This may not be accurate but I think the blues, The name of this great American music probably originated with the 17th-century English expression “the blue devils,” for the intense visual hallucinations that can accompany severe alcohol withdrawal. Shortened over time to “the blues,” it came to mean a state of agitation or depression.Jan 4, 2013

Montano1993 [528]

In this text, it can be found many different features that the author uses in order to help readers understand more about pyramids. He tries to give extra information about different activities and the way Egyptians used to live. For example, here are some of it, the author wrote:

- In the year 3,200 B.C the Ancient Egyptians first developed early forms of writing.

- Hieroglyphics was the name of the type of writing the Egyptians used

- Medical books, calendars, stories, poems, and prayers were some of the things written on papyrus (a plant)

- They had strong beliefs on what religious thoughts were then, such as the Book of the Dead, which was a guide to the afterlife for dead souls.

Lisa is making cookies to sell at the Annual Dirt Bike Competition. A dozen oatmeal cookies require 3 cups of flour and 2 eggs.

just olya [345]

Answer:

Oatmeal cookies = 1 dozen

Sugar cookies = 7 dozen

Explanation:

Objective function:

Maximize: P = 3x + 2y

where

x = oatmeal cookies

y = sugar cookies

Constraints:

Since it takes 2 and 4 cups for oatmeal and sugar cookies respectively, and she has total 40 cups of sugar:

1) 3x+4y ≤ 40

The same for eggs:

2) 2x+y ≤ 20

She can make no more than 1 dozen oatmeal and 7 dozen sugar cookies:

3) x ≤ 1

4) y ≤ 7

Now graph these above four constraints equation( see the image below)

Now the corner points are :

(0,7), (1,7), (1,0), (0,0)

Put these corner points in objective function:

for (0,7) : P = ( 3×0 ) + ( 2×7 ) = 14

for (1,7) : P = ( 3×1 ) + ( 2×7 ) = 17

for (1,0) : P = ( 3×1 ) + ( 2×0 ) = 3

for (0,0) : P = ( 3×0 ) + ( 2×0 ) = 0

Since the maximum profit = 17 comes from the point (1,7), she should make 1 dozen of oatmeal cookies and 7 dozen of sugar cookies.
