Answer to Problem 33E

No, it is not possible.

Explanation of Solution

Given information:

The given information made by the vendor on selling the item is as follows:

    DayNumber of regular espressos sold Number of large espressos sold Total amount made ($)
    Monday 216 162 783
    Thursday 248 186 914

Calculation:

Let the number of large espressos and regular espresso be L and R respectively.

The equation for vendor’s sale on Monday night will be as follows:

  162L+216R=783162L+216R783=0                         [Rearranging in standard form; Ax+By+C=0]

Put the values of the slope and y- intercept in the equation as follows:

  m=AB   and  b=CBm=162216   and  b=783216m=0.75   and  b=3.625

The equation for vendor’s sale on Thursday night will be as follows:

  186L+248R=914186L+248R914=0                         [Rearranging in standard form; Ax+By+C=0]

Put the values of the slope and y- intercept in the equation as follows:

  m=AB   and  b=CBm=186248   and  b=914248m=0.75   and  b=3.685

The slopes of both the equation is same but the value of b is approximately same. So, these are not coinciding functions. It is not possible that the vendor made that amount on Thursday because bb(3.6253.685) .

b.

To determine

To find: whether it is possible that vendor made $1247 on Saturday. Also give explanation for your answer.

Answer to Problem 33E

Yes, it is possible.

Explanation of Solution

Given information:

The given information made by the vendor on selling the item is as follows:

    Day Number of regular espressos sold Number of large espressos sold Total amount made ($)
    Monday 216 162 783
    Saturday 344 258 1247

Calculation:

Let the number of large espressos and regular espresso be L and R respectively.

The equation for vendor’s sale on Monday night will be as follows:

  162L+216R=783162L+216R783=0                         [Rearranging in standard form; Ax+By+C=0]

Put the values of the slope and y- intercept in the equation as follows:

  m=AB   and  b=CBm=162216   and  b=783216m=0.75   and  b=3.625

The equation for vendor’s sale on Saturday night will be as follows:

  258L+344R=1247258L+344R1247=0                         [Rearranging in standard form; Ax+By+C=0]

Put the values of the slope and y- intercept in the equation as follows:

  m=AB   and  b=CBm=258344   and  b=1247344m=0.75   and  b=3.625

The slopes of both the equation is same and the value of b is also same. So, these are coinciding functions. Thus, it is possible that the vendor made that amount on Saturday.
