Your boss hands you the monthly data that show the number of orders coming into and out of the warehouse. the data are in the table below. explain to your boss, in complete sentences, the solution to this system and what the solution represents. hint: month is the x value and no. of orders is the y are 2 tables squished together into 1 table. month no. of orders in no. of orders out january (1) 3 1 february (2) 4 3 march (3) 6 5 april (4) 7 7

The number of orders in is equal to the number of orders out in month 4 (April). It appears the solution represents the time at which warehouse shipments caught up with order quantities.

_____

For this table to make any sense, we have to assume that the year started with 3 orders in January, and that one order was shipped in January. Then the number of orders was 1 or 2 each month after that, and the number of orders shipped per month was 2 each month after that. That is, the tables represent year-to-date totals of orders in and out.

Alternate Interpretation

If the numbers here are actual orders in and out in each of the listed months, it appears the warehouse is getting better at shipping orders. That is, they are increasing the shipment rate by 2 orders a month each month. They will eventually ship enough to cover the total number of orders in (total of 20 by April), but total shipments through April only amount to 16 orders.

answer: evaluate the objective function at each vertex to determine which - and -values, if any, maximize or minimize the function. example: find the minimum value and maximum value of the objective function f ( x , y ) = 4 x + 5 y , subject to the following constraints

logv3(x+2)=1

rewrite in exponential form:

logb(x) = y is equal to b^y =x

b = 3, y = 1

now solve for x:

3^1 = x+2)

x = 3-2

x = 1
