How many acres should the farmer plant in order to maximize his profit? acres of crop A, and acres of crop B.

Pham can work as many or as few hours as she wants at the college bookstore for $9 per hour. But due to her hectic schedule, she has just 15 hours per week that she can spend working at either the bookstore or other potential jobs. One potential job, at a café, will pay her $12 per hour for up to 6 hours per week. She has another job offer at a garage that will pay her $10 an hour for up to 5 hours per week. And she has a potential job at a daycare center that will pay her $8.50 per hour for as many hours as she can work. If her goal is to maximize the amount of money she can make each week, how many hours will she work at the bookstore?

A toy factory creates miniature steel train engines and box cars. The fabrication department has 3,679 minutes available per week and the assembly and finishing department has 3,099 minutes available per week. Manufacturing one miniature steel train engine requires 8 minutes of fabrication and 5 minutes of assembling and finishing. Manufacturing one miniature steel box car requires 4 minutes of fabrication and 5 minutes of assembling and finishing. The profit on each miniature steel train engine is $8.00 and the profit on each miniature steel box car is $7.25. How many steel train engines and steel box cars should be produced each week to obtain the maximum profit? Find the maximum weekly profit. (Use x for box car and y for train engine.)

Kane Manufacturing has a division that produces two models of grates, model A and model B. To produce each model A grate requires 3 pounds of cast iron and 6 minutes of labor. To produce each model B grate requires 4 pounds of cast iron and 3 minutes of labor. The profit for each model A grate is $1.75, and the profit for each model B grate is $1.25. Available for grate production each day are 1000 pounds of cast iron and 20 labor-hours. Because of an excess inventory of model A grates, management has decided to limit the production of model A grates to no more than 180 grates per day.

A manufacturer produces two models of toy airplanes. It takes the manufacturer 32 minutes to assemble model A and 8 minutes to package it. It takes the manufacturer 20 minutes to assemble model B and 10 minutes to package it. In a given week, the total available time for assembling is 3200 minutes, and the total available time for packaging is 960 minutes. Model A earns a profit of $10 for each unit sold and model B earns a profit of $8 for each unit sold. Assuming the manufacturer is able to sell as many models as it makes, how many units of each model should be produced to maximize the profit for the given week? Note that the ALEKS graphing calculator can be used to make computations easier. k trol Model A: unit(s) Model B: unit(s) Continue 1 Q A 2 option X NO 2 Z W S 5 # 3 ME P X E H command $ 4 D 9 R C % 5 F T A V 6 FO G Y 8 7 B Submit A © 2023 McGraw HRLLC Al Rights Reserved forms of Use | Plicy Center the # WY 8 U Deft FN J N 3 9 K M O < P 1 g

A carpenter builds bookshelves and tables for a living. Each bookshelf takes one box of screws, two 2 ✕ 4's, and three sheets of plywood to make. Each table takes two boxes of screws, four 2 ✕ 4's, and four sheets of plywood. The carpenter has 80 boxes of screws, 145 2 ✕ 4's, and 170 sheets of plywood on hand. In order to maximize their profit using these materials on hand, the carpenter has determined that they must build 12 shelves and 29 tables. How many of each of the materials (boxes of screws, 2 ✕ 4's, and sheets of plywood) are leftover, when the carpenter builds 12 shelves and 29 tables? The carpenter has  boxes of screws,  2 ✕ 4's, and  sheets of plywood leftover.

Suppose that a small company produces two different models of kayaks. A larger model and smaller model. The larger model requires 2 hours of manufacturing, 2 hours for assembly and 3 hours for packaging. The smaller model requires 2 hours for manufacturing, 1 hour for assembly and 2 hours for packaging. Each week the company has 120 hours available for manufacturing, 80 hours available for assembly and 132 hours available for packaging. If the company makes a profit of $75 for each of the larger model manufactured and profit of $60 for each smaller model manufactured, how many of each model should the company produce in order to maximize profit ?
