Sketch the region that corresponds to the given inequalities, say whether the region is bounded or unbounded, and find the coordinates of all corner points (if any). $$ \begin{array}{r} 2 x-y \geq 0 \\ x-3 y \leq 0 \\ x \geq 0, y \geq 0 \end{array} $$

Short Answer

Expert verified
The region corresponding to the given inequalities is a bounded triangle with vertices at (0,0), (0,0), and (0,0), which, in this case, reduces to the single corner point at the origin (0,0).

Step by step solution

01

Rewrite inequalities as equalities

(Write the content here) We will rewrite the given inequalities as equalities to create the lines that define the region. \( \begin{cases} 2x-y= 0\\ x-3y= 0\\ x= 0, y= 0\\ \end{cases}\)
02

Sketch the lines on a coordinate plane

Plot the lines obtained in step 1 on a coordinate plane. The lines are: \(y = 2x\) - a line with slope 2 and intercept (0, 0). \(y = \frac{1}{3}x\) - a line with slope 1/3 and intercept (0, 0). \(x = 0\) - the y-axis. \(y = 0\) - the x-axis.
03

Shade the region that satisfies the inequalities

Now we need to determine which region in the plane satisfies all given inequalities: - For \(2x - y \geq 0\), choose a test point (1, 0). Since \(2(1) - 0 \geq 0\) is true, shade the region to the right of the line \(y = 2x\). - For \(x - 3y \leq 0\), choose a test point (0, 1). Since \(0 - 3(1) \leq 0\) is true, shade the region below the line \(y = \frac{1}{3}x\). - For \(x \geq 0\), shade all regions to the right of the y-axis. - For \(y \geq 0\), shade all regions above the x-axis. The region that satisfies all inequalities is the area in which all shaded regions overlap.
04

Identify whether the region is bounded or unbounded

From the graph, it is evident that the region is bounded because it is enclosed on all sides, forming a triangle.
05

Find coordinates of all corner points

There are three corner points in this region which are intersections of the lines: 1. Intersection of y-axis and the line \(y = 2x\): \(x=0\), \(2(0)-y=0\), so the point is (0, 0). 2. Intersection of x-axis and the line \(y= \frac{1}{3}x\): \(y=0\), \(\frac{1}{3}(0)-y=0\), so the point is (0, 0). This is the same as point 1. 3. Intersection of the lines \(y=2x\) and \(y= \frac{1}{3}x\): \(2x= \frac{1}{3}x\), so \(x=0\) and (in both equations) \(y=0\). Therefore, corner point is (0, 0). In this specific case, there is only one corner point: (0, 0).

f Purchasing Federal Rent-a-Car is putting together a new fleet. It is considering package offers from three car manufacturers. Fred Motors is offering 5 small cars, 5 medium cars, and 10 large cars for \(\$ 500,000\). Admiral Motors is offering 5 small, 10 medium, and 5 large cars for \(\$ 400,000\). Chrysalis is offering 10 small, 5 medium, and 5 large cars for \(\$ 300,000\). Federal would like to buy at least 550 small cars, at least 500 medium cars, and at least 550 large cars. How many packages should it buy from each car maker to keep the total cost as small as possible? What will be the total cost?

Ruff, Inc. makes dog food out of chicken and grain. Chicken has 10 grams of protein and 5 grams of fat per ounce, and grain has 2 grams of protein and 2 grams of fat per ounce. A bag of dog food must contain at least 200 grams of protein and at least 150 grams of fat. If chicken costs 10 e per ounce and grain costs \(1 \phi\) per ounce, how many ounces of each should Ruff use in each bag of dog food in order to minimize cost? HINT [See Example 4.]

In February 2008 , each episode of "American Idol" was typically seen by \(28.5\) million viewers, while each episode of "Back to You" was seen by \(12.3\) million viewers. \(^{15}\) Your marketing services firm has been hired to promote Bald No More's hair replacement process by buying at least 30 commercial spots during episodes of "American Idol" and "Back to You." The cable company running "American Idol" has quoted a price of \(\$ 3,000\) per spot, while the cable company showing "Back to You" has quoted a price of \(\$ 1,000\) per spot. Bald No More's advertising budget for TV commercials is \(\$ 120,000\), and it would like no more than \(50 \%\) of the total number of spots to appear on "Back to You." How many spots should you purchase on each show to reach the most viewers?
