Chapter 4.2, Problem 22E
Agriculture A large agricultural firm has 250 acres and $8000 available for cultivating three crops: barley, oats, and wheat. Barley requires $10 per acre for cultivation, oats require $15 per acre for cultivation, and wheat requires $12 per acre for cultivation. Barley requires 7 hours of labor per acre, oats require 9 hours of labor per acre, and wheat requires 8 hours of labor per acre. The firm has 2100 hours of labor available. The profits per acre of each crop are barley $60, oats $75, and wheat $70. How many acres of each crop should be planted to maximize profit?

- LIFE SCIENCE APPLICATIONS Cost Analysis Acme Products sells a machine for doing a certain type of blood test for 40,000, which costs 20 for each use. Amalgamated Medical Supplies sells a similar machine for only 32,000, but it costs 30 for each use. How many times must the machines be used for the total cost to be equal?arrow_forwardRedo Exercise 5, assuming that the house blend contains 300 grams of Colombian beans, 50 grams of Kenyan beans, and 150 grams of French roast beans and the gourmet blend contains 100 grams of Colombian beans, 350 grams of Kenyan beans, and 50 grams of French roast beans. This time the merchant has on hand 30 kilograms of Colombian beans, 15 kilograms of Kenyan beans, and 15 kilograms of French roast beans. Suppose one bag of the house blend produces a profit of $0.50, one bag of the special blend produces a profit of $1.50, and one bag of the gourmet blend produces a profit of $2.00. How many bags of each type should the merchant prepare if he wants to use up all of the beans and maximize his profit? What is the maximum profit?arrow_forwardProduction A small country exports soybeans and flowers. Soybeans require 8 workers per acre, flowers require 12 workers per acre, and 100, 000 workers are available. Government contracts require that there be at least 3 times as many acres of soybeans as flowers planted. It costs 250 per acre to plant soybeans and 300 per acre to plant flowers, and there is a budget of 3 million. If the profit from soybeans is 1600 per acre and the profit from flowers is 2000 per acre, how many acres of each crop should be planted to maximize profit? Find the maximum profit.arrow_forward
