Larissa plans to bake at most 10 loaves of bread. She makes x loaves of banana bread that sell for $1.25 each and y loaves of nu

t bread that sell for $1.50 each. She hopes to make at least $24 in sales. Write and graph a system of inequalities for this situation. What does the graph show?

Answer:

1) The system of inequalities are;

x × 1.25 + y × 1.5 ≥ 24

x + y ≤ 10

Please find attached the required graph of the two inequalities ,created with Microsoft Excel

2) The graph of inequality shows that Larissa cannot to make less than 10 loafs of bread and sell them for over $24 at the given prices of each loaf of bread

Step-by-step explanation:

1) The maximum number of loaves Larissa plans to make = 10

The price at which she sells each of x loaves of banana bread = $1.25

The price at which she sells each of y loaves of nut bread = $1.50

The total amount she hopes to make = $24

The system of inequalities are;

x × 1.25 + y × 1.5 ≥ 24

x + y ≤ 10

Making y the subject of both inequalities gives;

For the first inequality, we have,

y ≥ 24/1.5 - 1.25/1.5·x which gives;

y ≥ 16 - 5/6·x

For the second inequality, we have,

y ≤ 10 - x

Please find attached the required graph of the two inequalities

2) From the attached graph of inequality, created with Microsoft Excel, it shows that it is not possible for Larissa to make less than 10 loafs of bread and at the same time sell them for over $24 if the price of each banana bread is $1.25 and the price of each nut bread is $1.50.

Is 1/2 greater than 1/3

storchak [24]

To find whether 1/2 is greater than 1/3, it is important to convert them to decimals. By converting them to decimals, we can visually understand the number that is greater.
1/2 = 0.5
1/3 = 0.33
So from the above deduction we can conclude that 1/2 is greater than 1/3. I hope the procedure is not that complicated for you to understand. You can always use this procedure for finding the answer to similar kind of questions in future without requiring any help from anyone else.

Help calculus module 8 DBQ<br><br> please show work

igor_vitrenko [27]

1. The four subintervals are [0, 2], [2, 3], [3, 7], and [7, 8]. We construct trapezoids with "heights" equal to the lengths of each subinterval - 2, 1, 4, and 1, respectively - and the average of the corresponding "bases" equal to the average of the values of $R(t)$ at the endpoints of each subinterval. The sum is then

$\dfrac{R(0)+R(2)}2(2-0)+\dfrac{R(2)+R(3)}2(3-2)+\dfrac{R(3)+R(7)}2(7-3)+\dfrac{R(7)+R(8)}2(7-8)=\boxed{24.83}$

which is measured in units of gallons, hence representing the amount of water that flows into the tank.

2. Since $R$ is differentiable, the mean value theorem holds on any subinterval of its domain. Then for any interval $[a,b]$ , it guarantees the existence of some $c\in(a,b)$ such that

$\dfrac{R(b)-R(a)}{b-a)=R'(c)$

Computing the difference quotient over each subinterval above gives values of 0.275, 0.3, 0.3, and 0.26. But just because these values are non-zero doesn't guarantee that there is definitely no such $c$ for which $R'(c)=0$ . I would chalk this up to not having enough information.

3. $R(t)$ gives the rate of water flow, and $R(t)\approx W(t)$ , so that the average rate of water flow over [0, 8] is the average value of $W(t)$ , given by the integral

$R_{\rm avg}=\displaystyle\frac1{8-0}\int_0^8\ln(t^2+7)\,\mathrm dt$

If doing this by hand, you can integrate by parts, setting

$u=\ln(t^2+7)\implies\mathrm du=\dfrac{2t}{t^2+7}\,\mathrm dt$

$\mathrm dv=\mathrm dt\implies v=t$

$R_{\rm avg}=\displaystyle\frac18\left(t\ln(t^2+7)\bigg|_{t=0}^{t=8}-\int_0^8\frac{2t^2}{t^2+7}\,\mathrm dt\right)$

For the remaining integral, consider the trigonometric substitution $t=\sqrt 7\tan s$ , so that $\mathrm dt=\sqrt 7\sec^2s\,\mathrm ds$ . Then

$R_{\rm avg}=\displaystyle\ln71-\frac{\sqrt7}4\int_0^{\tan^{-1}(8/\sqrt7)}\frac{7\tan^2s}{7\tan^2s+7}\sec^2s\,\mathrm ds$

$R_{\rm avg}=\displaystyle\ln71-\frac{\sqrt7}4\int_0^{\tan^{-1}(8/\sqrt7)}\tan^2s\,\mathrm ds$

$R_{\rm avg}=\displaystyle\ln71-\frac{\sqrt7}4\int_0^{\tan^{-1}(8/\sqrt7)}(\sec^2s-1)\,\mathrm ds$

$R_{\rm avg}=\displaystyle\ln71-\frac{\sqrt7}4\left(\tan s-s\right)\bigg|_{s=0}^{s=\tan^{-1}(8/\sqrt7)}$

$R_{\rm avg}=\displaystyle\ln71-\frac{\sqrt7}4\left(\tan\left(\tan^{-1}\frac8{\sqrt7}\right)-\tan^{-1}\frac8{\sqrt7}\right)$

$\boxed{R_{\rm avg}=\displaystyle\ln71-2+\frac{\sqrt7}4\tan^{-1}\frac8{\sqrt7}}$

or approximately 3.0904, measured in gallons per hour (because this is the average value of $R$ ).

4. By the fundamental theorem of calculus,

$g'(x)=f(x)$

and $g(x)$ is increasing whenever $g'(x)=f(x)>0$ . This happens over the interval (-2, 3), since $f(x)=3$ on [-2, 0), and $-x+3>0$ on [0, 3).

5. First, by additivity of the definite integral,

$\displaystyle\int_{-2}^xf(t)\,\mathrm dt=\int_{-2}^0f(t)\,\mathrm dt+\int_0^xf(t)\,\mathrm dt$

Over the interval [-2, 0), we have $f(x)=3$ , and over the interval [0, 6], $f(x)=-x+3$ . So the integral above is

$\displaystyle\int_{-2}^03\,\mathrm dt+\int_0^x(-t+3)\,\mathrm dt=3t\bigg|_{t=-2}^{t=0}+\left(-\dfrac{t^2}2+3t\right)\bigg|_{t=0}^{t=x}=\boxed{6+3x-\dfrac{x^2}2}$
