Reecca makes machine stitched quilts. It takes 36 hours and 8 yards of material to make a small quilt. It takes 24 hours and 12 yards of material to make a large quilt. She has at most 648 hours and 192 yards of material to use in making quilts. How many of each quilt can she make?
All I really need help with is the first question, It says "Identify your variables and grand totals".
I dont understand what to put for that.
Help with Linear Programming problem?
I read this as follows:
x is the number of small quilts made
y is the number of large quilts made
Set up your constraint equations so that
648 %26gt;= 36x + 24 y
192%26gt;= 8x + 12y
And try to maximize x + y
The answer should be x = 13.2 and y = 7.2
This fully utilizes both resources.
