A candy manufacturer makes two types of special candy, say A and B. Candy A consists of equal parts of dark chocolate and carame

l and Candy B consists of two parts of dark chocolate and one part of walnut. The company has in stock 430 kilograms of caramel, 360 kilograms of dark chocolate, and 210 kilograms of walnuts. The company sells Candy A for P285 and Candy B for P260 per kilograms. How much of each candy should the manufacturer produce to maximize profit?

If we let x as candy A
y as candy B
a as dark chocolate in candy a
b as dark chocolate in candy b
c as caramel
d as walnut
P as profit
we have the equations:
a + c = x
2b + d = y
a + 2b ≤ 360
c ≤ 430
d ≤ 210
P = 285x + 260y

This is an optimization problem which involves linear programming. It can be solved by graphical method or by algebraic solution.
P = 285(a + c) + 260(2b +d)
If we assume a = b
Then a = 120, 2b = 240
P = 285(120 + 120) + 260(240 + 120)
P = 162000
candy A should be = 240
candy B should be = 360

Consider the following equation, bh+hr=25 when solving for r
Komok [63]
Solve for r.

You want to get r by itself on one side on the equal sign.

bh + hr = 25

Subtract bh from both sides.

hr = 25 - bh

Divide h on both sides.

r = 25 - bh / h

The two h's cancel each other out.

r = 25 - b

Hope this helps!

Helga [31]

Answer:

  1. reflection across line m
  2. rotation about point A'

Step-by-step explanation:

The problem statement tells you exactly what the transformations are.

The first transformation is reflection across line m.

The second transformation is rotation about point A'.

_____

These are both rigid transformations, so ΔABC ≅ A'B''C''.

Which is a stretch of an exponential growth function? f(x) = Two-thirds (two-thirds) Superscript x f(x) = Three-halves (two-thir
Arte-miy333 [17]

Answer:

f(x) = Three-halves (three-halves) Superscript x

f(x) = Two-thirds (three-halves) Superscript x

Step-by-step explanation:

Since, a function in the form of f(x) = ab^x

Where, a and b are any constant,

is called exponential function,

There are two types of exponential function,

  • Growth function : If b > 1,
  • Decay function : if 0 < b < 1,

Since, In

f(x) =\frac{2}{3}(\frac{2}{3})^x

\frac{2}{3} < 1

Thus, it is a decay function.

in f(x) =\frac{3}{2}(\frac{2}{3})^x

\frac{2}{3} < 1

Thus, it is a decay function.

in f(x) =\frac{3}{2}(\frac{3}{2})^x

\frac{3}{2} > 1

Thus, it is a growth function.

in f(x) =\frac{2}{3}(\frac{3}{2})^x

\frac{3}{2} > 1

Thus, it is a growth function.
