Answer:

2 hours 11 minutes

Step-by-step explanation:

Each hour Sally can paint 1/3 rooms, Steve can paint 1/8 rooms.

If they work together, each hour they can paint 1/3 + 1/8 = 11/24 rooms.

So They will take 1/(11/24) = 24/11 = 2.18 hours to paint a whole room.

2.18 hours = 2 hours 0.18*60 minutes

0.18 * 60 = 11

Answer: 2 hours 11 minutes

Deluxe River Cruises operates a fleet of river vessels. The fleet has two types of vessels: A type-A vessel has 60 deluxe cabins
bixtya [17]

Answer: It should be used 2 for type-A and 3 for type-B to minimize the cost.

Step-by-step explanation: As it is stipulated, <u>x</u> relates to type-A and y to type-B.

Type-A has 60 deluxe cabins and B has 80. It is needed a minimum of 360 deluxe cabins, so:

60x + 80y ≤ 360

For the standard cabin, there are in A 160 and in B 120. The need is for 680, so:

160x + 120y ≤ 680

To calculate how many of each type you need:

60x + 80y ≤ 360

160x + 120y ≤ 680

Isolating x from the first equation:

x = \frac{360 - 80y}{60}

Substituing x into the second equation:

160(\frac{360 - 80y}{60}) + 120y = 680

-3200y+1800y = 10200 - 14400

1400y = 4200

y = 3

With y, find x:

x = \frac{360 - 80y}{60}

x = \frac{360 - 80.3}{60}

x = 2

To determine the cost:

cost = 42,000x + 51,000y

cost = 42000.2 + 51000.3

cost = 161400

To keep it in a minimun cost, it is needed 2 vessels of Type-A and 3 vessels of Type-B, to a cost of $161400
