Afarmer has 20 acres to plant in wheat and barley. he has to plant at least 15 acres. wheat costs $200 per acre to plant and barley costs $150 per acre, and the farmer has only $2400 to spend. if the estimated profit of an acre of wheat is $450 and the estimated profit of an acre of barley is $350, how many acres of each should the farmer plant to maximize his profits?

Step-by-step explanation:

A graph shows cost of planting puts an upper limit on planted area. The lower limit is provided by the requirement to plant at least 15 acres. The vertices of the feasible solution region are ...

  (wheat acres, barley acres) = {(0, 15), (0, 16), (3, 12)}

The profit associated with these scenarios will be ...

  for (0, 16): 16·350 = 5600

  for (3, 12): 3·450 +12·350 = 1350 +4200 = 5550

To maximize profit, the farmer should plant 16 acres of barley.

ok one would be money, and the other would be refreshments or something similar. if each bag of popcorn is 5.00 and each drink is half of that that means drinks are 2.50 the proper way to do that would to look and see how much of each you can buy without exceeding a limit of 30.00
