3.) Mr. Richards and Mr. Dolge each began improving their yards over the summer by buying bags of soil (fancy dirt) and bags of mulch (bark dust). Since Mr. Dolge has access to a truck, Mr. Richards got a ride and as a result they got their supplies from the same store. Mr. Dolge spent $97 on 3 bags of soil and 14 bags of mulch. Mr. Richards got 14 bags of soil and 7 bags of mulch for $161. They forgot to get a receipt, but just in case they need more supplies, they are wondering how much each bag of soil will cost, and how much each bag of mulch will cost. What should they find these prices to be?

Suppose Nathan, Regina and Maxine go to a donut shop. Nathan buys 3 almond lover, 3 Bavarian kreme and 4 chocolate frosted donuts and ends up spending $14.40. Regina gets 6 of the almond lover, 7 Bavarian kreme and 3 chocolate frosted donuts for a total cost of $27.34. Lastly, Maxine spends $28.31 on 4 almond lover, 8 Bavarian kreme, and 7 chocolate frosted donuts. Assuming x = # of almond lover donuts, y = # of Bavarian kreme donuts, and 2 =# of chocolate frosted donuts, express the system of equations in augmented matrix form below: x y constant How much does each type of donut cost?

A spider lived in a room that measured 30 feet long by 12 feet wide by 12 feet high. One day, the spider spied an incapacitated fly across the room, and of course wanted to crawl to it as quickly as possible. The spider was on an end wall, one foot from the ceiling and six feet from each of the long walls. The fly was stuck one foot from the floor on the opposite wall, also midway between the two long walls. Knowing some geometry, the spider cleverly took the shortest possible route to the fly and ate it for lunch. How far did the spider crawl? S. • F
A farmer has 300 acres on which to plant two crops, celery andlettuce. Each acre of celery costs $250 to plant and tend,and each acre of lettuce costs $300 to plant and tend. Thefarmer has $81,000 available to cover these costs.a) Suppose the farmer makes a profit of $45 per acre ofcelery and $50 per acre of lettuce. Write the profitfunction, determine how many acres of celery and lettuce he should plant to maximize profit, and state themaximum profit. (Hint: Since the graph of the profitfunction is a plane, you will not need to check theinterior for possible critical points.)b) Suppose the farmer’s profit function is instead P(x, y) = - x2 - y2 + 600y- 75,000. Assuming the same constraints, how many acres of celery andlettuce should he plant to maximize profit, and whatis that maximum profit?
