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

A circular pond has a radius of 10 meters there is an average of 2 frogs per square meter in the pond approximately how many fro
Y_Kistochka [10]
First, we need to find the area of the pond.
The formula for the area of a circle is: 3.14r^2
So, first of all, the radius is 10, and we need to square that, so 10 x 10 = 100.
There. Now, with the squared radius, we need to multiply that by pi.
100 x 3.14 = 314.
The area of the pond is 314 square meters.
Secondly, we need to find the number of frogs. If there are 2 frogs in each square meter, then 2 x 314 = 628.
There are 628 frogs in the pond.

In the diagram shown of circle A, tangent MB is drawn along with chords BAC and BF . Secant MFE intersects BAC at G. It is known
mote1985 [20]

Answer:

  • arc BF = 76°
  • ∠M = 31°
  • ∠BGE = 121°
  • ∠MFB = 111°

Step-by-step explanation:

(a) ∠FBM is the complement of ∠FBC, so is ...

  ∠FBM = 90° -52° = 38°

The measure of arc BF is twice this angle, so is ...

  arc BF = 2∠FBM = 2(38°)

  arc BF = 76°

__

(b) ∠M is half the difference between the measures of arcs BE and BF, so is ...

  ∠M = (1/2)(138° -76°) = 62°/2

  ∠M = 31°

__

(c) arc FC is the supplement to arc BF, so has measure ...

  arc FC = 180° -arc BF = 180° -76° = 104°

∠BGE is half the sum of arcs BE and FC, so is ...

  ∠BGE = (1/2)(arc BE +arc FC) = (138° +104°)/2

  ∠BGE = 121°

__

(d) ∠MFB is the remaining angle in ∆MFB, so has measure ...

  ∠MFB = 180° -∠M -∠FBM = 180° -31° -38°

  ∠MFB = 111°

Factor completely.<br> ​ <br> 18b−32<br> ​<br> Enter your answer in the boxes.<br><br> ___(___)
Kamila [148]
To factor completely 18b - 32, we factor out the common factor of the two terms and divide each of term by the common factor.

18b - 32 = 2(18b/2 - 32/2) = 2(9b - 16)
