The answer is 3. have a good day
The second constraint is the same as the objective function, so your problem boils down to finding integer solutions to
.. 3x1 +5x2 = 36
There are 3 solutions. They are (x1, x2) = (12, 0), (7, 3), (2, 6)
The value of the objective function there is (obviously) 36.
Really, we don't need to use that much math--we can use logic instead. Since the two congruent sides must be longer than 30in, the total has to be greater than 60in (the longest side plus the congruent sides.) So for our answer, we want the smallest total that is above sixty, which in this case is 72.44in.
Hope I helped, and let me know if you have any questions :) I can explain the real math if you want, it was just unnecessary here.
Answer:
$196
Step-by-step explanation:
Lets assume,
cost of a belt = 'x'
cost of a pair of pants = 'y'
Now, According to the question;
- x + y = 490;
- cost of a bag = twice the cost of belt = 2x;
- cost of a pair of pants = twice the cost of bag
⇒ y = 2×2x ⇔ 4x
hence, by subtituting the values in equation' we get;
⇒ x + 4x = 490
⇒ 5x = 490
⇒ x = 98
So, the difference between the cost of the pair of pants and the bag ;
⇒ y - 2x
⇒ 4x - 2x
⇒ 2x = 2×98 = 196.
