Chapter 5, Problem 12P
Feeding Lab Rabbits A biologist wishes to feed laboratory rabbits a mixture of two types of foods. Type I contains 8 g of fat, 12 g of carbohydrate, and 2 g of protein per ounce. Type II contains 12 g of fat, 12 g of carbohydrate, and 1 g of protein per ounce. Type I costs $0.20 per ounce and type II costs $0.30 per ounce. Each rabbit receives a daily minimum of 24 g of fat, 36 g of carbohydrate, and 4 g of protein, but get no more than 5 oz of food per day. How many ounces of each food type should be fed to each rabbit daily to satisfy the dietary requirements at minimum cost?

In a student's diet a meal consists of beefburgers and chips. Beefburgers have 1 unit of nutrient N1, 4 units of N2,
and 125 calories per ounce. The figures for chips are 1/2 unit of N1, 1 unit of N2, and 60 calories per ounce. In the
interests of the student's health it is essential for the meal to contain at least 7 units of N1 and 22 units of N2.
What should the student ask for on the next visit to the refectory to satisfy the nutrient requirements and
minimize the number of calories?

- 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_forwardCell Phone Plans Gwendolyn is mulling over the three cell phone plans shown in the table.

Three Wheets can be made per minute; each one has two feathers and is sprinkled with one-half ounce of sequin powder. Four Honks can be made in a minute; each one has 3 feathers and one ounce of sequin powder. The manufacturing costs for Toots, Wheets, and Honks are $0.35, $0.40, and $0.50, respectively.

With this filter, the oil and the filter have to be changed every 500 hours of operation, and 5 liters of coil have to be added every 100 hours. This filter costs P148 a piece. Eighty liters of coil fill the engine. Another type, filter B, costing P120 may be used with a lower grade of oil costing P4.80 per liter. However, if this filter is used, the oil and filter have to be changed every 300 hours, and 10 liters are added after each 150 hours the engine is used.
