In Example 2 we saw that Airbus A330-300s seat 330 passengers and cost $250 million each, Boeing 767-300ERs seat 270 passengers and cost $200 million each, while Boeing Dreamliner 787-9s seat 240 passengers and cost $250 million each. You are the purchasing manager of an airline company and have a spending goal of $4950 million for the purchase of new aircraft to seat a total of 5850 passengers. Your company has a policy of supporting U.S. industries, and you have been instructed to buy twice as many Boeings as Airbuses. Given the selection of three aircraft, how many of each should you order?

Answers

Answer 1

The number of order of each aircraft is an illustration of simultaneous equations.

You should order 7 Airbus A330-300s, 5 Boeing 767-300ERs and 9 Boeing Dreamliner 787-9s

To do this, we make use of the following representations:

A represents Airbus A330-300sB represents Boeing 767-300ERsC represents Boeing Dreamliner 787-9s

From the question, we have the following equations

[tex]\mathbf{330A + 270B + 240C = 5850}[/tex] ----the number of passengers

[tex]\mathbf{B + C = 2A}[/tex] --- the relationship between the number of planes

[tex]\mathbf{250A + 200B + 240C =4950 }[/tex] --- the budget

Make A the subject in [tex]\mathbf{B + C = 2A}[/tex]

[tex]\mathbf{A=\frac{1}{2}(B + C)}[/tex]

Substitute [tex]\mathbf{A=\frac{1}{2}(B + C)}[/tex] in [tex]\mathbf{330A + 270B + 240C = 5850}[/tex]

[tex]\mathbf{330 \times \frac{1}{2}(B + C) + 270B + 240C = 5850}[/tex]

[tex]\mathbf{165B + 165C + 270B + 240C = 5850}[/tex]

[tex]\mathbf{435B + 405C = 5850}[/tex]

Divide through by 15

[tex]\mathbf{29B + 27C = 390}[/tex]

Make C the subject

[tex]\mathbf{C = \frac{390 - 29B}{27}}[/tex]

Substitute [tex]\mathbf{A=\frac{1}{2}(B + C)}[/tex] in [tex]\mathbf{250A + 200B + 240C =4950 }[/tex]

[tex]\mathbf{250 \times \frac{1}{2}(B + C) + 200B + 240C =4950 }[/tex]

[tex]\mathbf{125B + 125C + 200B + 240C =4950 }[/tex]

[tex]\mathbf{325B + 365C =4950 }[/tex]

Divide through by 5

[tex]\mathbf{65B + 73C =990}[/tex]

Substitute [tex]\mathbf{C = \frac{390 - 29B}{27}}[/tex]

[tex]\mathbf{65B + 73\times\frac{390 - 29B}{27} =990}[/tex]

Multiply through by 27

[tex]\mathbf{65B \times 27+ 73\times(390 - 29B) =990 \times 27}[/tex]

[tex]\mathbf{1755B+ 28470 - 2117B =26730}[/tex]

Collect like terms

[tex]\mathbf{1755B- 2117B =26730 - 28470}[/tex]

[tex]\mathbf{-362B =-1740}[/tex]

Solve for B

[tex]\mathbf{B =\frac{1740}{362}}[/tex]

[tex]\mathbf{B =5}[/tex] --- approximated

Substitute [tex]\mathbf{B =5}[/tex] in [tex]\mathbf{C = \frac{390 - 29B}{27}}[/tex]

[tex]\mathbf{C = \frac{390 - 29 \times 5}{27}}}[/tex]

[tex]\mathbf{C = \frac{245}{27}}}[/tex]

[tex]\mathbf{C = 9}[/tex] --- approximated

Recall that: [tex]\mathbf{A=\frac{1}{2}(B + C)}[/tex]

So, we have:

[tex]\mathbf{A = \frac{1}{2} \times (5 + 9)}[/tex]

[tex]\mathbf{A = \frac{1}{2} \times 14}[/tex]

[tex]\mathbf{A = 7}[/tex]

Hence, you should order 7 Airbus A330-300s, 5 Boeing 767-300ERs and 9 Boeing Dreamliner 787-9s

Step-by-step explanation:

side A / side B = 4/9

side A = 12 yards

=>

12 / side B = 4/9

12 = side B × 4/9

9×12 = side B × 4

side B = 9×12/4 = 9×3 = 27 yards

perimeter of B is 4×side B = 4×27 = 108 yards

so first of all we need to get rid of the time that isn't spent in class, because the question is asking about the time spent in class. so we would add 30+42 giving us 72 minutes, or 1 hour and 12 minutes. Now we can subtract 1 hour and 12 minutes from 7 hours to find the total time spent in class. Which would give us 5 hours and 48 minutes. (reminder; 60 minutes in 1 hour)

now that we have the total time spent in class, all that is left is division. The equation would be easier to solve when the hours are converted into minutes. 5 hours and 48 minutes equal, 348 minutes. Now we would divide 348 by 6 as there are 6 classes that take 348 minutes in all, and we wanna find how long 1 class takes. 348 divided by 6 would then give us 58. so each class takes 58 minutes.

What are the main superorders for the class Monocotyledonae? An Excerpt from Optimismby Helen Keller1 Could we choose our environment, and were desire in human undertakings synonymous withendowment, all men would, I suppose, be optimists. Certainly most of us regard happiness asthe proper end of all earthly enterprise. The will to be happy animates alike the philosopher, theprince and the chimney-sweep. No matter how dull, or how mean, or how wise a man is, he feelsthat happiness is his indisputable right.2 It is curious to observe what different ideals of happiness people cherish, and in what singularplaces they look for this well-spring of their life. Many look for it in the hoarding of riches, somein the pride of power, and others in the achievements of art and literature; a few seek it in theexploration of their own minds, or in the search for knowledge.3 Most people measure their happiness in terms of physical pleasure and material possession.Could they win some visible goal which they have set on the horizon, how happy they would be!Lacking this gift or that circumstance, they would be miserable. If happiness is to be someasured, I who cannot hear or see have every reason to sit in a corner with folded hands andweep. If I am happy in spite of my deprivations, if my happiness is so deep that it is a faith, sothoughtful that it becomes a philosophy of life,if, in short, I am an optimist, my testimony tothe creed of optimism is worth hearing....4 Once I knew the depth where no hope was, and darkness lay on the face of all things. Thenlove came and set my soul free. Once I knew only darkness and stillness. Now I know hope andjoy. Once I fretted and beat myself against the wall that shut me in. Now I rejoice in theconsciousness that I can think, act and attain heaven. My life was without past or future; death,the pessimist would say, a consummation devoutly to be wished. But a little word from thefingers of another fell into my hand that clutched at emptiness, and my heart leaped to therapture of living. Night fled before the day of thought, and love and joy and hope came up in apassion of obedience to knowledge. Can anyone who has escaped such captivity, who has feltthe thrill and glory of freedom, be a pessimist?5 My early experience was thus a leap from bad to good. If I tried, I could not check themomentum of my first leap out of the dark; to move breast forward is a habit learned suddenlyat that first moment of release and rush into the light. With the first word I used intelligently, Ilearned to live, to think, to hope. Darkness cannot shut me in again. I have had a glimpse of theshore, and can now live by the hope of reaching it.6 So my optimism is no mild and unreasoning satisfaction. A poet once said I must be happybecause I did not see the bare, cold present, but lived in a beautiful dream. I do live in abeautiful dream; but that dream is the actual, the present,not cold, but warm; not bare, butfurnished with a thousand blessings.
