From my homework

a small manufacturing plant makes three types of inflatabl boats: one-person, two-person, and 4 person models. each boa requires the services of three departments as listed in the tabble. the cutting, assemply, and packaging depepartments have available a masimum of 380,330, and 120 labor-hours per week respectively.
table

collumns are one person, 2 person, 4 person respectivly
rows
cutting 0.5hours 1hour 1.5hour
assembly 0.6hours 0.9hour 1.2hour
packaging 0.2hour 0.3hour 0.5hour

a. how many boats of each type ust be produced each week for the plant to operate at full capacity?
b. how is the production schedule in part a affected if the packaging department is no longer used?
c. how is the production schedule in part a affected if the 4 person boat is no longer produced?

X=number of boats for one-person
y=number of boats for two-person
z=number of boats for four-person

We have the next system of equations.
0.5x+y+1.5z=380
0.6x+0.9y+1.2z=330
0.2x+0.3y+0.5z=120

we can solve this systema of equations by Gauss-Jordan elimination method.

Answer A)
20 boats for one-person
220 boats for two-person
100 boats for four-person.

B)We have 120 hour more of work.
C) We have 100 boats manofactured less. We only manofacture 220 boats for two-person and 20 boats for one-person

Solutions

To solve the problem lets use the variables "x,y, and z"

x=number of boats for one-person
y=number of boats for two-person
z=number of boats for four-person

⇒ System of equations

0.5x+y+1.5z=380
0.6x+0.9y+1.2z=330
0.2x+0.3y+0.5z=120

To solve these equations we have to use the Gauss-Jordan elimination method.

$\left[\begin{array}{ccc}0.5&1&1.5\\0.6&0.9&1.2\\0.2&0.3&0.5\end{array}\right]$

$\left[\begin{array}{ccc}0.5&1&1.5\\0&-0.15&-0.3\\0&-0.05&-16\end{array}\right]$

(0.5R₂-0.6R₁)
(0.5R₃-0.2R₁)

$\left[\begin{array}{ccc}0.5&1&1.5\\0&-0.15&-0.3\\0&0&0.0075\end{array}\right]$

(0.15R₃-0.05R₂)

$\left[\begin{array}{ccc}0.5&1&1.5\\0&-0.15&-0.3\\0&0&1\end{array}\right]$

(R₃/0.0075)

$\left[\begin{array}{ccc}0.5&1&0\\0&0.15&0\\0&0&1\end{array}\right]$

(R₁-1.5R₃)
(R₂+0.3R₃)

$\left[\begin{array}{ccc}0.5&1&0\\0&1&0\\0&0&1\end{array}\right]$

(R₂/-0.15)

$\left[\begin{array}{ccc}1&2&0\\0&1&0\\0&0&1\end{array}\right]$

(2R₁)

$\left[\begin{array}{ccc}1&0&0\\0&1&0\\0&0&1\end{array}\right]$

(R₁-2R₂)

These numbers have to be added to each one

1 - 380, 330, 120
2 - 380, -63, -16
3 - 380, -63, 0.75
4- 380, -63, 100
5 - 230, -33, 100
6 - 230, 220, 100
7 -  460, 220, 100
8 - 20, 220, 100

Answer A)

20 boats for one-person
220 boats for two-person
100 boats for four-person.

B)We have 120 hour more of work.

C) We have 100 boats manufactured less. We only manufacture 220 boats for two-person and 20 boats for one-person

10000

step-by-step explanation: divide by 2,

Answer from: Quest

step-by-step explanation: so we look at the formula un = a + (n-1)d

un is the amount of seats

n is the nth term aka row number

a is the original sequence/row number

d is the difference between each term

so in this a=22 d=6 and n can remain as n because we are simply formjng a rule

lets put these in the equation

un=22+(n-1)(6)

this is your answer to part a

however

lets double check that this is correct, we'll try putting it into the second term

un=a+(n-1)d

u2=22+(2-1)(6)

u2=22+6

u2=28

as the question said the second row has 28 seats so now we know the formula we made is correct.

as for part b

un=a+(n-1)

its asking us to find a row with 100 seats.

remember un was the amount of seata so all we do is substitute this in.

un=100 a=22 d=6

un=a+(n-1)d

100=22+(n-1)(6)

so now we simplify to find n which is the row number.

100-22=22+(n-1)(6)-22

78=(n-1)(6)

78/6=(n-1)(6)/6

13=n-1

13+1=n-1+1

14=n

so now we know that in the 14th row there is 100 seats.

hope this and that you understood! its my first time using the app or anyone out on here : p its also me to revise so a bunch! ask more questions if you dont understand ☺
