A cereal company makes a cereal from two ingredients: wheat and oats. Each ingredient provides two essential nutrients: vitamin A and vitamin B. The company wants to know how many ounces of wheat and oats to include in each box of cereal so that the minimum requirements of 48 milligrams of vitamin A and 20 milligrams of vitamin B are satisfied. An ounce of wheat provides 10.5 milligrams of vitamin A and 2.4 milligrams of vitamin B. An ounce of oats provides 6 milligrams of vitamin A and 1.8 milligram of vitamin B. An ounce of wheat costs $0.05 and an ounce of oats costs $0.10. The company wants to minimize the total cost of production.
Find the solution to this problem using the Simplex method.

Answer 1

Answer:

z (min ) = 0.4167    $

x = 8,33 oz

y = 0

Step-by-step explanation:

Table:

                              Vitamin A        Vitamin B         Cost $/oz

Wheat  (x)                10.5                    2.4                   0.05          

Oats     (y)                 6                       1.8                    0.10          

Requirements           48 (mg)              20 (mg)

Requirements           1,693 (oz)           0,7054 (oz)

The problem is minimized z subject to two constraint

z  =  0.05*x  + 0.1*y   to minimize

Subject to:

Requirement  of  Vitamin A

10.5*x + 6 * y  ≥  48

Requirement  of  Vitamin B

2.4*x   + 1.8*y ≥  20

x≥0  y≥0

Using  the on-line solver AtomZmaths and after 3 iterations the solution is:

z (min ) = 0.4167    $

x = 8,33 oz

y = 0

A scout troop is going hiking. They have 75 energy bars, 35 energy drinks, and 45 bottles of water. If each scout gets the same amount of supplies with none left over, what is the largest possible # of scouts in the troop?

Answers

Answer:

Well to this you would have to simplify the ratio first

75:35:45

That can be

15:7:9

So that means thayt each troop would get 15 enegery bars, 7 drinks and 9 bottles of water

Well if you were to keep repeating that process or just do a proportion you would get 5 total troops.

15:7:9

75:35:45

15*5 is 75

7*5 is 35

9*5=45

So 5 troops

Answer:

the perimeter is 30ft

Step-by-step explanation:

a square + b square = c square

so first we find your missing side

this is how we solve for that:

a square + 12 squared = 13 squared

a squared + 144 = 169

now we do 169 - 144 = 25

now to find the missing side it is 25 square root which is 5

now that we have found the missing side lengths let's find the perimeter which is: 5 + 12 + 13 = 30 ft

How many teams of at least 5 students and at most 7 students can be chosen from 15 students?​

Answers

5 Students = 3 Teams

7 Students = 2 Teams

To find out the answer we can use the following equation

[tex]\frac{Total}{Students} \\\\\frac{15}{5} = 3 \\\frac{15}{7} = 2.14... \\[/tex]

If you run into a decimal number, like we did when we had a team of 7, you can just round down!

Answer:

3

Step-by-step explanation:

least students= 5

maximum students = 7

total number of students = 15

no: of grps if 5 students per grp = 15/5 = 3

no: of grps if 7 students per grp = 15/7 = 2.14 ~ 2

However, if they ask us how many teams in final we can say 3 as it is the maximum number of groups that can be formed b a grp of 15 students ... if we make 7 students per grp... one would be left out .

There's no specific formula to find the square root of a number, however we can find the square root of a number by the following methods:

i) By Prime Factorisation

ii) By Long Division

iii) By Repeated subtraction method

By Prime Factorisation:

Step I: Obtain the given number.

Step II: Reduce the given number into prime factors by successive division.

Step III: Now make pairs of prime factors in such a way that both the factors in each pair are equal.

Step IV: Take one factor from each pair and find the product of these factors.

Step V: The product obtained by multiplying the factors is the required square root.

✏ Long Division:

Step 1: Firstly, we place a bar on every pair of digits starting from the unit digit. If the number of digits in it is odd, we put a bar on the single-digit too.

Step 2: Now we find the largest number whose square is less than or equal to the 1st number.

Step 3: Now we bring down the next bar number.

Step 4: For new divisor, we add the divisor & quotient.

Step 5: Number taken is the product of a new divisor and this digit is equal to or less than the new dividend.

✏ Repeated subtraction method:

In this method, the given number is subtracted by 1, 3, 5, 7,… at every step till you get zero at the end. The number of steps in the solution is the required square root.

Answers

Answer:

f(X)=2x+3

Step-by-step explanation:

f(4) = 2*4 + 3

= 8 + 3

Answer and Step-by-step explanation:

For this function, we need to plug in 4 for x to find out what the value of f(x) is when x is equal to 4.

f(4) = 2(4) + 3

= 8 + 3

= 11

The answer is 11, when the value is f(4).
