A company manufactures two products X and Y. Each product has to be processed in three departments: welding, assembly and painti

ng. Each unit of X spends 2 hours in the welding department, 3 hours in assembly and 1 hour in painting. The corresponding times for a unit of Y are 3, 2 and 1 hours respectively. The employee hours available in a month are 1,500 for the welding department, 1,500 in assembly and 550 in painting. The contribution to profits are 100 USD for product X and 120 USD for product Y. What is the objective function (Z) to be maximised in this linear programming problem (where Z is total profit in USD)? (note : means =)

Answer:

100x+120y = z

z= $ 63000

Step-by-step explanation:

Product               Welding          Assembly       Painting                Cont. to profit

X                              2x hours            3x hours          1xhour         =        $100x

Y                              3y hours            2y hours           1y hour        =       $120y

<u>                                                                                                 </u>

Total hours          1500 hours        1500 hours     550 hours

available

Let X represent product X

Let Y represent Product Y

2x + 3y = 1500

x + y = 550

y= 550-x

2x + 3(550-x) = 1500

2x + 1650- 3x = 1500

150 = x

y = 550-150

y = 400

Objective Function Z = 100x + 120y

Z = 100(150) + 120( 400)

Z = 15000+48000

Z = $63000

The number 2^1993 + 3^1993 is a multiple of 5. What is the units digit of the quotient (2^1993 + 3^1993)/5?
Ad libitum [116K]

Answer: The unit digit of the quotient is 1.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the number 2^1993 + 3^1993 is a multiple of 5, this means that no matter the value of the answer to the equation, the last digit will be 5 (we call the last digit of any number its "unit digit").

Since the unit digit of 2^1993 + 3^1993 is 5, if the unit digit is divided by 5 i.e 5/5, it will give us 1.

We will only consider the last digits of the multiple of 5 as our numerator

Anna35 [415]

Answer:

$26

Step-by-step explanation:

In the picture attached, the table, the plot and the line of best fit are shown. There we can see the next equation:

y = 0.177x + 25.936

where x is the total dollar amount of her customers’ bills and then y is her total daily wages.

This means that even if she serves no customers (x = 0) she will earn $26  ($25.936 rounded to the nearest dollar)  for each day of work.
