Chapter 12, Problem 26P
Electrical Engineering
An electrical engineer supervises the production of three types of electrical components. Three kinds of material-metal, plastic, and rubber-are required for production. The amounts needed to produce each component are
| Component | Metal, g/component |
Plastic, g/component |
Rubber, g/component |
| 1 | 15 | 0.30 | 1.0 |
| 2 | 17 | 0.40 | .2 |
| 3 | 19 | 0.55 | 1.5 |
If totals of 3.89, 0.095, and 0.282 kg of metal, plastic, and rubber, respectively, are available each day, how many components can be produced per day?

Blood pressure: A blood pressure measurement consists of two numbers: the systolic pressure, which is the maximum pressure taken
when the heart is contracting, and the diastolic pressure, which is the minimum pressure taken at the beginning of the heartbeat. Blood
pressures were measured, in millimeters, for a sample of 7 adults. The following table presents the results. Do people with higher
diastolic pressure tend to have higher or lower systolic pressures?

- 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.arrow_forwardWhat is a carrying capacity?

Water samples were taken at four different locations in a river in an effort to determine if water pollution varied from location to location. Location I was 500 meters above an industrial plant water discharge point and near the shore. Location II was 200 meters above the discharge point and in midstream. Location III was 50 meters downstream from the discharge point and near the shore. Location IV was 200 meters downstream from the discharge point and in midstream. The following table shows the results. Lower dissolved oxygen readings mean more pollution. Because of the difficulty in getting midstream samples, ecology students collecting the data had fewer of these samples. Use a 5% level of significance. Do we reject or not reject the claim that the quantity of dissolved oxygen does not vary from one location to another?
