In \(1978,\) a ruling by the Civil Aeronautics Board allowed Federal Express to purchase larger aircraft. Federal Express's options included 20 Boeing 727 s that United Airlines was retiring and/or the French-built Dassault Fanjet Falcon \(20 .\) To aid in their decision, executives at Federal Express analyzed the following data: $$\begin{array}{lcc}\hline & \text { Boeing 727 } & \text { Falcon 20 } \\\\\hline \text { Direct Operating cost } & \$ 1400 \text { per hour } & \$ 500 \text { per hour } \\\\\text { Payload } & 42,000 \text { pounds } & 6000 \text { pounds }\end{array}$$ Federal Express was faced with the following constraints: \(\cdot\) Hourly operating cost was limited to \(\$ 35,000 .\) \(\cdot\) Total payload had to be at least \(672,000\) pounds. \(\cdot\) Only twenty 727 s were available. Given the constraints, how many of each kind of aircraft should Federal Express have purchased to maximize the number of aircraft?
Graphing utilities can be used to shade regions in the rectangular coordinate system, thereby graphing an inequality in two variables Read the section of the user's manual for your graphing utility that describes how to shade a region. Then use your graphing utility to graph the inequalities in Exercises 97-102. $$3 x-2 y \geq 6$$
Determine whether each statement makes sense or does not make sense, and explain your reasoning. Because \((x+3)^{2}\) consists of two factors of \(x+3,1\) set up the following partial fraction decomposition: $$\frac{5 x+2}{(x+3)^{2}}=\frac{A}{x+3}+\frac{B}{x+3}$$

Use a system of linear equations to solve. Looking for Mr. Goodbar? It's probably not a good idea if you want to look like Mr. Universe or Julia Roberts. The graph shows the four candy bars with the highest fat content, representing grams of fat and calories in each bar. Based on the graph. (GRAPH CAN'T COPY) A rectangular lot whose perimeter is 360 feet is fenced along three sides. An expensive fencing along the lot's length costs \(\$ 20\) per foot and an inexpensive fencing along the two side widths costs only \(\$ 8\) per foot. The total cost of the fencing along the three sides comes to \(\$ 3280\). What are the lot's dimensions?
