Business and Economics
37. Production The Bronze Forge produces and ships three different hand-crafted bronze plates: a dogwood-engraved cake plate, a wheat-engraved bread plate, and a lace-engraved dinner plate. Each cake plate requires $15 in materials, 5 hours of labor, and $6 to ship. Each bread plate requires $10 in materials, 4 hours of labor, and $5 to ship. Each dinner plate requires $8 in materials, 4 hours of labor, and $5 to deliver. The profit on the cake plate is $15, on the bread plate is $12, and on the dinner plate is $5. The company has available up to 2700 hours of labor per week. Each week, they can spend at most $1500 on materials and $1200 on delivery. How many of each plate should the company produce to maximize their weekly profit? What is their maximum profit?

- Sales Commissions A saleswoman works at a kiosk that offers three different models of cell phones: standard with 16 GB capacity, deluxe with 32 GB capacity, and super deluxe with 64 GB capacity. For each phone that she sells, she earns a commission based on the cell phone model. One week she sells 9 standard, 11 deluxe, and 8 super-deluxe and makes $740 in commission. The next week she sells 13 standard, 15 deluxe, and 16 super-deluxe for a $1204 commission. The third week she sells 8 standard, 7 deluxe, and 14 super-deluxe, earning $828 in commission. (a) Let x, y, and z represent the commission she earns on standard, deluxe, and super-deluxe, respectively. Translate the given information into a system of equations in x, y, and z. (b) Express the system of equations you found in part (a) as a matrix equation of the form AX=B . (c) Find the inverse of the coefficient matrix A and use it to solve the matrix equation in part (b). How much commission does the saleswoman earn on each model of cell phone?arrow_forwardDiet Program Nicole started a new diet that requires each meal to have 460 calories, 6 g of fiber, and 11 g of fat.
