Question 762205: PLEASE HELP! This is my question;
You are about to take a test that contains computation problems worth 6 points each and word problems worth 10 points each. You can do a computation problem in 2 minutes and a word problem in 4 minutes. You have 40 minutes to take the test and may answer no more than 12 problems.
What is the range for the feasible region?
Answer by solver91311(24713) (Show Source): You can put this solution on YOUR website!
It depends. You need to let the number of computation problems be one of your linear variables and the number of word problems be the other linear variable. The range of your feasible area is the set of possible feasible values for the variable that you assign to the vertical axis, presuming you are using the term "range" correctly. Either way, you know that you cannot answer an negative number of either type of question, so you know for certain that the lower limit on your range interval is zero.
So set up your two constraint inequalities in addition to the two trivial ones
and
, and then compute the
-intercepts for each of the boundary lines for the two non-trivial constraints. The smaller
-coordinate will be the upper limit of the range.
