Bodybuilding Supplements Exercises 33-36 are based on the following data on four bodybuilding supplements. (Figures shown correspond to a single serving.)15
Creatine (grams) | L-Glutamine (grams) | BCAAs (grams) | Cost ($) | |
Xtend (SciVation) | 0 | 2.5 | 7 | 1.00 |
Gainz (MP Hardcore) | 2 | 3 | 6 | 1.10 |
Stronbgevity (Bill Phillips) | 2.5 | 1 | 0 | 1.20 |
Muscle Physique (EAS) | 2 | 2 | 0 | 1.00 |
Your friend’s new personal trainer suggests that she supplement with no more than 20 grams of creatine but at least 20 grams of L-glutamine and 42 grams of BCAAs each week. She is thinking of combining Xtend and Strongevity to create a week's supply that meets her new trainer's specifications.
a. Can she combine the products in such a way that the number of servings of Xtend exceeds that of Strongevity by as much as possible? If so, how many servings of each should she combine? If not, explain why not.
b. Can she combine the products in such a way that the number of servings of Strongevity exceeds that of Xtend by as much as possible? If so, how many servings of each should she combine? If not, explain why not.

- 3. A different 7-Eleven has a bank of slurpee fountain heads. Their available flavors are as follows: Mountain Dew, Mountain Dew Code Red, Grape, Pepsi and Mountain Dew Livewire. You fill five different cups full with each type of flavor. How many different ways can you arrange the cups in a line if exactly two Mountain Dew flavors are next to each other? 3.2.1arrow_forwardBusinessarrow_forwardWhat is the area of this figure? 5 mm 4 mm 3 mm square millimeters 11 mm Submit 8 mm Work it out 9 mmarrow_forward

- Determine whether each function is an injection and determine whether each is a surjection.The notation Z_(n) refers to the set {0,1,2,...,n-1}. For example, Z_(4)={0,1,2,3}. f: Z_(6) -> Z_(6) defined by f(x)=x^(2)+4(mod6). g: Z_(5) -> Z_(5) defined by g(x)=x^(2)-11(mod5). h: Z*Z -> Z defined by h(x,y)=x+2y. j: R-{3} -> R defined by j(x)=(4x)/(x-3).arrow_forwardDetermine whether each function is an injection and determine whether each is a surjection.arrow_forwardLet A = {a, b, c, d}, B = {a,b,c}, and C = {s, t, u,v}. Draw an arrow diagram of a function for each of the following descriptions. If no such function exists, briefly explain why. (a) A function f : AC whose range is the set C. (b) A function g: BC whose range is the set C. (c) A function g: BC that is injective. (d) A function j : A → C that is not bijective.arrow_forward
