Answer: Option D, the actual speed of the wind is 16km/h.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's define two quantities:

Sp = Speed of the plane, that we assume it is constant.

Sw = Speed of the wind, that we assume it is constant.

When the plane flies with the wind, the total speed will be

Sp + Sw = 251km/h.

When the plane flies against the wind, the total speed will be:

Sp - Sw = 219km/h.

Then we have two equations:

Sp + Sw = 251km/h

Sp - Sw =  219km/h.

We want to find the speed of the wind, so we should isolate the speed of the plane in one of the equations, let's isolate it in the second equation:

Sp = 219km/h + Sw.

Now we can replace this into the other equation:

Sp + Sw = 251km/h.

(219km/h + Sw) + Sw = 251km/h.

2*Sw + 219km/h = 251km/h

2*Sw = 251km/h - 219km/h = 32km/h

Sw = (32km/h)/2 = 16km/h.

This is really close to the option B, but is not equal, so the correct answer will be D, none of the above.

MissTica

Answer:

  (c, m) = (45, 10)

Step-by-step explanation:

A dozen White Chocolate Blizzards generate more income and take less flour than a dozen Mint Breezes, so production of those should clearly be maximized. Making 45 dozen Blizzards does not use all the flour, so the remaining flour can be used to make Breezes.

Maximum Blizzards that can be made: 45 dz. Flour used: 45×5 oz = 225 oz.

The remaining flour is ...

  315 oz -225 oz = 90 oz

This is enough for (90 oz)/(9 oz/dz) = 10 dozen Mint Breezes. This is in the required range of 2 to 15 dozen.

Kelly should make 45 dozen White Chocolate Blizzards and 10 dozen Mint Breezes: (c, m) = (45, 10).

__

In the attached graph, we have reversed the applicable inequalities so the feasible region shows up white, instead of shaded with 5 different colors. The objective function is the green line, shown at the point that maximizes income. (c, m) ⇔ (x, y)
