight allowed (load limit) in the truck is 7200 pounds

Total weight of 'a' crates of Cargo A and Total weight of 'b' crates of Cargo B = 200a+360b cubic ft (This sum should be less than volume of truck so that it can fit in the truck)

So, the inequality becomes

200a+360b ....... (1)

And number of crates of cargo A and B are always a positive number.

So, a > 0 and b > 0.

So, the correct answer is option b.

<em>b. 50a+10b<1000; 200a+360b < 7200; a> 0; b>0</em>

Answers for both boxes please ​
sleet_krkn [62]

Answer:

x = -5  y = -3

Step-by-step explanation:

-3x + 2y = 9

multiply the 2nd equation by 3 to set it up for elimination

3(x - 3y)= 3(4)

3x-9y = 12

so now combine both to add

-3x + 2y = 9

3x - 9y = 12

Adding both gives you

-7y = 21

divide both by -7 and you get

y = -3

and you substitute y back into equation to get x

x - 3 (-3) = 4   gives you

x + 9 = 4

x = 4 - 9

x = -5

If α and β are the zeros of the quadratic polynomial f(x) = 3x2–4x + 5, find a polynomialwhose zeros are 2α + 3β and 3α + 2β.
Lelechka [254]

Answer:

\boxed{\sf \ \ \ 3x^2-20x+37\ \ \ }

Step-by-step explanation:

Hello,

a and b are the zeros, we can say that

f(x)=3(x^2-\dfrac{4}{3}x+\dfrac{5}{3}) = 3(x-a)(x-b)=3(x-(a+b)x+ab)

So we can say that

a+b=\dfrac{4}{3}\\ab=\dfrac{5}{3}

Now, we are looking for a polynomial where zeros are 2a+3b and 3a+2b

for instance we can write

(x-2a-3b)(x-3a-2b)=x^2-(2a+3b+3a+2b)x+(2a+3b)(3a+2b)\\= x^2-5(a+b)x+6a^2+6b^2+9ab+4ab

and we can notice that

a^2+b^2=(a+b)^2-2ab so

(x-2a-3b)(x-3a-2b)=x^2-5(a+b)x+6[(a+b)2-2ab]+13ab\\= x^2-5(a+b)x+6(a+b)^2+ab

it comes

x^2-5*\dfrac{4}{3}x+6(\dfrac{4}{3})^2+\dfrac{5}{3}

multiply by 3

3x^2-20x+2*16+5=3x^2-20x+37

Step-by-step explanation:

4/5=0.8

16/0.8=x/1

cross product

0.8*x=16*1

0.8x=16

x=16/0.8

x=20
