Given the linear programming problem, use the method of corners to determine where the minimum occurs and give the minimum value

algol [13]

Answer:

Minimum value of function $C=x+10y$ is 63 occurs at point (3,6).

Step-by-step explanation:

To minimize :

$C=x+10y$

Subject to constraints:

$x\leq 3---(1)\\y\leq 9---(2)\\x+y\geq 9----(3)\\x\geq 0\\y\geq 0$

Eq (1) is in blue in figure attached and region satisfying (1) is on left of blue line

Eq (2) is in green in figure attached and region satisfying (2) is below the green line

Considering $x+y\geq 9$ , corresponding coordinates point to draw line are (0,9) and (9,0).

Eq (3) makes line in orange in figure attached and region satisfying (3) is above the orange line

Feasible region is in triangle ABC with common points A(0,9), B(3,9) and C(3,6)

Now calculate the value of function to be minimized at each of these points.

$C=x+10y$

at A(0,9)

$C=0+10(9)\\C=90$

at B(3,9)

$C=3+10(9)\\C=93$

at C(3,6)

$C=3+10(6)\\C=63$

Minimum value of function $C=x+10y$ is 63 occurs at point C (3,6).

After the booster club sold 40 hotdogs at a football game, it had 90$ in profit. After the next game, it had sold a total of 80

sergiy2304 [10]

Let's first establish what we already know for this problem.

x = total number of hotdogs sold
y = total profit from total sales of hotdogs

Let's also establish the other equations which we will require in order to solve this problem.

Equation No. 1 -
Profit for 40 hotdogs = $90 profit

Equation No. 2 -
Profit for 80 hotdogs = $210 profit

STEP-BY-STEP SOLUTION

From this, we can use the formula y = mx + b & substitute the values for x & y from one of the two previous equations into the formula in order to obtain the values of m & b for the final equation. Here is an example of the working out as displayed below:

Firstly, using the first or second equation, we make either m or b the subject. Here I have used the first equation and made m the subject:

Equation No. 1 -
y = mx + b
90 = m ( 40 ) + b
40m = 90 - b
m = ( 90 - b ) / 40

Now, make b the subject in the second equation as displayed below:

Equation No. 2 -
y = mx + b
210 = m ( 80 ) + b
210 = 80m + b
b = 210 - 80m

Then, substitute m from the first equation into the second equation.

Equation No. 2 -
b = 210 - 80m
b = 210 - 80 [ ( 90 - b ) / 40 ]
b = 210 - [ 80 ( 90 - b ) / 40 ]
b = 210 - 2 ( 90 - b )
b = 210 - 180 - 2b
b - 2b = 30
- b = 30
b = - 30

Now, substitute b from the second equation into the first equation.

Equation No. 1 -
m = ( 90 - b ) / 40
m = ( 90 - ( - 30 ) / 40
m = ( 90 + 30 ) / 40
m = 120 / 40
m = 3

Through this, we have established that:

m = 3
b = - 30

Therefore, the final equation to model the final profit, y, based on the number of hotdogs sold, x, is as follows:

y = mx + b
y = ( 3 )x + ( - 30 )

ANSWER:
y = 3x - 30

An airline promotion to business travelers is based on the assumption that two-thirds of business travelers use a laptop compute

skad [1K]

Answer:

a

The null hypothesis is $H_o : p = 0.67$

The alternative hypothesis is $H_a : p \ne 0.67$

b

The sample proportion is $\^ p = 0.65$

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question we are told that

The sample size is n = 546

The number of people that use a laptop overnight is $k = 355$

The population proportion is $p = \frac{2}{3} = 0.67$

Generally

The null hypothesis is $H_o : p = 0.67$

The alternative hypothesis is $H_a : p \ne 0.67$

Gnerally the sample proportion is mathematically represented as

$\^ p = \frac{ k}{n}$

=> $\^ p = \frac{ 355}{546}$

=> $\^ p = 0.65$

True or false? If you took a true "if-then" statement and reversed the clauses, the new statement would also be true.

Hatshy [7]

Reversing the clauses of an "if-then" statement only sometimes makes the new statement true, so it isn't true or false. For example, reversing the clauses of "if 1=x, then x=1" makes the new statement true, but reversing the clauses of "if x=2, then |x|=2" doesn't.
