Snookers Lumber can convert logs into either lumber or plywood. In a given day, the mill turns out twice as many units of plywood as lumber. It makes a profit of $30 on a unit of lumber and $40 on a unit of plywood. How many of each unit must be produced and sold in order to make a profit of $11330?
\n" ); document.write( "---------------
\n" ); document.write( "Let # of lumber units = \"m\"
\n" ); document.write( "Let # of plywood units = \"p\"
\n" ); document.write( "---------------------
\n" ); document.write( "Quantity Eq.: p = 2m
\n" ); document.write( "Value Eq: 40p + (30)2m = 11330 dollars
\n" ); document.write( "-----------------
\n" ); document.write( "Substitute:
\n" ); document.write( "40(2m) + 30*m = 11330
\n" ); document.write( "110m = 11330
\n" ); document.write( "m = 103 units (# of units of lumber produced)
\n" ); document.write( "p = 2m = 206 units (# of units of plywood produced)
\n" ); document.write( "====================
