A bicycle manufacturer makes mountain bikes and road bikes. Each mountain bike requires 2 units of steel and 6 units of aluminum in its frame and 12 special components for the hub, sprocket, and gear assembly. Each road bike requires 5 units each of steel and aluminum for its frame and 5 of the special components. Shipments are such that steel is limited to 114 units per day, aluminum is limited to 142 units per day, and the special components are limited to 214 units per day. If the profits are $500 on each mountain bike and $400 on each road bike, how many of each should be produced to yield the maximum profit?

- For a given week, Debra's Coffee House has available 1728 ounces of A grade coffee and 1760 ounces of B grade coffee. These are blended into 1-pound packages as follows: an economy blend that contains 2 ounces of A grade coffee and 10 ounces of B grade coffee, and a superior blend that contains 9 ounces of A grade coffee and 2 ounces of B grade coffee. (The remainder of each blend is made of filler ingredients.) There is a $3 profit on each economy blend package sold and a $4 profit on each superior blend package sold. Assuming that the coffee house is able to sell as many blends as it makes, how many packages of each blend should it make to maximize its profit for the week?arrow_forward1.

Each bus can transport 70 students, requires 5 chaperones, and costs $1,400 to rent. Each van can transport 10 students, requires 1 chaperone, and costs $90 to rent. Since there are 700 students in the senior class that may be eligible to go on the trip, the officers must plan to accommodate at least 700 students. Since only 60 parents have volunteered to serve as chaperones, the officers must plan to use at most 60 chaperones. How many vehicles of each type should the officers rent in order to minimize the transportation costs? What are the minimal transportation costs? The officers should rent buses and vans to minimize the transportation costs.arrow_forward

- Hello Dolly, Inc. crafts three styles of dolls: Lexi, Maysy, and Dizzy. Each doll requires sewing time, painting time, and supplies. Sewing machines are available for only 118 hours, only 2805 hours are available for painting, and 390.5 lbs. of supplies are available. Each Lexi doll requires 0.2 hours of sewing, 9 hours of painting, and 0.7 lbs. of supplies. Each Maysy doll requires 0.4 hours of sewing, 10 hours of painting, and uses 0.9 pounds of supplies. Each Dizzy doll requires 0.5 hours of sewing, 7 hours of painting, and 2 pounds of supplies. If the company earns a profit of $145 per Lexi doll, $155 per Maysy doll, and $150 per Dizzy doll, how many of each doll should the company produce to maximize profit? How much profit will result? (Use for the number of Lexi dolls, y for the number of Maysy dolls, and z for the number of Dizzy dolls.) Maximize P = subject to ≤118 ≤2805 <390.5 Enter the solution to the simplex matrix below.

Each chair requires assembly, finishing, and a certain amount of wood to make. The assembly area can be used for at most 10 hours per day. To keep him busy, the finishing person needs to work at least 6 hours per day. Producing a Montegue requires 1 hour of assembly, 2 hour of finishing, and 9 board feet of wood. Producing a Capulet requires 1 hour of assembly, 1 hour of finishing, and 9 board feet of wood. Finally, producing a Verona requires 2 hour of assembly, 1 hour of finishing, and 3 board feet of wood. If the company wants to minimize the amount of cherry wood used, how many should they make of each model? (It is possible to complete a fractional part a chair in a given day; in the long run you end up with completed chairs.) Number of Montegues = Number of Capulets = Number of Veronas = How many board feet of cherry wood would be used each day?arrow_forward
