Deluxe River Cruises operates a fleet of river vessels. The fleet has two types of vessels: A type-A vessel has 60 deluxe cabins

and 160 standard cabins, whereas a type-B vessel has 80 deluxe cabins and 120 standard cabins. Under a charter agreement with Odyssey Travel Agency, Deluxe River Cruises is to provide Odyssey with a minimum of 360 deluxe and 680 standard cabins for their 15-day cruise in May. It costs $42,000 to operate a type-A vessel and $51,000 to operate a type-B vessel for that period. How many of each type of vessel (x type-A and y type-B) should be used in order to keep the operating costs to a minimum

Answer: It should be used 2 for type-A and 3 for type-B to minimize the cost.

Step-by-step explanation: As it is stipulated, <u>x</u> relates to type-A and y to type-B.

Type-A has 60 deluxe cabins and B has 80. It is needed a minimum of 360 deluxe cabins, so:

60x + 80y ≤ 360

For the standard cabin, there are in A 160 and in B 120. The need is for 680, so:

160x + 120y ≤ 680

To calculate how many of each type you need:

60x + 80y ≤ 360

160x + 120y ≤ 680

Isolating x from the first equation:

x = \frac{360 - 80y}{60}

Substituing x into the second equation:

160(\frac{360 - 80y}{60}) + 120y = 680

-3200y+1800y = 10200 - 14400

1400y = 4200

y = 3

With y, find x:

x = \frac{360 - 80y}{60}

x = \frac{360 - 80.3}{60}

x = 2

To determine the cost:

cost = 42,000x + 51,000y

cost = 42000.2 + 51000.3

cost = 161400

To keep it in a minimun cost, it is needed 2 vessels of Type-A and 3 vessels of Type-B, to a cost of $161400

2 points) Sometimes a change of variable can be used to convert a differential equation y′=f(t,y) into a separable equation. One
Stells [14]

y'=(t+y)^2-1

Substitute u=t+y, so that u'=y', and

u'=u^2-1

which is separable as

\dfrac{u'}{u^2-1}=1

Integrate both sides with respect to t. For the integral on the left, first split into partial fractions:

\dfrac{u'}2\left(\frac1{u-1}-\frac1{u+1}\right)=1

\displaystyle\int\frac{u'}2\left(\frac1{u-1}-\frac1{u+1}\right)\,\mathrm dt=\int\mathrm dt

\dfrac12(\ln|u-1|-\ln|u+1|)=t+C

Solve for u:

\dfrac12\ln\left|\dfrac{u-1}{u+1}\right|=t+C

\ln\left|1-\dfrac2{u+1}\right|=2t+C

1-\dfrac2{u+1}=e^{2t+C}=Ce^{2t}

\dfrac2{u+1}=1-Ce^{2t}

\dfrac{u+1}2=\dfrac1{1-Ce^{2t}}

u=\dfrac2{1-Ce^{2t}}-1

Replace u and solve for y:

t+y=\dfrac2{1-Ce^{2t}}-1

y=\dfrac2{1-Ce^{2t}}-1-t

Now use the given initial condition to solve for C:

y(3)=4\implies4=\dfrac2{1-Ce^6}-1-3\implies C=\dfrac3{4e^6}

so that the particular solution is

y=\dfrac2{1-\frac34e^{2t-6}}-1-t=\boxed{\dfrac8{4-3e^{2t-6}}-1-t}

a pool is leaking water at a constant rate. The amount of water in the pool changes by -1 1/4 every hour. what is the total chan
malfutka [58]

The total change in the water in the pool after 2 1/2 hours given the rate of leakage is -3 1/8,

<h3>What are fractions?</h3>

A fraction is a non-integer. It is made up of numerators and denominators. A mixed fraction is made up of a whole number and a proper fraction. An example is 2 1/2.

<h3>What is the total change in the water?</h3>

The total change in the water = -1 1/4 x 2 1/2

= -5/4 x 5/2 = -25/8 = -3 1/8
