Answer:
-7
Step-by-step explanation:
Hope it helped!
Let the number of large bookcases be x and number of small bookcases be y, then
Maximise P = 80x + 50y;
subkect to:
6x + 2y ≤ 24
x, y ≥ 2
The corner points are (2, 2), (2, 6), (3.333, 2)
For (2, 2): P = 80(2) + 50(2) = 160 + 100 = 260
For (2, 6): P = 80(2) + 50(6) = 160 + 300 = 460
For (3.333, 2): P = 80(3.333) + 50(2) = 266.67 + 100 = 366.67
Therefore, for maximum profit, he should produce 2 large bookcases and 6 small bookcases.
Set up fractions and solve them
Answer: 7 laps
Step-by-step explanation:
The athlete planned to run 3 miles
1 lap = 3/7 miles
x laps = 3 miles
by proportion :
x × 3/7miles = 3 miles
x = 3 ÷ 3/7
x = 3 x 7/3
x = 7
Therefore: the athlete will run 7 laps
