A tire manufacturer has 1000 units of raw rubber to use in producing radial tires for passenger cars and tractor tires. Each radial tire requires 5 units of rubber; each tractor tire requires 20 units. Labor costs are $80 for a radial tire and $120 for a tractor tire. Suppose the manufacturer does not wish to pay more than $15,000 in labor costs and wishes to make a profit of $100 per radial tire and $250 per tractor tire. How many of each kind of tire should be made in order to maximize profit

180 Passenger Car Tires and 5 Tractor Tires should be produced in order to maximize profit.

Step-by-step explanation:

Here, we can form two equations from the given situation.

First, we are given that the total raw tube units are 1000. And 5 units are required for passenger car tire, while 20 units are required for tractor tire. So, the equation becomes:

5 x + 20 y = 1000   eqn (1)

where,

x = no. of passenger car tires produced

y = no. of tractor tires produced

Another condition is given that, maximum labor cost should be $ 15,000. Since, the labor cost is $80 for a passenger tire and $120 for a tractor tie. Thus, the equation becomes:

80 x + 120 y = 15000   eqn (2)

Solving eqn (1) and eqn (2), simultaneously, we get:

x = 180

y = 5

Therefore,

No. of Passenger Car Tires Produced = x = 180

No. of Tractor Tires Produced = y = 5

i think it would be 43 movies that would have to be watched.

step-by-step explanation:

think about it. for the second plan, every month is 8 dollars. 8 x 12= 96. so thats the number for the second plan. now for the first plan, its annual meaning you have to pay 10 dollars every year. so now you have to get an equivalent amount of 86 since 96-10=86. 86 divided by 2 since every movie costs 2$ then you would have to watch 43 movies a year to get the same as the second plan. i really hoped this . have a wonderful day as well!
