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.
Answer:
y = (1/4)x
Step-by-step explanation:
"Direct variation" here signifies y = kx, where k is the constant of proportionality.
Then y = kx. Here we are to find k using the info that x = 12 and y = 3:
3 = k(12), or
k = 3/12, or k = 1/4
Then y = (1/4)x
The recipe calls for 736 milliliters of liquid in total.
