Answer:

a pair of Tap shoes costs $169.50

a pair of Point shoes costs $319.00

a pair of Ballet shoes costs $159.50

Step-by-step explanation:

first tell your teacher, that the problem description is misleading.

as a shoe store has more than one pair per type. so, "all the shoes" would mean all the sites in the store. but that is for sure not meant here.

what your teacher hopefully meant was that the total price of buying one pair of each of the shoe types is $648.

and your teacher was hopefully asking for the price of pairs of shoes, and not actually single shoes.

my solution bases on these assumptions.

so, we got Tap (t), Point (p) and Ballet (b) shoes.

buying one pair each is

t + p + b = 648

now we know some other information.

p = 2×b (Point shoes are double the price of Ballet shoes)

t = b + 10 (Tap $10 more than Ballet)

so, we can replace t and p by expressions of b and get

b + 10 + 2×b + b = 648

4×b + 10 = 648

4×b = 638

b = 159.50

p = 2×159.50 = 319.00

t = 159.50 + 10 = 169.50

Jerome burns 4 cal/min walking and 10 cal/min running. He walks between 10 and 20 min each day and runs between 30 and 45 min ea
erik [133]

Answer:

20 minutes should spend on walking and 30 minutes on running.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represents the minutes spent on walking and y represents the minutes spent on running,

∵ He burns 4 cal/min walking and 10 cal/min running,

So, the total calories burnt,

Z = 4x + 10y

Which has to be maximised.

Now, he walks between 10 and 20 min each day,

i.e. 10 < x < 20,

Also, he runs between 30 and 45 min each day,

i.e. 30 <  y < 45,

By graphing 10 < x < 20 and 30 <  y < 45,

We obtained the vertices of feasible region,

(10, 45), (20, 45), (10, 30) and (20, 30)

At (10, 45),

Z = 4(10) + 10(45) = 40 + 450 = 490,

At (20, 45),

Z = 4(20) + 10(45) = 80 + 450 = 530,

At (10, 30),

Z = 4(10) + 10(30) = 40 + 300 = 340,

At (20, 30)

Z = 4(20) + 10(30) = 80 + 300 = 380

Hence, maximum calories is 530 when 20 minutes spent on walking and 30 minutes spent on running.
