Cranberry juice costs $6.30 per quart and apple juice costs $3.60 per quart. Terrence wants to know how many quarts q of cranberry juice he should mix with 4 quarts of apple juice to make cranberry-apple juice. He also wants to sell the juice at cost for $4.50 per quart. Which equation below represents the situation? OA 3.60(q – 4) + 25.20 = 4.50g B. 3.60q + 25.20 = 4.50(g + 4) C. 6.30(q-4) + 14.40 = 4.50q D. 6.30q + 14.40 = 4.50(q + 4)

Cholesterol Cholesterol in human blood is necessary, but too much can lead to health problems. There are three main types of cholesterol: HDL (high-density lipoproteins), LDL (low-density lipoproteins), and VLDL (very low-density lipoproteins). HDL is considered “good” cholesterol; LDL and VLDL are considered “bad” cholesterol. A standard fasting cholesterol blood test measures total cholesterol, HDL cholesterol, and triglycerides. These numbers are used to estimate LDL and VLDL, which are difficult to measure directly. Your doctor recommends that your combined LDL/VLDL cholesterol level be less than 130 milligrams per deciliter, your HDL cholesterol level be at least 60 milligrams per deciliter, and your total cholesterol level be no more than 200 milligrams per deciliter. (a) Write a system of linear inequalities for the recommended cholesterol levels. Let x represent the HDL cholesterol level, and let y represent the combined LDL VLDL cholesterol level. (b) Graph the system of inequalities from part (a). Label any vertices of the solution region. (c) Is the following set of cholesterol levels within the recommendations? Explain. LDL/VLDL: 120 milligrams per deciliter HDL: 90 milligrams per deciliter Total: 210 milligrams per deciliter (d) Give an example of cholesterol levels in which the LDL/VLDL cholesterol level is too high but the HDL cholesterol level is acceptable. (e) Another recommendation is that the ratio of total cholesterol to HDL cholesterol be less than 4 (that is, less than 4 to 1). Identify a point in the solution region from part (b) that meets this recommendation, and explain why it meets the recommendation.

Company X has 10 employees, each placing an average of 20 minutes of long-distance calls per day. The average call lasts 5 minutes. It has been determined that 20% of the calls are made during busy hour. A total of 4 external phone lines are used to place the pool of calls. Calculate the traffic flow in Erlang during the busy hour.

Gulf Coast Electronics is ready to award contracts to suppliers for providing reservoir capacitors for use in its electronic devices. For the past several years, Gulf Coast Electronics has relied on two suppliers for its reservoir capacitors: Able Controls and Lyshenko Industries. A new firm, Boston Components, inquired into the possibility of providing a portion of the reservoir capacitors needed by Gulf Coast. The quality of products provided by Lyshenko Industries has been extremely high; in fact, only 0.5% of the capacitors provided by Lyshenko had to be discarded because of quality problems. Able Controls has also had a high quality level historically, producing an average of only 1% unacceptable capacitors. Because Gulf Coast Electronics has had no experience with Boston Components, it estimated Boston’s defective rate to be 10%. Gulf Coast would like to determine how many reservoir capacitors should be ordered from each firm to obtain 75,000 acceptable-quality capacitors to use…
QUESTION A sales representative for Pinnacle Golf, a manufacturer of golf balls, is attempting to convince the pro shop manager of the Whistling Straits Golf Club to carry their recently introduced new line of golf balls that have a larger distance than any of the existing balls that the shop is currently selling. While the “extra” distance is a feature that should make the balls more attractive, the new balls are more expensive than the current balls. If the company’s claim about the new balls is found to be accurate, then the manager will carry the new line of balls. To test the new balls, the pro shop manager asked the club’s golf pro to hit 100 of the top-selling brand of balls and 100 of the new balls. The distance traveled by both the new and current balls was recorded. For this scenario, which of the following would be the proper set of hypotheses? Use the scenario from above question : The manager ran the following output, none of which might be correct. What should…
A grocery is supplied from 3 suppliers Fi(i = 1,2,3) who have: F1 of 5 trucks, F2 of 4 trucks and F3 of 6 trucks. The grocery is planned for a period of time, 12 trucks of goods. The transport from each supplier costs 40 monetary unitsfor F1, 60 monetary units for F2, respectively 50 monetary units for F3. Establish a supply schedule from the three suppliers so that the total cost of transport is as low as possible(minim cost). Observation: This is a linear program problem, i need only the mathematical model without solutions for the system, i only need those inequations.

A small entrepreneurial company is trying to decide between developing twodifferent products that they believe they can sell to two potential companies, one large andone small. If they develop Product A,they have a 50% chance of selling it to the largecompany with annual purchases of about 20,000 units.If the large company won't purchaseit, then they think they have an 80% chance of placing it with a smaller company, with salesof 15,000 units.On the other hand if they develop Product B, they feel they have a 40%chance of selling it to the large company, resulting in annual sales of about 17,000 units. If the large company doesn't buy it, they have a 50% chance of selling it to the small company with sales of…
Consider an individual who is risk-loving instead of risk-averse. a. Is U(I) concave or convex?b. Suppose this person is offered an actuarially fair insurance product that guarantees her a certain income, E[I]. Graph the consumer surplus this person receives from buying this insurance as p, the probability of being sick, varies from 0 to 1. You should plot p on the horizontal axis and consumer surplus on the vertical axis.c. Suppose, finally, that this person is offered a subsidy (perhaps from her parents) for buying insurance so that, if she buys insurance, she will be guaranteed an income γ E[I], where γ >1. With the subsidy, insurance is now actuarially unfair in her favor. Graph how her consumer surplus (M) changes as p, the probability of being sick, varies from 0 to 1. [Hint: draw a coordinate plane with p on the x-axis and M on the y-axis.] Based on this graph, under what conditions is she least likely to buy the subsidized insurance?
