A bagel store orders cream cheese from three suppliers, Cheesy Cream Corp. (CCC), Super Smooth & Sons (SSS), and Bagel's Best Friend Co. (BBF). One month, the total order of cheese came to 100 tons. (The store does do a booming trade.) The costs were $80, $50 and $65 per ton from the three suppliers respectively, with the total cost amounting to $6,035. Given that the store ordered the same amount from CCC and BBF, how many tons of cream cheese were ordered from each supplier?

Please read the case below. Smyrna University is a private university which is based in İzmir. Smyrna University has gained an excellent reputation for its post-graduate courses, and thus the University has attracted a large number of students who are interested in postgraduate studies and located in Southern and North-Western parts of Turkey. The fees paid by these students make an important contribution to the University’s annual budgeted income. To support the recruitment of students from North-Western and Southern Turkey, the University has established a small department to promote its courses and to liaise with education institutions in Southern and North-Western cities. However, this year there has been a noticeable reduction in the number of applications from Southern and North-Western parts of Turkey. The University authorities are unsure if this is because of the global economic downturn, or if there are other factors causing this reduction. They have decided to conduct…

You are in charge of purchases at the student-run used-book supply program at your college, and you must decide how many introductory calculus, history, and marketing texts should be purchased from students for resale. Due to budget limitations, you cannot purchase more than 1050 of these textbooks each semester. There are also shelf-space limitations: Calculus texts occupy 2 units of shelf space each, history books 1 unit each, and marketing texts 5 units each, and you can spare at most 1,900 units of shelf space for the texts. If the used book program makes a profit of $10 on each calculus text, $4 on each history text, and $8 on each marketing text, how many of each type of text should you purchase to maximize profit?

On February 23, 2011 Matthew Wald blogged in The New York Times that, “a car buyer who lays out an extra $6,200 to buy the hybrid version of the Lexus RX will get the money back in gas savings within five years, according to Consumer Reports magazine, but only if gasoline averages $8.77 a gallon. Otherwise, the nonhybrid RX 350 is a better buy than the Hybrid 450h, the magazine says.”Wald notices that the study assumes:▪ The car will be driven 12,000 miles a year.▪ Gas will cost $2.80 a gallon.▪ The hybrid gets 26 miles per gallon while the nonhybrid gets 21.(a) Show that the computation is wrong—that at $8.77 per gallon of gas you can’t save $6,200 in 60,000 miles of driving.(b) Show that you can save that much with that much driving if gas costs $8.77 per gallon more than $2.80 per gallon.
